Course measures 7334 yards with water on 12 of them though many are only dangerous if the wind blows.The 18th is the 2nd hardest on the PGA tour.
Previous winners in the last few years include  Rose, Watney, Mickleson,Ogilivy,ELs and Woods.Of them Ogilivy and Rose played well last week.
On current form Woods and Mcilroy are playing poor,.Playing well lately include Kuchar,Schwartzel and maybe Freddie Jacobson.
Going to take a chance on Dustin Johnson myself,in truth not shining in his last few outings but has a runner up spot here in 2011 and at 47,s appeals on this course.
Porto Rican open isn,t televised and likely to have poor liquidity.might have a look on Saturday.
GL with your picks.

Have backed Tiger e.w at 12s, and Garrigus e.w at 50s so far. Trying to back Tiger at his favourite venues only this year, but as usual had small interests on him elsewhere too. It isn't Bay Hill, Augusta, or Torrey Pines, but his track record here is pretty impressive, so will up the stake this week. 12s in a limited field, on a course he has won 3 times, seems to good to refuse.
Garrigus is continuing in fine form, generally bettering his previous best in every tournament. Can be excused his defeat against Kuchar on two grounds, one the eventual winner beat him, and second he sprained his wrist on his opening drive.
Will add Kuchar, whose play around the greens in Dove Mountain was top notch, and course form none too shoddy, with last years 8th being his worst showing. Doesn't win too often, but 5-1 for top 5 is a value bet for a man who seems sure to thereabouts come Sunday.
And also one of Keegan Bradley or Adam Scott. Bradley, who also tied 8th last year, looks ready to run into a bit of form. If he can get that putter hot again, he wont be far away. Toss up with him and Scott for last bet, Scott fading to finish 13th last year, but has been in consistent form for the last few months, and his driving should be an asset around here.

Puerto Rico is pure sh*te, but it offers an opportunity i have been waiting for for awhile, in backing Casey Witenberg in a low grade event. The fact he is 140 is a massive bonus. If this event was held 5 weeks ago, he would be about 30. He admittedly hasn't been in the same form in last 6 weeks or so, but had quite a run before that, looking quite comfortable in the company of Tiger. He looks like a player that will be able to get the job done, more than can be said for most of the muck in this, and should relish playing in this lower grade for a change. I think he is a cracking bet, either on here at 140, or e.w at 125s in shops.

ROse is the man for me this week although not exactly bowled over by the price. But as defending champion & after an eye-catching finish at the honda last week, suppose it is about all you could expect.

Also a little bit on Bill Haas, 3 top 10s this year and has played well at this event in the past

Having had a quick look at this,I thought Bubba Watson was in with a good chance here. He's started the season fairly well and was second in this tournament last year.
Also backed Stricker and Day as back up who have also started the season in good form.
Good luck with your bets.

Poor starts for Rory and Pod so far. Rory's eagle is saving some respectability for his scorecard, whilst Pod's been in the water twice already. Plain

Some positive late signs from Rory, hopefully he can carry it into tomorrow.

Good start for Tiger and Bradley. Sh*te from Garrigus, and not much better from KuchSad. So have added Luke at 50(backed Van Pelt in error, so have put in to get out of the bet....probably come back to haunt me!!), and Louis Oost at 85. Both made fine comebacks from poor starts yesterday.
Backed Zach Johnson in 3 ball today , at 2.88.

Looking good for Tiger here with a 4 shot lead and while the wind is supposed to be getting up a little(15-17mph) it will be a major surprise if he loses this.
In the w/o market Phil makes a bit of appeal at 10/3,1 behind Gmac and level with Stricker there is a further 2 shots back to 4 others,really shouldn,t involve more than 9 players and much more likely 7.
Having done Dustin Johnson at the start in outright,top 5 and 10,he has cheesed me off by missing a lot of short putts and not scoring on the par 5,s. More or less after giving up on the top5 but at 6/5ish the top 10 looks a reasonable bet.Currently in a tie for 11th,even dismissing the top 4 players hard to see the -6,s involved which leaves 15 players and 6 of them are behind Dustin.

Really need Jason Day to go very low today for the top australian long shot but stil hoping for the trixie bet,Looking good with my outright bet on my sporting hero tiger.

Job done Tiger, fuc*in Legend. Can't wait for Augusta. Disappointed in not collecting e.w on Bradley, more so that i plumped for him instead of Scott as the final selection. Good to see Rory have a good round. Form is temporary...... Also good to see that David Livingstone pr*ck was squirming after it...."Tigers luck also seems to be back". Saying he getting away with all sorts, **** off. Must have missed the ball in the tree last night David!! His putting was immense. G Mac played superb, if putting as well as Tiger, he would have really stretched the great man.
WD Huddys, hope ya can multiply it at CheltWink

WD Lads, never been a big tiger fan, but 12's a great price given his record in the event.

No golf betting for me this week, but might have a few quid on Jason Dufner at Tampa. Off to Cheltenham, hopefuly Jezki can get us off to a flyer (Un atout been well talked up though)
Boston Angel in the xcountry, and if were totally fecked, Quevega for the pull out, as usual.

Im all in Sir Des Champs on FridayScared

Good luck with all your bets lads
