Willett won it , 67 in the last round was joint best score of the day . Spieth had it won until ten , eleven and twelve where he went bogey , bogey , quadruple bogey , going from 7 under to 1 under . Akin to meltdown , might take a while to get over it .
Spieth is the best putter in the world , but he is not the complete golfer . His game is substantially dependent on his putting . His putting held up OK , it was the other shots which let him down . Have seldom seen a tournament where so many players did not seem to have the ba**s to go and win it , Willett did , fair play to him . He is a good player , has been playing well for a while now and will be an asset in the Ryder Cup . The fact that Lee John was well up there , bearing in mind he is not the best putter , casts a cloud over the value of the tournament as a form guide .They were giving away twos on the 16th , 3 holes in one after 4 barren years , Rory 3 putted from 7 feet . Rory played like a car sputtering on 3 cylinders , occasionally the fourth cylinder kicked in ( 7 birdies today , alongside a load of rubbish ) . He lost the tournament on Saturday , a decent round then would have put a different complexion on his play over the weekend . Spieth looked pretty shaken in the Butler cabin , an outdated routine in my book , quaint though it may be . Was OK when the amateur ethos was prevalent , but most of the golfers involved nowadays are multi millionaires . | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

What price did Spieth hit i/r lads ,was going to lay him 2,24 on Sat but sadly never did...
| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

By:
Guys on golf forum say he hit 1.1
| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
By:
Yeah , Spieth hit around that 1.1 , presumably when he stood on 10th tee . Lowest price I laid him at was 1.17 at 10.02 . On the 10th tee he looked home and hosed , only tricky hole to come was the 11th ( ask Rory re how not to play that ) , and with 2 straightforward ( relatively speaking ) par 5's at 13 and 15 to come I was getting worried about his ability to shoot 64 ( which I had laid on the lowest score market -- he was the only one in the running for a really low score ) .
10 , 11 , and famously 12 will be forever etched on Spieths memory , it wont go away , but maybe he will have learnt a very hard lesson from it . | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

There was about £350k matched on Spieth at 1.1 and a few grand at 1.09.

Two things I could have predicted, there was about 100 players mentioned and not one of them was the winner. All of them ew and hardly any even placed.
Unsurprisingly Kelly who put up 4 golfers to trade, and his main bet Bubba Watson, all of which never came within an arses roar of the top of the leaderboard, well he still managed to win by laying Spieth at 1.17 even though he as he says himself, thought he was home and hosed. Kelly really is peerless when it comes to winning, he is the best I've ever seen. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

By:
Mincer , my 4 I put up to trade were Gmac , Kaymer , Bradley , Duboisson .
Gmac traded down to 250 , Kaymer to 90 , Bradley to 75 , Duboisson to 110 . Cant remember the exact prices I took initially , except Duboisson at 610 , but they were all above 400 on here . Even you Mincer should have been able to turn my advice into profit on the basis of those figures ( unless you were greedy and/or stupid ) . I backed Bubba at 14/1 , laid him back lower , win and place on here . Nowhere did I say I managed to win by laying Spieth at 1.17 , those are your words , I seldom lay individual bets , I trade , and laying Spieth at 1.17 would only have fitted in with other lays , anything which beats the 100% mark is profit , trick is to be able to do it . Bubba played like Bubba does , if things go his way he is very good , if things dont go his way he loses interest . Most golfers on here know that . The main way to beat the markets on big golf events is in the place markets , Matsuyama was 10/1 a place 1-6 with the bookies , yet could be layed on here at 6/1 pre tournament , and there were others as well as him . 100 players mentioned according to you . Funny there were only 89 runners , and 20 of them were only there for the beer ( and barbecue) . Dont let the facts stand in the way of a good story ( fantasy more like ) . | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I've never " greened up " or traded out in my life.
Others like Kelly are doing this for ages,I believe him I'd say his motto is small and often. Its like the few that come on here saying the only thing that counts is the figure in the right hand corner,not to me it isint. Gambling is something you should enjoy,when that stops so should you. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

By:
My motto has become small and often , wildman , thanks to Betfair it is possible . One British Open many moons ago I made profit on 48 of the players I backed / traded , hard work , but enjoyable if you like the sport and the activity . I reckon I could make money on the soccer , but it bores me completely ( Barca and Bayern aside at present) , so I seldom bother with it. But the Majors stretch betting wise over 4 to 6 months for those of us with the interest ( and the bank sometimes) to trade .

Go away and lie down Kelly please, you clearly state early in this thread that Bubba was your main fancy.
Rememberring lies isn't easy particularly when the years creep up. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Rory is becoming something of an enigma. I will never ever understand how a player of his ability could go round Augusta last saturday and not get one birdie.
His game ,as kelly says,was only three quarters there but even still he was still in it until the 43rd hole. There was a turning point there when Spieth was looking at certain bogey from 35ft and Rory is putting for birdie from half that distance. Rory three putted with a feeble miss from4 ft. and the chance was lost to put some pressure on. Spieth bounds off the green , Rory slouches. Then ,in the last chance saloon on Sunday after a bonus birdie (at the same 7th !) Rory smashes two great shots on to the 8th and has only a feasible 8ft or so for eagle. If he sinks that he also gets that shot of adrenalin that can put him on a charge. Chance missed and he just trundles on as an also ran -still getting 4 more birdies! Rory seems to alternate between flair and flicker -when he's in flair mood he can blow any field away ...when he's in flicker mode it can be hardtop watch. But whatever about his mental dynamic -he really must improve his mid-range putting -say from6 to 10ft.Too many soft shots leaking away there. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Rory hasn't got the mental strenth yet, to busy trying to crowd please .Thanks for the info lads...

jordan and rory still proved they are still the best choices around when it comes to betting on the majors, with rory struggling to win at the masters yet again, only one he hasnt won yet. shame about jordan having a melt down, that proved to be a blessing in disguise if you had the
wherewithal to back him in the first place and lay off at 1.10. seems these two golfers are never high up the pecking order or fashionable when it comes to selections on these threads  | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I didn't see anywhere that anyone at all included Willett in their list of fancies -in that sense he was a surprise ( though deserving) winner.
A staggering stat is that Willett was only level par for the par 5s!(Spieth 11 under) Fitzpatrick had a steady tournament with 11 bogeys and 11 birdies. He could be a big factor in majors before too long . He's only 21 and interestingly,like Willett ,from Sheffield. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I've been bitten before regarding weather but the way i,m looking at tomorrows makes for interesting reading,every weather site seems different but from what i gather the early/lates may well have a considerable advantage(ie 13 mph gusts morning against 30mph afternoon).
Best check it yourselves,possible your pick could well be scuppered before tee off,a rotten way to go. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
