No thread on this unless I've missed it?
Third year running at the Park Royal GC, Turin, all the talk of Dodo Molinari's return from injury, with big brother Francesco favourite.
Thorbjorn Olesen seems very popular, think I'll take a chance on Richard Sterne at 40's. Looks to be on the mend now from a long speight of injury woes, nine straight cuts in a row and four top tens in there including last week in Holland.
50/1 Fredrik Andersson-Hed. In and out type of player but happy to let last week's missed cut pass and back him on a course where he won in 2010. 2nd and 3rd at Crans and Gleneagles and the T15 here last year was a good showing as defending champ.
Graeme Storm is available to back at 123.00 on here. Not everyone's cup of tea and played like a man desperate for the points last week when finishing top 5 in Holland. No worries about him keeping his card now so hoping he'll be a bit more relaxed on a course where he finished T7 last year.

Wiesberger was my player of choice and I admit at 40/1 he would have been a hefty bet but I simply cannot pull the trigger at the price offered - maybe a bet in running.
Tommy Fleetwood came to the tour with great expectations but has struggled most of the year but there are signs he is turning it around to keep his card. Whilst he has no course form it should suit, he has some great Italian form and his big win on the Challenge Tour came this week last year and he was 2nd the corresponding week the year before 0.25 ew 110/1 The one player who jumped out at me as being overpriced was Raphael Jacquelin - the three time European tour winner won in Italy last year (well Sicily!), was 2nd here in 2009 and already has a 3rd and 5th in decent events this season - the place part is definitely out of line 0.3 ew 80/1 Garth Mulroy is my thought from a bit leftfield although he hasn't got any course form this weeks venue reminds me a bit of Leopard Creek (without the wildlife) where Mulroy won in November and there are plenty of correlations between players performing well at both venues. Mulroy is a fairly long, wayward driver which should be suited here and has been mixing his year up playing in Europe and on the PGA tour. He is a quality player when on song and has won twice on the Web.com tour in recent years so if the course does indeed suit the price tag is big 0.2 ew 200/1 The young Italian Domenico Geminiani could be the surprise package this week. He made his debut here in 2010 at the tender age of fourteen and finished last whilst last year he just missed the cut. He has much more golf under his belt and has turned pro! and has a best finish of 6th on the Challenge Tour so he certainly has game. The main reason I am interested is the reason he actually is invited to play - it is his home course 0.1 ew 500/1 + 0.1 top 10 40/1 + 0.1 ew Rd 1 leader 300/1 I was looking at picking a Scot to carry on the good form of Scottish golfers and maybe be inspired by a certain tennis player so have had a snall saver on Forsyth who has some good form here and won at another Trent Jones snr course Santo de Serra where past winners of this Vancsik has won and Fred Hed has finished 2nd - worth a tenner at 500 on Betfair |

As theres no pga im have a small play in this
larazzabal and jamieson |

By:
Chris Wood 42 and Rhys Davies at 260 - no idea whether they will ever fulfill the potential they've both showed in the past but Wood has had a fairish year and has pleyed well here before. Davies has shown slight signs of improvement (making 3 of last four cuts !!!) - and though perhaps priced up accordingly he's someone I used to back blind. Have also backed Carly Booth at Hoylake at 100 as she has strong local connections.

mannesero sounds ok @ 34's. capable of a decent first round/s. i think i'm on italians. this is my theory and observation this year.
THIS YEAR: if weisberger can win in austria, and grace can win in sth africa twice, and donald can win in england, and santos can win in portugal, and lawrie can win in scotland, and quesne can win in spain, then surely some italian can win in italy this year? |

By:
my three,
Sjoholm Canizares Quesne good luck all. |
|
By:
One slight flaw in your plan Pokeron - Quesne is French lol

As I got completely blinded by greed and stupidity not trading out of Storm last week. I am poor this week.
As a result I just hoovered up £20 of THE MAN WITH NO PICTURE.. Joon Kim... @250 - 300's Only proper bet was £50 on wattel - for some reason i keep putting £10 on Lagergren each week @700's. |

Ha yes MM, I was about to point that out, pedant that I am!

sorry yeah. but you get my point!

If Colsaerts could pick a course to play well at, it would be like this today.
Long hitter, rough less than penal and soft green to attack flags from well up the hole. I note he said on twitter that his long game and putting were particularly sharp in the pro am. |
|
By:
Any coverage on Sky please? Can't find it anywhere.
|
|
By:
on at 3-30 ss2
|
|
By:
Colsaerts, lol.
the Yanks will be fighting each other to play him. |
|
By:
imagine how demoralising it would be for colsaerts if he found out it was totally true and americans are actually arguing about who plays him. he'll be reaching for that cigarette...
that or he'll shot 9 under and win 10 and 8 in his first singles match! |
|
By:
To be fair to Colsaerts, the guy's played far too much golf in the last three months. Needs a few weeks off to refresh the old batteries.
|
|
By:
take my moneys man flying today, is he on ?
|
|
By:
I see Colsaerts said he had stomach cramps yesterday
|
|
By:
euphemism for menstrual cramps....
|
|
By:
Both my pre tourny bets are gonna miss the cut so I'll add Jacquelin at 65 and hope he picks up a few more shots before his round finishes.
|
|
By:
Olesen hole in 1 at #2, wow
|
|
By:
Scoreboard playing tricks again?? Sorry
|
|
By:
Quiet in here, who wins from here I got a few sweats on tomorrow from my bets listed above. Colseats shoots -8 and wins ;)
|
|
By:
good luck to mm......for the first time in months i didn't back yours......could be a massive gggggrrrrrr
|
|
By:
im on larazzabal 10er at 35's. Heres hoping. Reckon a 6 under may do it. Cabara bello the danger from here imo
|
|
By:
Cheers TJ hoping he can keep it going!
|
|
By:
Cabrera Bello for £350 if he wins but can take £60 now, any ideas, I think I know but you know how we think
|
|
By:
Robert Rock -8 thru 12 today...could be lively trading later with birdies a plenty
|
|
By:
Surely at least one of the top 4 will go really low to put it out of reach of those starting - 13 downwards. One final go on Larrazabal for me here.
|
|
By:
Seems that a Gary Boyd albatross at the 8th has shot him up the leaderboard for now...back nine a few shots tougher than front so pressure on leaders to start well
|
|
By:
A birdie fest and then Bello starts with a db and Bland goes 3 better on the third.
