FINAL RESULT: 0-1; -2.20pts
Inkster/Creamer LOST by 13
Lee/Han TIED (push)
Steinhauer/Pettersen VOID (Pettersen dns)
A convincing loss in the only match that ended in a positive result, but it
could have been a good week in the matchups. Han looked sure to miss the cut
until closing her 2nd round in 2-under-par for the last six holes and
Steinhauer's top-10 finish should have easily been enough to beat Pettersen had
she played.
Matchup plays (2pts): Juli Inkster to beat Paula Creamer -110 @
The Greek
Will back Inkster against a player who also played six rounds of golf in four
days last week. Maybe fatigue will be more of a factor for the elder Inkster,
but Creamer's ongoing wrist problems will surely suffer more from such an ordeal
last week. But she does finish ahead of Inkster, it will only be the fourth time
that she has done so in fourteen common events this year.
(also available at Pinnacle) Seon Hwa Lee to beat Hee-Won Han +113 @
Pinnacle
A hedge play against outright selection, Han who should have won on each of her
last two visits to Highland Meadows, but whose form has dipped slightly since
her run of five top-5 finishes in April-May. In that period, Han finished ahead
of Lee in every event, but since then, Han has a 4-0-1 h2h lead against Han.
With both players suited by this tight, short course, these odds look more than
fair.
(also available at Expekt, Five Dimes and BetFred) Sherri Steinhauer to
beat Suzann Pettersen -128 @
Five
Dimes
Big difference in form between these two players. Pettersen managed to reach the
2nd round last week, whereas Steinhauer lost in the 1st round, but Steinhauer
has finished ahead of Pettersen in each of their last five common strokeplay
events and that run includes a 2nd place finish in the ShopRite LPGA Classic
last month. Pettersen hasn't finished in the top-10 since April. |
