Round 1 play (4pts):

Kyung-Tae Kim to beat Simon Dyson +122 @ Extrabet  WON by 8
Good price to back the home player. Kim is mainly based on the Japan Tour where he was a three-time winner last year, but he does play on the Asian Tours when they hold events in South Korea - his last five finishes in his home country have yielded finishes of 13th, 3rd, 16th, 2nd and 4th. In the last three weeks, he has made the cut at The Masters and finished 7th and 12th, so he is clearly in very good form and looks set to finish highly in his home country again.

Round 2 play (2pts):

Dustin Johnson to beat Seung-Yul Noh -150 @ SkyBet  WON by 8
Opposing Noh who lies 125th after the opening round. He had been tipped in places for this event, but such a poor opening round (in which he failed to record a single birdie) was no great surprise. In his last six starts, he has missed the cut four times, finished 59th in the no-cut Cadillac Championship and lost 7&6 in the 1st round of the World Matchplay. Johnson opened with 70 to lie 11th after the 1st round and should be able to shoot a similar score tomorrow.

Round 3 play (6pts):

Chapchai Nirat to beat Dae-Hyun Kim +115 @ 5Dimes  LOST by 3
Opposing Kim who has missed the cut in both of his Tour starts this year. He has clearly benefitted from playing in his home country this week, but he has been under the radar so far this week and he certainly won't be tomorrow as the 2nd-highest ranked South Korean on the leaderboard. For someone who plays on the OneAsia Tour, it will be quite an experience to be playing in the group ahead of Lee Westwood and the group behind Dustin Johnson. He failed to live with this pressure when in a similar position in last year's China Open - he shot 75 in the 3rd round - so a repeat performance may be on the cards. Nirat is much further down the leaderboard, but he is a player who is a regular on the European Tour, securing two top-10 finishes last year and will be playing without any pressure on him.
