The golf threads have been quiet the last month or so,just done one bet this week lee westwood 18/1 e/w with boyles,One of the main reason i backed him is there are 5 par 5 under 600 yards,he must be one of the best drivers at the moment so if his putting can hold up thing he has a great e/w chance,think it starts around 12 tonight so if your doing a pre tournament keep this in mind,anybody else had a bet this week?

Good man huddys,a golf thread,know its a WGC but the timing of it through the night makes you want to be nearly guaranteed a win to follow properly.
Did two small bets on Quiros and Aiken at around the 300 mark,i,ll be dreaming when they are playing alright. Good luck with LW,respectable finish last week,if not this week the Nedbank at the end of nov is the course for him as the last couple of years has shown. |

Oh ye your right about the Nedbank il be having a big bet on him in that.

By:
Me too,the two recent winners are doing well,Peter Hanson and Shane Lowry. As you said par 5,s all important here.

Ye they are flying aiken going ok for you at-3,Westwood would want a low round tomorrow but -2 not the worst.

By:
2 clear for Shane,he,ll be in the big time if he wins this,all the "bombers" up there as well.

Backed ww pre tournament myself, topped up there now at 46. Cracking price. Have a feeling he very close to producing his best, and with his play around the greens improving, a low round is imminent.

Shane Lowry is as natural golfer as you are ever likely to see also has a great temperament but feel he should be fitter.He is a young man and without wanting to be rude he is overweight extraordinary considering he is a sportstar,would say a fondness of porter is the cause.
The days of unfit but skilful golfers is long gone so hope he does something because he has all the qualities to become one of the best in the world. |

Agree fully with wfmb -Lowry a grand character with oodles of talent....but he doesn't need to be toting an extra four or five stone around the course -usually in great heat.
He may be able to function ok now in his 20s -but it will surely affect him more in his 30s...and many of a golfer's prime years are from around 25-40. Fitness coach needs to assert himself during the close season now that Shane is on the brink of the privileged top 50 in the rankings. |

Seems to be taking his game to a new level,no problems mixing it with some of the worlds best this week. Probably would be better losing a few pound alright and i,ve no doubt sometime in the not too distant future we will be looking at a slimline Shane on the telly.Suppose a counter argument if he is happy and enjoying life it can be a positive mentally. He seems a down to earth,next door type fella anyway whose parents obviously made sacrifices to give him a chance.
Tommy "two gloves" Gainey was another rags to riches story a couple of weeks ago in America,former building site worker beat the "blue bloods" of Toms,Furyk and Love to record his first win on the pga circuit. Didn,t see any golf laat night but Oosthuizen has a nice lead,even with 2 rounds to go,still have a fair chance with a place there Huddys. |
