    He's been on form so far this season what would you say his chances are for Sunday? Can he take out Mickelson?

    Just noticed he's 9's on Betfair, has to be worth a fiver at least

    Edit: LOL at thread title typo

    Worth a punt but if mickleson keeps it up theres no stopping him. Throw a tenner on Harrington ;-)

    44/1! Not bad odds, hasn't a hope of winning IMO though.

    Villegas also seems good value at 27/2, I'll see how he goes in the afternoon before I place any more bets.

    .


    Without trying to be smart, how is that a good price if he hasn't a hope of winning?

    McIlroy is cerainly worth a punt at this stage. He's been imprssive all year and he is generally very good in the third round, Mickelson has been hot but I've never seen him have four days in a row with the putter that hot. I think you should expect McIlroy to close the gap today and theres a good chance of being able to lay him at some stage this evening or tomorrow before play begins on the final day.

    Harrington is playing awful stuff and is very lucky to be up there.

    Its Phil's to lose

    Because he's only six strokes behind with 36 holes to go at 44/1. I just don't think he's in good enough form to pull it off.
