Round 1 play (2pts):

Darren Clarke to beat Ross Fisher -120 @ Bet365  LOST by 8
Both players were overlooked for the Captain's picks for the Ryder Cup, but even though Clarke had been a far stronger favourite to get the pick, I'd expect him to respond positively in his performance this week unlike Monty who has withdrawn. He did, after all, win the KLM Open and finished 6th in the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational last month so is playing well enough to post the perfect response to his omission from the team
