Buick Classic (1.5pts unless stated):

Stephen Ames to beat Adam Scott -110 @ SIA
Straightforward choice. While Ames has been in superb form with six top-7 finishes in his last seven starts and finished 9th on his last visit to Westchester, Scott has missed three of his last four cuts, including rounds of 79 and 80 (twice). He also finished 14 shots behind Ames on the only occasion he played here.

Jay Haas to beat Shigeki Maruyama -114 @ Expekt
In their last five events, Haas has three top-10 finishes and no missed cuts; Maruyama has one top-10 finish and two missed cuts. It is therefore no surprise that Haas has finished ahead of Maruyama in each of their last four common events and should make it five this week.

Fredrik Jacobson to beat Miguel Angel Jimenez -120 @ William Hill and Easybets [3pts]
I just think that Jimenez is completely overrated as a golfer. He had a torrid time when he last committed to the PGA Tour and his record on this course is not particularly impressive. I will always have Jacobson in this matchup. He also completes a trio of matchups in which the outright selection is backed again.

Kenny Perry to beat Loren Roberts -130 @ WSEX
Perry's big-hitting will be of little use around Westchester and he hasn't played here for a decade, but he is still a completely different class of player to the fading Roberts. Roberts has failed to finish ahead of Perry in any event since the Bob Hope Classic in January, can't see it happening this week despite the course.

Vijay Singh to beat David Toms -150 @ Five Dimes
One swallow and all that ... Toms still has a lot to prove if he is to be back in the top class of players on Tour. His record in this event is mixed at best, which three missed cuts in five starts and any fears that Vijay is golfed-out should be erased by looking at his form before the Masters. It showed a similar downturn after an incredible run, but started to improve considerably just before the Major. It should happen again this week.

Adding (1.5pts):

Kenny Perry to beat Chris DiMarco -134 @ Pinnacle
Opposing DiMarco who has never broken par on this course in his four previous visits - he missed the cut every time. Perry is coming off a top-10 finish in the Memorial and should easily make the cut.

Final update: 4-1-1; +5.75pts

Ames/Scott LOST by 3
Haas/Maruyama TIED (Dead heat)
Jacobson/Jimenez WON by 15
Perry/Roberts WON by 2
Singh/Toms WON by 12
Singh/DiMarco WON by 3

Healthy profit on the matchups to more than cover the losses on the outrights. Was rather fortuitous that Roberts crumbled so badly when leading the event after three rounds. There was a 12-shot swing in the final round on that play!
