You will probably get 1.000 for a place....

I agree Eddie and you would have probably got the same odds for a unknown John Daly to place at Winged Foot Mischief

Price was first to pull out but not sure who the others were that let the 9th alternate in

Personally I loved when he won the open in poor conditions and pitched up in a windcheater that looked like it had been slept in

I may be right (refuse to google) but did he not drive overnight on the off chance being 3rd alternate ie third reserve ?
Report MadVlad • August 2, 2013 9:01 PM BST
And now I find out he was 9th alternate ffs I'm gonna google in future Cry

Think Nick was the 9th to pull out,he did use his caddie for sure.

You disappoint me RobGrin
Report happyhibee • August 2, 2013 9:13 PM BST
I thought Nick was first cos his wife was pregnant? I know Squeak was on Daly's bag as well though mate thats spot on

The month before the PGA, Daly had finished 15th, 11th and 3rd in PGA Tour events.  He also had a 4th at the Honda earlier that season so it's not like he was a complete nobody.  If Betfair was around in those days I don't think he would have been a 1000 chance to win, and certainly not to place!
