Kinda curious to see how Dufner does tonight, his game should suit Oak Hill, likewise Bradley. Zach Johnson's form is something to note too.

After a bit of grub and a cold one. Gone with Bradley.

I was leaning on Bradley all day tbh, proven Major winner and someone I've quite regularly bet on albeit in the past two years more so than this year.

You were right, live and learn

My god... furious with Jason Day.

Had himself and Kucher backed(another who broke my heart yesterday)

Bogies the last 3 holes so that rules out my EW bet.... Got himself up the -6, it was probably going to be too low to win but it would have been a 50/1 place.

I'm getting fed up betting on these majors, I have great luck in picking lads who are near the top heading into the business end but it's all hard luck stories from there. :mad:

Thats why betfair is so good, trading in running is the way to punt imo. I never use a bookie when betting on Golf & if you are backing guys say over 33/1 with the books you will get anything from 5 to 15 points bigger on betfair & loads more for the rags over 100/1. Never understand why people who bet on golf use the hight street, those extra places are a gimmick too as there are usually four dead heating.

Some of us have faith in our in selections. Some of us while take our golf betting seriously, have other things to bet with golf being a minor thing. I used to do the Betfair thing, but found myself stressing far more than when I wasn't. Questioning whether I should cash out on or not. Fair play to those who have belief in their betting selections I say. If I gave my full and honest thoughts on Betfair, I'd probably be infracted and it's not worth the hassle, so I'll just leave it at that

ya i often always lost my value by laying off. id have something backed to win say 200 and id find myself walking away with just over 100 if it wins.i only put up a lay at very low odds anymore.

Yes, each to their own is probably right. I only bet on golf so betfair suits me personally.

Billy Haas win purposes this week & Chad Campbell for a place as he needs the points to make the top 125 to reach the fed ex series.

Have these too,Romero on Betfair though in the 100's somewhere,Will trade if he gets anywhere near a good start.Backing Chris Kirk as well probably against better judgement though.Been a regular bet since he popped up on the forum lately,I'll give him another chance here at decent odds.

Seriously? Remember the only pga tour win Westwood had this century? Blew a 3 shotlead on the last. A winner himself since. You should know him from the tiny putter he used have if nothing else!

Mr.Prodston

He was also leading or at least contending only last week early on too?

Kinda wished I had seen this before placing my bets :pac:

Johnson is tearing up the course right now in difficult conditions given the scores it seems.

redzerdrog

great round by johnson today to get back in contention!

nice to have someone contention especially as i will be free to flake out and watch all tomorrows action

redzerdrog

is the golf on t.v anywhere?

Sky Sports seem to have on the red button from 8pm button sure it will be over by then

Nuri Sahin

Looks like my E/W run is over.

Simpson gave me a run for my money there. Fantastic round from him. Still a case of 2 good/excellent rounds and 2 average/poor ones though. Probably finish in the top 10 or just outside of it like Matsuyama.

redzerdrog

just had a couple of quid on reed there to cover my zach johnson bet and get some return but its only minimal.

coverage starting on the golf channel now for anyone interested
