    Great surge by Dufner, on top and looking solid at the minute.

    We should defend our way of life to an extent that any attempt on it is crushed, so that any adversary will never make such an attempt in the future.

    backed Jimmy Walker in this from the start,think I have 5er on at 45/1,i'll dig out docket if he wins.
    I still think he's still backable @8/1 tonight,hitting more greens than most and I like the fact he's not leading,he can get a bit nervy,hitting the ball great and very long off the tee also.

    The other value imo is Perez @33/1,his best chance is always posting a number before leaders and with his vast knowledge of this course he might be worth a fiver.

    Stuck a tenner on Scott @ 9/2 just now.

    I knew this before, but he's taking a break for a few weeks after this event so will want to go out there and finish up on a winning note. Only 3 shots behind with the third and final round to play. Hopefully himself and Dufner go low over the weekend.

    Well that was a waste of a free bet.

    Think Dufner will need to shoot -5 or -6 to win this outright last night.

    was looking at him before start of yesterday. 80-100's you could get. Hope I dont regret it.

    Have backed Will Wilcox at 16.5 for the win on betfair in Sony Open.
    Should he get off to any sort of decent start, e.g. -1 through 4 or 5 holes his price will drop dramatically. Will lay some off if he hits 4.0.

    Harris English is my 2nd pick. Hits it a mile and also proven on tight courses.

    I layed a bit off at 6/4 on exchanges so cant complain. Not touched place so hopefully that comes in too.

    Fair play to Walker, but I was confident English was going to win this, but beaten by better man on day.

    Took a couple of prices earlier in the week and following a few tips as well

    Volvo:
    Bjorn and Oosthuizen outright win

    Each ways:
    Quesne
    Fichardt
    Rumford
    Jeong
    Split a stake or 2 across Howell,Jacquelin and Aiken.Probably should've just stuck to Howell.

    Sony:
    Harris English
    Tim Clark
    Leishman
    Struard
    BVP
    Overton
    Hadley
    All each ways

    Fichardt and Struard are the 2 I'm happiest with now that their prices have came in.Was expecting Rumford,Pelt and Overtons odds to drop but they're the same.Took a few too many prices earlier in the week expecting them to drop.

    Not too optimistic about the Sony now,Think one of the top 5-8 will definitely bring it home.Volvo looks far more interesting for an outside challenge imo.
    A winner and 2 places.Had a good chance with English to win the Sony but didn't pan out.Can't believe he's only 24 BTW,Will be looking at him for the big prices down the line.

    Backed Kevin Na at 80's already for the coming Week. His price wont be round much longer imo.

    Will have more by Wednesday.

    Have a feeling Mciloy might walk it this week,Think his troubles are behind him.No interest in the price though.Will go for Mickelson out of the favourites.

    I know Kaymer has great form here so it's a pretty obvious pick but he's been a bit shabby the last few years in general.
    Towards the end of last year he looked like he was getting back to his old way of swinging and I'm expecting a good year from him.
    Was looking for 20/1 plus this week but the bookies as usual playing it safe.

    just out of interest did you finish ahead by much this week? did you lay many back?

    Not as much I hoped.Sony was a let-down the way the leaderboard was stacked yesterday,Expected a winner from the pack.Struard was possibly layable for a short time but I didn't see it.Guys like Overton are never really rated to do it so didn't come down enough to lay.Louis was worth laying at a time but I didn't go big on him so just let it ride.

    Humana
    Pretty sweet on Matt Jones @66/1 e/w this week,decent enough form and someone I've always kept an eye on.
    As usual this week it will be a bit of a putting comp and Jones is a really good putter,sometimes I just go with my gut,i just think this course is made for him.

    Just one at the moment for me in the Humana and its Sang Moon Bae at 120 on Betfair exchanges outright, 13s for top 10, 26s for top 5.

    So the reasons are
    Was first round leader last week and showed decent signs at the Hyundai Champions event
    Had a good 3rd round of 64 (don't know which course) last year, shooting a total of -18 (T27)
    2012 had a first round 64, eventually finishing t14

    Humana Challenge Picks

    John Peterson 95/1
    Nicolas Colsaerts 85/1
    Ben Martin 215/1
    Brian Stuard 55/1
    Billy Horschel 27/1
    Robert Garrigus 50/1

    Abu Dhabi-Mickelson single,Took this yesterday and he's drifted to 19 now raging a little about that. Each ways-Joost,Thorbjorn,Manassero,Karlsson(May follow Bob in his form:-D )Half a stake between Quiros,Aiken and Kruger.Might back Casey in-play if he starts a bit slow. Humana-English single. Each ways-Gay,Laird,Na,Guthrie and a stake split between Goosen and Byrd. Have a small silly double on Rory Mac and English.
