If Jacob Skov Olesen finishes with ten straight pars after back-to-back birdies at 7 and 8, I feel like he should get some sort of reward. Was 6-over after two holes and 10-over after 6. If he somehow plays his last twelve in a boring bogey-free 2-under, he should win something.
He just putted off the green into the rough, so... probably not gonna finish with ten straight pars.
WWT Championship Picks:
- Rasmus Højgaard (70/1; 8 Places)
- Erik van Rooyen (85/1; 5)
- Kensei Hirata (225/1; 8)
- Nick Dunlap (275/1; 8)
- Camilo Villegas (500/1; 12)
You know it's gonna be a good week when I've got Camilo Villegas on the card.
TOTO Japan Classic Picks:
- Shiho Kuwaki (12/1 Win)
- Sayaka Takahashi (150/1; 5 Places)
I think every single win only bet I've done on the LPGA this year has led to a Top 5 but no win so there's free money going for a Top 5 bet on Shiho!
One of the worst putters this year gaining a million strokes on the greens in three rounds, and he certainly doesn't live in Scottsdale. Another win for the devil! Good to see him find it again, though!
No issue missing out on Miyū. Ridiculous year! Thought somebody up top would win which is why I kept it light. Esther (T9) did beat her over the weekend but the slow start killed her. Mostly just annoyed that I didn't back PR-B (who I liked a lot but just threw in one double).
Maybank Championship Picks:
- Esther Henseleit (50/1; 5 Places)
- Erika Hara (125/1; 5)
Considered just going with Erika but like Esther enough to include. Top of the board's terrifying. Will be doubling Hae-ran with Clark but taking the third favourite at 8/1 isn't for me.
Mexico Open Picks:
- Max Homa (41/1 Win; 7/1 Top 5 inc. ties)
- Kevin Yu (64/1 Win; 17/2 Top 5 inc. ties)
- Joel Dahmen (200/1; 6 Places)
Put some free bets on Wyndham Clark at 12/1 too just to make sure that if Scottsdale wins, we all win.
Did everyone else realise that you basically have to be a Scottsdale guy (Rahm, Finau, Knapp) or have a deal with the devil (Campbell) to win at Vidanta Vallarta? Good news for Wyndham Clark (Scottsdale & Devil) and Max Homa (just Scottdale, I think). Joel Dahmen, too, I guess.
Trying to work out how insane it would be to bet somebody (who's on my blacklist) coming off the two worst ballstriking weeks of his career at 60/1 just because the rest of the board is so sad looking. Three weeks is a long time to get your game back in working order, though...
Wow... Christo Lamprecht has been disgustingly bad this year, huh? 15 MCs in 20 and no finish better than a T48. I knew he'd not been good but don't think I realised how bad it was.
I've had Yuto Katsuragawa at 200/1 on the DPWT this year, Yoshida at 500/1 on the LPGA and Smotherman at 500/1 on the PGA. All longshots I chased wins on earlier in the year hitting in the same week. Maybe I should just have the same card every week on every Tour until it works.
