John Q. Hammons Hotel Classic

FINAL RESULT: 1-1; -0.21pts

Koch/Hjorth LOST by 4
Jang/Kung WON by 8

Split the plays so at least Jang earned some return for her effort this week.

 

Matchup plays (1.5pts):

Carin Koch to beat Maria Hjorth -114 @ Expekt
Big difference in form between these two last week. Whereas Koch won twice, halved once and lost only once in her four matches, Hjorth lost three times and won only once. Add in the fact that Koch finished five shots of Hjorth on this course last year and that she has totally dominated this matchup - she has finished behind Hjorth only seven times in 44 common events since 2003 - and this should be a straightforward win.

Jeong Jang to beat Candie Kung -110 @ BetFred
Backing Jang again. Kung did finish 3rd on this course last year and while she has been playing just as well recently, it has not been at the same level as Jang who has four top-5 finishes in her last five starts, whereas Kung does not have a top-10 finish in her last five. No surprise, therefore, that Jang has finished ahead of Kung in four of their last five common events.
