Kennemer Golf Course - 6626 yards - teensy pitch + putt to these guys
Course designer - HS Colt
style - seaside course, pretty much a links course
Short course, wind is key as it's quite exposed
quite undualating but no water hazards.
Seems from reading every man and his dog tell me Accuracy accuracy accuracy - BUT I DONT SEE IT!!
In fact stats are useless for this imo - heres a stat i just put together to show what i mean...
Since 2006 this course has been used 5 times - Heres how many of the top 10 placed ranked in the top 10 of tourney stats.
accuracy - 7 out of 50
drive distance - 2 out of 50!!
greens hit - 13 out of 50
PPG - 11 out of 50
PPR - 9 out of 50
To me this is gunna be won by one of two types...
1) course form - same names near the top pop up time after time
2) Wind players - The 1st day especially looks very windy and the guys who play it well will do well..
I have a few in mind, just going to wait a day see what the markets do - I have a cunning plan lol :)
One person i have backed already is Marc Warren - wind wizard and stan james made the mistake of opening @ 40/1 - isn't there now!!
Good Luck if u have a go at this one.

Don't usually play Euro, but I like this selection, am joining you, win and top 10. Koepka too, matter of time surely, and he's also showed a liking for the links.
Where has this idea KOEPEKA likes links courses come from???

Annoyed!! I'm meant to be done, but it is folly to miss out an in form Scotsman on a short links course so had to add Richie Ramsey @ 40
I'd worked it out as well 
I like having a big team but was getting silly - This week i decided to just back to a level stake 15 runners - but a mixed bag of runners, i.e. This week i have - 3 below 50 - 7 upto 250 - then 5 biggie's up to a 1000, backed them to win £1000 each after stakes - cost £220.
Then sit back, watch some golf and maybe have a short priced trade if any went low....DONE...!
16 Minutes later!! i'm adding a player bringing total to £250 lol

I dont do the short priced stuff and wont be doing this bet but closing in on 2/1 joost Luiten for top ten has got to be a bet imo, defending, at home, 4th last week, he's going to be around!
think win markets too skinny on him, hence aint a pick but that looks value imo.

Well shaky start for me! 8 started, 4 over par, noone under par - very early obv
disappointing, unless it's going to be on the red button, sky are showing none of this live :(
ha ha it is on interactive :) - lol to be fair it is an official Major as far as the ladies golf go
Bloody hell ,play suspended while Zanotti gets medical treatment.
horsey lungberg and aquilar in the group behind, one of em in trouble!!
Cheers.Probably wait until 11-10 when play is due to resume.
wow - pic etc on this link - looks proper serious!!

hope he's ok - extended the delay untill 1pm now, hoping that isn't a bad sign
best to him!
best to him!
Never heard of a pro golfer being injured and sent to hospital mid round. Doesn't sound good. Did it hit him on the temple?
no idea.
on a lighter note - Rhino, u are Australian yeah? found out yesterday a lot of u have seats attached to your golf trolleys?? is this true?? and if yes why the feck haven't i heard about it before, never ever seen such a thing in the uk!!

sky just said he's ok but recieving medical treatment, which sounds better :)
looks like the scorings tough but -4 and -3 proves theres birdies out there.

I am Aussie vegas and yes some buggies have seats. Not really common anymore, they were pretty widespread when I was a little tacker in the 80s, pretty much everyone had them then. Not sure why they're not in the UK, never really thought about it.
it is strange - we are renown for our laziness!! 
Have you seen what the prize is for a hole in one on the 15th???
A TRIP TO SPACE!!! they have replica shuttle n that on the course

I mean really, wtf is going on?
Zanotti in the ambulance, on his way to hospital ages ago. Yet still we restart at 12 uk time?
He must have lost a lot of blood and they are busy cleaning the playing surface.

Aguilar and Gonzalez also withdrawn according to the sandtrap poster
Who ever is asking 120 about Aguilar may want to cancel
looking at the course map and where the 16th is, cant see how it was a different hole, and wuth aquilar going with him i feel he may be responsible, must shake him up as well this sort of thing.
Suspect Manassero may have called it a day, too. No updates.
Purple site D a q, Lads, and Sky have refunded all losing bets Zanotti.
Hmmm - i'm having a mare with my golfers, far far too many + signs
it will proper punish u this course - otto was two under thru 5 now 7 over thru 12
vegas
seats were sold for trollies in the 80s over here
but anyone worth his salt had a shooting stick on one side of bag and umbrella on the other

what it is - in true lazy man style i bought an electric trolley off ebay last night - now it was well underpriced, but even so what sealed the deal was it has a little seat attached to the side!!! even lifts up to store stuff inside.
as i say never seen such a thing but..........GENIUS I TELL YOU GENIUS!!1

good news zanotti going to be let out of hospital soon - Alexandre Kaleka was the culprit who hit the shot
BAH!! you bet a golfer at 1000 - suspend play with him having 2 holes left to play - he's -5 joint leader - comes out this morning to finish up - bogey bogey 
Anyway not overjoyed by my first day but have plenty well in the hunt so could be worse.

Luiten just hits one sailing over Lipsky's head.Expect another delay when Lipsky clouts him.
Luiten needs a timeform squiggle next to his name.Can't chip,won't chip.
what do you call a five over on a hole then, we have triple, quadruple, but what is a five over
had Waring top English, I see he took a 9 on a par 4, Jack The Hack.

As collapses go I must say Sullivan's has been impressive.
Dont know like larazabel's red mist showimg yesterday would compete - 2nd rnd course record 62 - 3rd rnd 75 - on course for 64 in last lol
yeah very testing - the course is overall very nice, for a course to be 6600 yards long but only 54 out of 150 pro's get under par, it has to be a cleverly designed course!
team casey making a late run at ryder cup selection
Casey having a rant at some 70 year old course marker class act NOT toss pot moaning coz he did not get another free drop boooo hooooo
I think we are seeing why wattle is struggling to get wins just now,doesnt seem to find being in contention easy, no doubt this will come in time clearly talented.
Wattel fooking awful today,like a rabbit in the headlights,seemed to play to defensive for me.one or two may fall in his lap but he is one to be very cautious of
Wattel - Clearly has to be placed in the brown trouser on Sunday category.
Everything about his game today has been negative.
Once bitten twice shy......

Casey about to bottle it on the 16th miles right of the tee then miles left with the 2nd but got a lucky of luckiest bounces to the centre of the green out of thick rough very lucky
Any fresh stream? The one listed above has switched to soccer
Seems a nice guy that Richie Ramsay, he's always the first to congratulate the winner!
Well got the winner keep the good run of form going :) my picks generally were poor to be fair, but casey was a main bet/choice so have too see it as possitive overall.
Had a bit of ramsey top ten, and joost who i did not back but i suppose advised was a great price for top ten came good as well.
c u next week lol.
