Open Championship:

1) Phil Mickelson @ 25/1
2) Ernie Els @ 28/1
3) Henrik Stenson @ 50/1
4) Nicolas Colsaerts @ 66/1

How sweet it is!

About damn time the wretched 2013 golf betting streak snapped. Far too many close calls this season as I've moaned about once or twice. Near €650 netted from Phil winning and Stenson placing. Happy out

I've been backing Day for two full years at majors so may as well continue. 35/1

I'd be looking at Gmac too @25/1 will go one of two ways.

I keep coming back to Bubba Watson now @100/1 on PP too and can't shake it. Donaldson could do something too.

Also sneaky punts on Branden Grace @66/1 , Lowry @100/1 and Colsaerts @66/1

Not tips per se but just what my gut's shouting at me.

Well thank the heaven's I threw some loose change on Matsuyama @175/1 e/w to break-even

Well done Nuri. Always good to see a Red winning a few quid. Although not sure if you're red or yellow (Dortmund) ?

Why are you calling him Pop Pop

From certain angles he reminds me of Pop Pop from Arrested Development. Been calling him that for 4 years now since my better half pointed it out.

Muff Richardson

any idea why you cant get prices on PP for WGC Bridgestone Invitational?

btw McIlroy @ 25/1 for USPGA, doesn't really make much sense to me...i'd be thinking at least 50/1 on recent form.

Nuri Sahin

Cheers lads.

Both. Long story short, I grew up following Liverpool. Started following Dortmund from World Cup 2006.

You're right. He should be closer to 50/1 than 25/1 alright, but it's case of punters continuing to back Rory + bookies being a tad cautious, after all, he's still top class golfer and he is well able to get out of his current slump. Reference last year's one for example.

Shandog

This weekend going for Snedeker at 14/1, Mcdowell 25/1 E/w and H.Matasuyama 35/1 E/W.

No interest in Europe this week for me.

RBC Canadian Open

1) Dustin Johnson @ 25/1
2) Hideki Matsuyama @ 35/1
3) Mike Weir @ 200/1

A note on Weir, he seems to be finding his feet again after a terrible season last year where he missed the cut in every event he played in over the course of 2012. Finished around the top 25 in both the US Open and John Deere Classic. He also has course form around this week's course at Glen Abbey after finishing in the top 5 and losing in a playoff in the past as well. Top 20 is 6/1, if it were 10/1 I'd probably throw something on it. The Canadian Canada Open curse is my only worry, but with Weir it's worth a couple of quid E/W. No harm on the wallet. Kinda half thinking of sticking a bit of money on Delaet too admittedly.

The Senior Open:

1) Mark O'Meara @ 18/1
2) Paul Wesselingh @ 80/1

this weeks bets

Deplasterer

Sneds at 15's & Schwartzel 23's on the exchange for me.

Russia tournament is smelly looking, wouldn't be surprised to see a 500/1 rag pop up.

applehunter

Schwartzel 20's 1/4 1,2,3,4,5,6

Another top 20 last week. Only a matter of time before he is in the winners circle.

frat

D Johnson and Kirk in US - Hend and Fleetwood in Europe - doubles btw the lot.

Also a double of Johnson and O'Meara in the Seniors Open

Nuri Sahin

Completely mind blanked on the Senior Open Championship >_<

Good luck with sneds everytime i back him he dont be near it

Nuri Sahin

Hopefully you'll throw up a pic up if he does go onto win

Anyway, probably need another 63 from Johnson to have a chance today. Real shame about his first round. Can't see both Brandt Snedeker and Kuchar having average to poor rounds.

That's the beauty about the golf, it's the fear that kicks in when you don't back them. Looking at the betting for the uspga, just on powers Zach Johnson is 50's not a bad price and Kuchar is 33. Have to check odds checker not bad prices for them.

Just backed merrick 25/1 e/w come in boy

I don't after-time.

Also after-timing without a pic is against the charter AFAIR.

I thought Langer's odds were too low... :pac:

From hazy memory, between 9/1 and 16/1. I think Couples was 7/1(?) generally and Langer was second favourite, so I imagine he probably was closer to 9/1. Short odds and a disappointing Senior US Open display a couple of weeks ago when I had backed him made me look elsewhere.

didnt look at it in great detail coz was very busy this week but vaguely recall think he was too short aswell and didnt have a bet at all!

he has some record this year though 6 top 3s and 13 top 25s in 14 events is some going.

has a great record in majors aswell

in hindsight what the f were we thinking!!!!!!! :-(
