Safeway Open

I believe this is the first time i have ever said this and prob the last but top of market looks about right

si woo kim - 2 poor efforts here. but a different golfer now and an impressive one at that!

Steele - played this 6 times won it twice, add that to the fact i think he's played his best golf ever this year, his iron play immense, easily see the treble coming.

mickleson - A win on the old man tour, weaker feild than normal and 2 top tens out of 4 attempts here means be folly to ignore him.

I will no doubt find myself a few at outrageous prices but if them 3 finished 1,2,3 in this i wouldn't be shocked tbh...

b0ll0cks - just noticed Grillo @ 42 who has caught my eye over the last month or so and has won here, bah can't back em all, who to dump,who to dump, hmmmmm

RIGHT...

steele and grillo are mine for this, will minimize my liability on the other 2 and add a couple @ 300+ later and thats my lot for this....

Good luck and Enjoy

There is value here. Several players stand out at very generous odds.

I'm going with Steele, Varner and Dahman.

Hopefully at least one of them will be in the mix on Sunday evening.

Some crazy pictures from the course today... whole of Northern Cali is on fire. Virtually no daylight today with smoke blocking out the sun, you wonder if this can go ahead as scheduled.

Insane pictures TB. Horrible what is happening there. Looks like they're still panning to go ahead. Have backed Phil for an interest.

*planning

had a pop on power @ 180, think always overpriced and in 1st group could end up being an easy early trade

Really not sure they should be playing with all that smoke around, fine for the players at a push, but not great for all the marshalls and old lads doing the Shotlink who have to stand about in it for 12 hours.

I'm ready for 4 days of shocking putting from big Shane.
9ft & 12ft missed already

Apologies. 2 days of watching his sh1te putting.
13ft & 3ft missed next hole

You on Hubs TB?

Do you need to ask?

I've stuck with my guy, hope Rhino stuck with his.

Didn't have him pegged as a West Coast guy TB. Out think myself on occasions.

Saved yourself the inevitable heartache anyway.

I'm on Steele and still like him but 8.6 at this point seems very low?!?

I agree. I have already laid off my bets on both Steele and Varner to leave me with free bets on both. I just need Dahman to have a good start later to do the same with him.

EARLY SCORING NOT SEEMING SO BIRDIEFEST ISH, THEY CAN'T OF TOUGHENED THE COURSE MUCH OVERNIGHT COULD THEY? (sht capslck)

Pretty cold in the morning So the first few hours you often find the scoring a bit slow. Sam's responded very nicely to his early double.

aye birdies came thick and fast after I posted, cheers matey.

the woman in shot centre slot better in shot center, down to earth, I'm sure the guy knows his onions but he is simply incapable of dumbing it down for sky's audience lol, you can see him trying too...

Higgs!

Runaway leader came back in europe

Jordan Spiffy Spieth...

14 off leader,4 off the cut.

Let's be honest in a pretty woeful field.

Is there any way back for him?.

Had many a heated debate on him on here when in his pomp and what I thought then has manifest itself, very poor off tee, very very good for a period on greens, very very fortunate on several occasions including an Open.

No more Majors for me, cant see it, he would take any kind of win I'd imagine.

Pretty sad really as a great watch, even still he is for the car crash.

Shoukdve started a thread actually boys,sorry...

Said it before with Jordan, needs some proper time off to reset and rebuild, even if it takes a year. He seems like he hates golf - i watched the feature groups on Thursday and after three routine pars he looked like he was going to explode with rage. Can't be easy for him but needs to rediscover his love of the game. Tour could do him a favour too and stop putting him in featured groups every time he plays, give him some space to just play his game.

Theres nobody there TB.
NO ones watching him at all. Featured groups a gimmick.

It's all him. Bordering eccentric now on a golf course.

Great start Kim....

The usual 3 jab were now very accustomed to.

Yeah, I get that, but feels like he'd be better away from the cameras entirely.

Keeps going way he is he will be!

Thought would have tried the caddy change too, been proper friction there for a while.

Mike must have plenty to retire on.

Bones?

Steele backed in as if he was Koepka after rd 1, looking pretty ordinary right now

Burns needs to learn to aim away from pins.At right times.

Like when in lead.

Higgs outplaying him.

I thought the same thing about Bones replacing Greller, would make a lot of sense. Jordan needs a top caddie to get him back on track and Bones knows a thing or two about guys who spray it off the tee then rescue it with a magical short game.

Does Bones want to full time caddy again? His place in the game seems perfect for a guy who spent so long carrying a bag - sweet gig as on course commentator and still moonlights on occasion for guys he likes when a short term gig presents himself. Would he really give that up to caddy for the David Duval sequel which at this point we can proclaim Spieth as being.

I'd love to Spieth get back to where he was, pure box office at his peak. The way he won some of those tournaments will love a long time in the memory bank. Majors side, the hole out from the bunker at the Travelers, with the crowd reaction and then the club throw and chest pump... One of the great PGA tour moments of the last decade.

Hey Hank, check your pm.

Grillo still the boyo for this, slow start but steaming along yesterday, more of that to come today imo

plenty of birdies about, could be alot of leader changes thru this,bleeding late kick off this area like!
think I may see it out tho

thats a proper cop out that "wall" at the back of the 18th in this ladies MAJOR!!

If Redman can eagle the last might be worth sticking around.

yeah def, Grillo having a mare ffs

I have the mug EW

6 birdies last 6 holes, doc sets a target still maybe

Grillo hit a blinder 2nd shot on 3rd after bogey, if that putt would of dropped ...

-18 shouldn't stand a chance the way the course is playing and the number of players early in their rounds, but against these donkeys you just don't know.

thing is over the last year I believe there's been a noticeable increase, in noticeably nervous playing by all ranks of player

bit of a tongue twister is that sentence lol

I usually get punished when I lay players that have never had a sniff of a victory before, but can't be having Ace Ventura at this price

that's the kid they showed quite a lot of yesterday ? I do didn't look confident then.

looking at the leaderboard who can you really trust? certainly not Harry Crumb, I thought Hahn might make a run but he is +1. Wouldn't mind old geezer Cink winning

Higgs woulda been Good with a crowd when hitting that albatross 

chez has game?!?

JJ baby!!!

without betting I agree, like to see cink get it.

hey system you still do any footie bets or just golf now? I have had quite a few season bets, and have put WBA and Fulham in relegation trebles with West Ham, Palace and Burnley - what do you think?

not a big footie man mate.

All leaders playing pretty well really

np I thought you did for some reason. Ventura has given himself plenty of birdie looks - they can keep missing as far as I'm concerned. Can it really be 11 years since Cink won the open? doesn't seem possible

time ticks on, I had a shocking realization the other day , I believe I know more about the champions tour players than I do the PGA tour...

lol

Cink doing a really nice job, just hope the nerves don't set in on the last few, though it does help 2 of last 3 are par 5s

Scheffler out of the US Open, positive for Covid. Hope he didn't pick it up at East Lake, could be carnage if it was doing the rounds there!

oh man that's a shame, think he would have gone well, That's him and Koepka out then

Yeah, big shame for him, just hope he's the only one.

Had a very good run with Covid, first couple of weeks looked like it was going to be a major issue but have practically forgotten about it since then as a factor. Market currently 106.7% with Scottie still in it so some value on the board already even though it's early, especially when you factor in the true odds of some of those 1000 shots would be much higher than 1000.

With the possibility it was around at East Lake, plus guys jetting in from all over to play, certainly wouldn't bet against further positive WDs either.

big birdie for Cink

After his a-hole tweet yesterday Kisner getting a positive would be karma.

what did he say?

https://brobible.com/sports/article/kevin-kisner-rex-chapman-covid-tweet/

Here you go Hank.

Ole mate

ah, fk Kisner

I guess his media team had him do his apology.

Speaking of karma, Cink's regular caddie Henley is one of the worst guys on twitter, total bigot. About to miss out on a massive payday, gutted for him.

Name on the trophy.

I tell you what - impressed with his putting today - totally expected him to be nervily waving at some of the putts as it's been so long

Higgs That was pure gangster.

Can't believe it's 11 years since Turnberry, where do the years go? Last win anywhere too.

Just realized I am starting to type like my forum name

Dreadful approach there, nearly everyone's knocking it really close on 17.

ok well I guess the nervy putts have arrived

If there is 1 player who has the biggest disparity off the green and on it, then it has to be Grillo surely

Old man nerves there.

I am having a kind of reverse Cink/Watson feeling going on

has Harry let Cink off the hook?

Geez ole mate didn't fancy a weekend in contention did he. -15 Thurs/Fri, -2 Sat/Sun

Yeah, Sam's got plenty to learn but as the look of a guy who'll win this year.

Knock it in baldy...

yeah not great w/e rhino, but as TB says stick with him

NFL to watch.

cowgirls?

Bit gung ho Burne

Burns

Cowgirls always overbet,I've laid...

Donald a wrecking machine.

Hope the kid gets caddie for him at Augusta next year after helping him get in.

Dear me Rams....dear me.

Age no barrier.played great down stretch.
