Memorial Tournament (1.5pts unless stated):
Stephen Ames to beat Craig Parry -125 @
BetandWin
[3pts]
Huge difference in form between these two players. Parry has missed
three cuts in his last four starts; Ames has finished no worse than 7th
in his last four. He did finish one stroke behind Parry on his debut on
this course last year, but will improve now that he has course
experience. Parry has missed five of seven cuts on this course so he has
a lot of improving to do.
Retief Goosen to beat Kenny Perry -114 @
Centrebet
Perry does have a good record in this event, but he is far from the form
that he displayed in the middle of last summer. Goosen can also boast
good form at Muirfield Village and while he has also been missing cuts
this year, he has been finishing much higher up the leaderboard when he
does not.

Zach Johnson to beat John Rollins -111 @
BetandWin
Johnson has a 8-1-0 h2h lead this year over Rollins who has made only
two of thirteen cuts. Nothing more needs to be said!

Stephen Leaney to beat Scott McCarron -111 @
BetandWin
Top-35 in his last three starts and on this course last year reads a lot
better than McCarron's failure to make the cut in each of his last four
events and in each of his last five visits to Muirfield Village.
Nick Price to beat Justin Rose -111 @
BetandWin
This is a shotmaker's course that requires experience and Price
certainly fits the bill. He hasn't played here for a number of years,
but is in good form and should certainly finish in the top-25. Will be
more of a struggle for Rose who is making is debut and was competing in
the Volvo PGA Championship last week. Not ideal preparation and his
unpredictable form since the Masters is likely to continue this week.
Final update: 3-2-0; +2.63pts
Ames/Parry WON by 18
Goosen/Perry LOST by 3
Johnson/Rollins WON by 2
Leaney/McCarron WON by 2
Price/Rose LOST by 14
Decent profit on the matchups thanks largely to a win on the
double-play. Ames contrived to finish outside the top-5, but still kept
up his run of great form to win easily against Parry.
