Very rarely back Rickie, kind of expecting we see the long overdue correction in his pricing this year if the winless streak goes on. That being said, I'm on this week. Very backable at what is his favourite course. Done Xander as well, think he should be up there with the three market leaders.
Rahm a friendless fave atm, been drifting for two days and still not done yet probably. |

does fowler look like winning? he's hardly knocking on the door. having said that the attractive price and his course form has tempted me in as well.
have also gone with rahm and Thomas, so favourite heavy. hideki a standing dish at this track but seems to have been priced up accordingly, 50-1 last week and now 12-1, so hardly screams value. have also added Rodgers as although he has let me down too often in the past, this is a ball-strikers track and it was only about three starts ago that he went very close, losing by a shot to Charles Howell III. |

This Joel Dahmen fella had some top results second half of last season. Hasn't missed a cut in 8 starts this season and last 4 starts has got progressively better through to the 9th place finish last week.
Long story short, 240 is nice. |
|
By:
this is the best I've seen Thomas play for a while. he looks in really good shape.
|
|
By:
rick the slick looks good as well
|
|
By:
Flawless from JT.Looks in great nick.
Absolutely just coasted round here,not that easy a course. Ricky good too but a few loose one as usual. |
|
By:
Incredible how JT hits the ball when about 10 stone soaking wet,incredible.
|

grillo doing what grillo does. taking himself out of the equation early
 |
|
By:
rahmbo a short putt at the first.
would be great if it was a three-way go between these young guns, rahm, Thomas and fowler on the sunday. rarely you get several great players playing well at the same time.  |
|
By:
Rhino, I actually had a close look at him (as an in-form player - 9,22,37,41,69 last five starts - and was hoping that he was drawn with Sung Kang
 ) but instead he has my pick Talor Gooch to contend with for two days - Gooch's was 3rd & 4th in his last two events KEEP IT UP ! |
|
By:
do we trust rick today or not?
 he tends to have a habit of following up a great round with a terrible one, these days. lets hope he bucks that trend. |
|
By:
A typical Rickie tournament from here would be a poor one today, a great one tomorrow then fun and games on Sunday. One thing with Rick is he tends to pull his drives under pressure, and that's where the trouble is on 11, 13, 15, 17 and 18. So if he gets to the back 9 on Sunday with a lead it could be fun to watch.
|
|
By:
Really aren't many better back 9s in tournament golf than Scottsdale, so much potential for big charges or disaster. Love that they park the knuckleheads on the only mediocre hole so the real golf fans can enjoy the good holes in peace.
|
|
By:
Could turn into the Rickie and JT show pretty quick this, morning wave hasn't done enough.
|
|
By:
yeah they will drag each other along as well. rick will see JT making birdies ahead and will want to keep pace
|
|
By:
Miller getting emotional already. Will see a tear or two on Sunday.
|
|
By:
fowler after looking good the first few holes, has reverted to his intial flakiness.
think if Thomas doesn't go too deep, then this is wide open going into the weekend. fancy rahm to shoot a low one tomorrow. |
|
By:
Webb simpson's awkwardness then proves the knee height drop is ridiculous.
|
|
By:
The Wolff kid has quite a swing, seems to work though.
|
|
By:
Comms have said a few times various coaches have wanted to change it but his main guy always stopped them. Furyk did fine with a dodgy swing so yeah if it works, keep it. He must be having a ball playing this well in front of so many people.
|
|
By:
Hitting it a mile with his dodgy swing. Game is changing.
|
|
By:
Bad bogey from middle of fairway JT.
Had an oppo to get clear. |
|
By:
Deary me Rickie. Should be -12 at least.
|
|
By:
Story of his career so far. Should've could've.
Just would never fully trust him. Good career so far though. Megabucks too. |
|
By:
you can almost tell when rick is going to miss. stiffens up over a putt and looks too nervous.
|
|
By:
Indeed Jedi. He is the hipster Matt Kuchar.
Would like as an Aussie to see Cam Smith get a trophy soon, has the talent to join the top tier of players just needs that extra bit that a good win can provide. Has been flashy in the past now developing consistency so he's getting better. |
|
By:
Think hes good but not sure if top class.
Hes had a few chances and kinda folded,faded a bit... |
|
By:
think fowler a lot better than kuchar, in fairness. apparently has a lot of course records up and down the country, so great in practice rounds. obviously top class in the proper stuff as well just has to learn to relax.
think when fowler finally gets it right will win a major by a lot of shots. just has to sort his head out. although you could also say the same about others, rahmbo for example |
|
By:
That's how to take the water out of play at 17 JT
|
|
By:
commentators always going on about players shouting fore, but even if they do spectators won't have time to react, if you even hear it.
|
|
By:
think champ might dominate in a few years. even now everything seems to revolve around him. and he's so long off the tee it's so easy for him to make birdies.
|
|
By:
great putt rick. he thrives in these situations, like the 17th at sawgrass.
|
|
By:
9 water balls in his career at 17 - you'd think he'd lay up.
|
|
By:
373 off the tee ffs.
|
|
By:
there's a danger if too many players like champ it might kill the game. smashing it nearly 400 yards off the tee and have wedges in every hole. if you lengthen these courses anymore the shorter hitters might as well retire.
|
|
By:
Fair play Rick. -6 after all those misses is an A+
|
|
By:
Great finish from Rickie. Easy to do that on a Friday, mind you. Plenty of strength in the chasing pack to keep the front two honest.
|
|
By:
think fowler should be shorter here. backed him already at 20-1 and 5-1 so in theory in a good situation but tempted to go in again.
I know Thomas has closed a lot more in the past but for me fowler is every bit as good as he is, just hasn't closed as much. rick played much the best golf of what I've seen so far. only problem is you don't just have Thomas to worry about, there's also dangerous lurkers like grace, kuchar and Cameron smith just behind. |

Catch Me ifyoucan 04 Feb 18 14:42 This will be the 6th 54-hole lead/co-lead of FOWLER's PGA Tour career - He's only won 1 - strong enough posse behind. When you combine this stat with the 1 out of 8 converting 54 hole leads with victory at the WMPO, Fowler is a MUST LAY @3.60........... Mmmmmmmm Little Rickie 3.55 after 36 holes this time............Fowler is a MUST LAY @3.55........... |
