think you've got your frys.com and portugal tips the wrong way around calli mate.
Haha, so I have Lewisham!
Who are you on yourself? Some start from Colsaerts.

I actually backed kaymer when he was 3 under for small stakes 
can't trust the german anymore.
tbh I prefer the pga tour anyway to the euro stuff which is normally very random and usually won by someone I've never heard of.
Don't trust the belgian bomber in the lead, lay him all day is my advice.
as for the frys as you know my friend I'm very keen on young justin thomas.

Yeah, I wouldn't be a fan of Colsaerts at all. But until it is clear that they are going to get 72 holes in, I wouldn't be keen to lay someone who could win it without knowing it.
Not being doing these previews recently, but kind of obliged to having picked Blixt, Walker and Bae in the past 3 renewals.
The run will no doubt end now!

Was close to backing Todd myself DV. Just prefer him on a slightly tougher track.
At least Kingrat varies his idiocy I suppose. Two weeks ago, he slated the Olesen bet before he won. Last week he slated the Fitzpatrick selection....after he won
......yesterday he reverted to slagging before the bets returned the dividend. Strange boy/rat/thing???
Marc Warren is well worth supporting in todays 3 ball at 15-8. Hard to see Colsaerts back up yesterdays low one. Lawrie looked out of sorts.

Brandt Snedeker takes on Rory McIlroy and Justin Rose in todays marquee 3 ball stateside, and though he is quite rightly outsider of 3, it is an insult of a player of his calibre to be 11-2 for any 3 ball. Anywhere. Has to backed on the basis that the price is just fundamentally wrong.

Fair chance the Portuguese tournament is over after today, the have rightly being on about the weather for the weekend and it does look bad. 54 holes at the very most and possible 36.
Justin Thomas going fairly well,chance in the latter stages to see has he the mettle.

Yeah, it could be done and dusted alright.
Thomas shot 6 under yesterday, and apart from an 11ft putt on the first he holed absolutely nothing. If he had of had a hot flat stick he could have banged in a 59.
He certainly has a bottle question to answer. At the moment. When he wins one, he will win plenty.

Warren handy enough in the end,Colsearts triple done him, good shout Callit.
Colsaerts an infuriating sort. Not as thick as DJ, but just doesn't seem to give a bo**ox. Certainly isn't getting the best from his talent. 9 first rounds leads now, and hasnt won off any of them. Poor return.
Chris Kirk had an up and down round yesterday, but finished it on a high, and the lie in this morning may help shed any remaining jet lag. He rates just as good a bet today as he was yesterday. If not a shade better.
3pts Chris Kirk 11-8

Ok who wins it, 9 to go (16 & 18 par 5's) ?
Some putt for J T there,Grillo poxed earlier with chip in as it was going miles past.Nice to see Rose bogey.
Last 3 holes could make big swings yet.

Holy F.....Tyrone Van Aswegen clubhse leader !
Someone will fluke -15, some golf, running out of ligatures for the choking.
ROSE F at -12 with 3 bogeys in the last 7...not good
BOHN puts it into 10ft and gets the putt for eagle 
Yeah on Callits shout Justin Thomas,missed a short one on 14 and only par in,the squiggle was fairly justified. Nice green on Tyrone Van as well just on the win but that didn't cost. Bohn blew it there with a shocking finish for ya.
BOHN gone into the hospitality tent early ffs

Yeah disappointing final 5 holes from Thomas.
Standing on the 14th green, he had a 7ft birdie putt and two par 5s left to improve his score, but failed to do so. His first win will probably come from shooting a low final round and posting a score from a couple of groups ahead of the leaders. Last night presented that opportunity, but I get the feeling he will get there soon enough.

DV,
Great read, even after the event...what might have been eh. http://bit.ly/1LPTPct
"...Fedex Cup points up for grabs, a place in the Hyundai Tournament of Champions available to the winner and a spot in The Masters also going to the winner
...the graduates from the Web.com Tour
...a debut Tour winner
...seeking a first win or trying to bounce back after a quiet spell
...Riviera was mentioned as a similar type of layout
...important connection with poa annua greens at other venues and in addition the Byron Nelson classic"
HOW DID THE FINAL LEADERBOARD FARE WITH YOUR POINTERS ABOVE ? tia.

I think you're being way too harsh on him. He's only 23, and he lipped out with his final putt to force a play-off. Clearly at the moment he's not speith, at least in terms of mental strength, but when he hits full stride I have a feeling he'll emerge as the best of the rest and challenge for the number one spot.
It's little baby steps and the fact that he came so close here and has had those experiences will toughen up. I don't agree that he'll have to post a score to get over the line in his first win.

Wouldn't say I being harsh at all.
I do think he is a serious talent, and have said I don't think he will be long in waiting for his win. The final group/pairing can be a cauldron for a maiden/infrequent winner, and though I think his temperament(at the moment) is more conducive to a win from slightly off the pace, I didn't say it would 'have' to be this way.
I wouldn't pay much attention to his putt on the last. It was a 30footer, that he knew he needed to hole. Its not a putt that would give any weight either way to the 'bottle' issue. The putt on 14, where he expects to make it, would carry much more weight. And he hit it very poorly. Which has been his big weakness so far when in contention. He looks too good not to win soon, and when he does he will probably be quite prolific.
Harsh to say his last 5 holes were disappointing??
Certainly not. From his position on the 14th green, about 1.4 under par would have been his expectancy. To shoot par then, is a disappointment. He missed a very makeable putt, hit a very poor second to 17, and crucially missed both drives on the par 5s. These were all pressure shots. He flunked them all. The monster putt he holed on 13, was a bonus, but wasn't one he was expecting to make, and he wasn't really in close contention before it. In his defence he did hole a clutch par putt on 17, but he should have been having a putt of that range for birdie.
I do agree that the more a player experiences the Sunday factor, the more comfortable they get. Matt Fitz being a prime example. But on the flip side of that coin, the more times you forego winning opportunities, the harder it is to win one. Shooting 64 on a Sunday from a couple off the lead, may be the way this boy sheds his maiden tag.
None of the above is really putting him down, I backed him after all, and he is certainly on my radar going forward. But they are the facts of what happened yesterday, and it was a disappointing finishing effort. Lets hope he does gain from the experience.

he's 22 for gods sakes. give the guy a break.
Yes I backed him also and he was by far my biggest winner, and was slightly disappointed by the fact that he didn't make a birdie in the last three holes. his odds going into those last three holes reflected that he was expected to post at least 15 under, he didn't. Then again the market always slightly overestimates potential score against actual score for me. At that point the market seemed to think at least 3-4 players would get to 15 under and one player might do better than that, but they didn't.
Also you seem to be ignoring the fact that several of those who were in contention did far worse on the closing holes. they weren't that easy. Look at Bohn's meltdown, and he doesn't have inexperience as an excuse.
the final par five you really had to make the fairway to have a realistic chance of a birdie, but it wasn't easy to do so. on the positive side he very nearly holed a long birdie putt and made a good save at the 17th for par, which wouldn't have been easy under pressure.
he'll win soon, no doubt about it.
and is clerkmore another one of your accounts?

No, though I do agree with his 3.03 post!!
I don't care what Bohn or the others, did or didn't do. The subject was Thomas. Taking the hole averages, his chances of holing a 7 footer on 14, his superiority over the vast majority of the field on the given day,.... his expectancy would have been about 1.4 under par. I wasn't looking at the betting, as it invariably ruins viewing.
Its nothing to get too dogmatic about, I was merely saying I wasn't harsh in my initial comments about his finishing effort last night. I would 100% stand by it, as its correct, but I too would be in no way surprised if he pops up very soon. He will be in the top dozen in the betting for all the upcoming low grade end of year events he chooses to play.

I think you are my lucky charm KR.
The past 3 weeks when you have appeared with your pictures, have all produced nice profits.
The 11-1 on Ricky Fowler for the Shriners this week looks at least 3 points too big, and well worth taking.
Rat, if you could lob up a premature picture suggesting a loser, that would be great.
Please and Thanks.
Hard luck with Litigant on Saturday....another of your well handled investments. Maybe next time. Maybe.
