Matchup Picks - LPGA Tour

Tipster: Stanley

Odds: Matchups

ShopRite LPGA Classic

FINAL RESULT: 2-1; +2.43pts

Neumann/Gustafson WON by 1
Kerr/Inkster LOST by 9
Jang/Kang WON by 1

They even out over the course of the season and this case in just one week. Two single-shot losses on the Champions Tour were cancelled out by two single-shot wins in this event. Quite happy to lose the Kerr bet - she finished 11th - as Inkster was a winning outright play.

 

Matchup plays (1.5pts unless stated):

Liselotte Neumann to beat Sophie Gustafson -111 @ NordicBet
Both players with a mixed course history, this is a play on the golfer in the better form. They have played in eight common events in 2005 and Gustafson has finished ahead of her compatriot only once.

Cristie Kerr to beat Juli Inkster -138 @ SkyBet
Maybe a hedge play on the Inkster outright bet, but still a recognition that as consistent as Inkster has been, she is not currently in the same classic as Kerr, who has finished ahead of her in eight out of their last ten common events. And her course is not too bad either: she is the defending champion.

Jeong Jang to beat Jimin Kang -120 @ Centrebet and SuperOdds [3pts]
Opposing last week's maiden Tour winner as she competes on this course for the first time and has finished ahead of Jang only three times out of their last ten common events. Looking for another top-10 finish form Jang this week.
