1st other tours This is ugly and got worse as I was checking a thread from early in year I noticed on E/W I only subtracted 1/2 unit and went thru all threads and found 2 other occasions.Thankful these tours were played sparingly.
Euro
Outrights - 5 units
Parlay/Combo's -1 unit
Matches 1-1
Seniors
Outrights - 5.75 units

matches 0-1
Buy.com matches 0-1
Totally sucked on these tours and in 2002 will post on pga and Seniors and coatail the rest for most part.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
PGA was much better.
Matches 302-261(Plays posted in 2000 229-196)
Parlays/Combos - 9.9 units (no records 2000)
Outrights +18.25 (no records 2000)
Notes: Totals (over/unders) wagered on year were 12-9 props (cuts) were 0-2.
Had 49 pushes that if wagered in ties lose scenario would make golf punting cost prohibited in my view.
Of the 302 wins 85 were @ plus odds including +100.Had 15 @ better than +120:
240,180,165,160,155,150,140,135,135,130,130,130,130,125,122.
Had 11 losers of over -120:
160,130,130,125,125,125,125,124,123,122,122:
Most embarrasing stat.Had 5 double plays that went 0-3-2.
While posted plays showed profit in outrights and minus in combo/parlay the reverse was true from my stand point of plays posted and not posted.Hit several good parlays and combo's that were not posted.Will not be posting them next year as for most part they are for amusement and luck plays big factor.
Outrights were basically a disaster from E/W standpoint.After watching my Euro comrades beat these consistantly past couple of years thought I'd venture out at start of year and sent $1000 to Surrey.Played $10 E/W
on 3 tours at 3plays/tour.Didn't take me long to figure out that I didn't have the knack to pick the longshots that build your stake.Concluded that I couldn't over come what I relate to as the cheese factor.
By that I mean in scenario with 3 E/W plays on 3 tours I had total of 18 bets 9 to win and 9 to place.
The win cheese:I lost 6 wagers before they tee off.
The place cheese:again on 6 of these wagers the best I could hope for is 1/2 of posted place odds considering I had to make additional win wager to get it.Then in event of tie ,which happened too frequently,odds were cut even further.
I can't emphasize enough how in awe I am of my UK buds who beat these odds year in and year out.
Will stick to place only wagers at Oly next year for most part.Was happy with return considering 1/2 unit plays.Will however have E/W account for seniors which I will look into more next year and to coat tail our UK elite on the Euro and LPGA.
