Outright plays (1 unit):

Carlos Franco to win 25/1 e.w. @ Bet365, BetInternet, Totalbet, Paddy Power and UKBetting
Had been one to oppose, but the last three weeks have seen a dramatic improvement in Franco's form. Top-25 in the Las Vegas Classic and top-10 in the Disney Classic and Buick Challenge are worthy of attention. Has closed the last few seasons in good form and should improve on his top-25 finish last year in a very open event.

Kirk Triplett to win 33/1 e.w. @ Tote
Has been improving since he returned to competitive action last month with a top-25 finish in the Las Vegas Classic and a top-15 finish last week. Has never won outside California, but this represents his best opportunity. He has played six times at Annandale and finished 4th, 2nd, 13th, 7th, 7th and 23rd in the process. Obviously likes the course and could sneak another top-5 finish this week.

Joel Edwards to win 33/1 e.w. @ Tote and Ladbrokes
Edwards does not have the course record to match Triplett - he has yet to secure a top-25 finish in six visits - but he is in great form at the moment. He hasn't missed a cut since the Byron Nelson Classic in May and has finished in the top-30 in his last six events, including two top-10s. Certainly playing well enough to win for the second time in Mississippi.

Disappointing end to the 2002 PGA Tour season. The final round was cancelled and so wiped out any chance for at least the outrights to be in the black on this Tour. Triplett was only two shots outside a top-5 berth, while it was also frustrating to lose the double-play on Edwards when Micheel had made the cut right on the mark. Sums up this year's PGA Tour efforts!
