I had a euro each way on him in paddy power at the start 125/1 €158 back on that, by far and away the biggest price winner i've ever had - Purely betting with my heart. and had a more substantial sum on him to finish in the top 20 at 11/2, which i thought was very good price given clarke loves links golf. Backed about six or seven players at the start (all 1 or 2 euro each way and picking relatively big prices) and rose was the only other one to make the cut.
Absolutely delighted for Clarke, I had thought McIllroy was a shoe-in for sports personality of the year, not so sure now!0 -

Delighted for Clarke, rounds up a great betting weekend for me, why can't they all be like this, just counting now and I've made almost 700 quid, all started with a €10 bet I made after I got refunded for Colsaerts withdrawing.

All my bets are down now
Bjorn @ 175/1 (PP €5 free bet) 4th
Stenson @ 66/1 (PP €5 free bet) 68th
Coetzee - Backed at 445/1 and layed at 389/1 (can be laid at 319/1 now!! Pity I didn't wait!) 15th
Karlsson - Backed at 94/1 and layed at 74/1 Cut
Goosen @ 45/1 e/w (7 places) Cut
Westwood @ 11/1 Cut
McIlroy layed @ 6.8/1, can back now at 17/2 but don't think I will. Not yet anyway, I'll post it up if I do back him though. T25
I know Stenson and Bjorn can be got at much better prices on betfair, even at the time of placing the bet, but I wanted to use the free bet so there ya go! Hopefully one of them gives me a good run for my money.
I'd like to say that I got a good run for my money with Bjorn but I really didn't. I was going to lay him on Saturday evening (I think the lay was around 16 on betfair - could have put 50 on it and made €50 or €75 but my internet was out!) due to the BBC hardly showing him at all. I thought the coverage was really bad. It was just a Tom Lewis bum fest and they weren't showing Bjorn at all until Sunday afternoon and even then I didn't see much of him. Bit of a joke really considering he was in contention every single day. On the rare occasion they did show him they didn't say whether he was putting for birdie, par or whatever and I never saw him tee off apart from one hole where he ended up on the lip of a bunker. I saw basically every shot McIlroy (never really in contention) and Lewis (come Saturday he was a goner) though, yay ¬_¬. Even for the week due to laying McIlroy on betfair and if I had the balls I'd do the same at the US PGA championship but I think he has a good shot in that, I won't be backing him at 9s though, no chance0
