Shankie, I said it before (one day before the Open if you go back to the older part of the thread) and I'll say it again, drop $1250 on ZJ... 100k win!

 

 

My bets:

 

Zach Johnson $190 @ 80-1

Phil Mickelson $108 @ 28-1

Dustin Johnson $142 @ 14-1

Reteif Goosen $50 @ 200-1

 

If Zach wins I'll eat my hat.. :) Those 288yds par-3 etc.. He's a great ballstriker and putter, so he could perhaps keep out of trouble but he will be far away from the greens and have major trouble with holding them on his approach. Those +60 feet putts will take it's toll when greens dry out this weekend.

I bet on Dustin Johnson(14:1), Jordan Spieth(10:1) and Aaron Wise(my alma mater)(500:1)

 

Obviously pulling hard for Wise!

Thx!...I thought I bet 30.00 on DJ at 14:1 but it turns out I had 50.00 on him.

 

Ok, who are the good bets for British ("The")Open?....:).

I had $75 on him at $19! Glad he finally closed one out. He is a massive chance at the Open.

I just bet Bryson DeChambeau at 35:1....he is swinging well and super motivated.

 

I was thinking about that, but I cannot bet on someone who wears a newsie hat on the course in 2016.

They still pay out if he wins, right?

I got in a live bet for Hurley yesterday when he hit a shot tight to have a shot at -9 and just before Rahm went bogey to go to -10

 

$75 @ 16-1 Hurley

i added in a Danny Willet $143 @ 16-1 in there too...

 

i may have got really silly and parlayed all three (bubba, rahm, willett) for a very small amount, just for the "Go ApeD*ck" factor.

I have gone initially for the following:

 

£10 E/W (1/5 odds for places 1-8) on Patrick Reed 60/1 ; Andy Sullivan 66/1 ; Chris Wood 80/1 ; Scott Piercy 100/1 ; Tyrell Hatton 125/1 ; Ernie Els 125/1 ; Richie Ramsay 200/1.

 

£5 E/W (ditto) on K-T Kim 300/1 ; Robert Rock 400/1 ; Anthony Wall 500/1 ; Scott Gregory (am) 500/1

 

 

If I was a "large stakes" man I'd be tempted by Adam Scott and the inevitable DJ ... but as I am cheap I like my odds a little longer :)

The 2016 Open Championship! This is a hard one, but there are some interesting sleeper picks. Last weeks Scottish Open gave an interesting preview. A Noren won and that wasn't really a surprise. He is an excellent player in the wind. A bunch of guys were pretty close, but I think Tyrrell Hatton was the most interesting player out of those (his putter was not as good as it can be). Stenson and Mickelson both had some real up and downs and I don't know what to make of that, but they are both great players for this tournament. Stenson won 3 weeks ago, but has been a bit shaky other than that the last few months. I think I'll pass, but keep an eye on them if I get good live bet value.

 

J Day should be the favourite and at 10x I think he is a good pick. Z Johnson at 67x is also very good value.

 

The 2016 Open Championship

 

Jason Day 10x $300

Alex Noren 91x $150

Zach Johnson 67x $150

Tyrell Hatton 126x $80

 

Total: $680

 

Funds: $8260

Live bet on Haydn Porteous (current leader, but a long shot). However, I have seen this guy play and he is super long, has game and I think he's an upcoming star. Next star from South Africa, probably a bit early to win a major but if he's the real deal you never know (born 1994).

 

Live bet:

Haydn Porteous 58x $80

 

Funds: $8180
