Kellogg-Keebler Classic (1.5pts):
Lorena Ochoa to win 20/1 e.w. @
William Hill
and
Ladbrokes
Sorenstam may be trying for a three-peat, but the value lies in players
like Ochoa who have finished in the top-10 in six of the last seven
starts, winning once in that stretch. She gained course experience with
a top-20 finish last year and will surely finish much higher this time
around.
Becky Morgan to win 40/1 e.w. @
William Hill
Morgan's form has been almost as impressive, particularly for someone at
twice Ochoa's odds. She has finished in the top-20 in six of eight
starts this year and in the top-3 twice last month. She played well when
in contention for the Chick-fil-A Charity Championship to finish 2nd,
but fell back to 3rd in the Sybase Big Apple Classic after leading the
event after the 2nd and 3rd rounds. However this was the first time that
she had been leading with one round to play. A 3rd place finish last
year is also supportive at these odds.
Shi Hyun Ahn to finish in the top-five 8/1 @
Five
Dimes
Struggled with her putting last week despite the top-five finish, so if
she can improve in this department she should certainly be back in
contention this week. Has played each week with no course experience,
but has still recorded three top-5 finishes in eight starts and that
makes these odds look rather generous.
Final update: 1-2; -2.62pts
Ochoa 5th
Morgan 17th
Ahn mc
Ochoa shared 5th place with Angela Stanford to ensure a small return
on the play, but a loss on the outrights overall. The end came a round
too soon for Morgan whose last 36-hole form was as expected, but an
opening 74 left her too far off the pace.
