Summary: Bets: 5, Wins: 3, Losses: 2. Profit 8.7 Pts.

Bet 1 - Sell Mark Calcavecchia over Fred Funk 18H MB at 0 with Sporting Index / Bet HiLo for 0.3 Pts M/U -34, Profit 10.2 Pts
A 12-3 H2H and an over 60% win rate in rounds played between them over the last year suggests that too much leeway is being given to the fact that Calc is tipped by a few of the popular tipsters this week.

Bet 2 - Sell Ryan Armour over Doug LaBelle 18H MB at 0 with IG Sport for 0.3 Pts M/U 16, Loss 4.8 Pts
A fairly noticeable fact that we have a 15-8 R1 lead for Labelle where most other stats suggest a closeness in these two players respective abilities. Both players have similar starts to the season, both achieving a Top 10 and Armour is possibly only pitched favourite due to a particularly good autumn period before the Christmas break. 

Bet 3 - Buy Mark Calcavecchia FP at 38 with Sporting Index / Bet HiLo for 0.6 Pts, M/U 48, Profit 3.6 Pts
Similarly to opposing Calc on the 18H bet, we oppose him on FP's at a price he has only beaten 6 times in his last 25 starts over 12 months.

Bet 4 - Buy Peter Lonard FP at 43 with Sporting Index / Bet HiLo for 0.3 Pts M/U 3, Loss 12 Pts
Lonard, similarly, has only achieved 8 finishes better than 43 in the same time span and seems a little low as his only form of note is 14th in Phoenix, his only Top 30 since last August.

Bet 5 - Buy J. B. Holmes FP at 41 with Sporting Index / Bet HiLo for 0.3 Pts M/U 80, Profit 11.7 Pts
Holmes has missed 3 cuts this year since his 4th place start in Hawaii, and he ended the barren spell with a Top 20 at Pebble. Even allowing for the substandard field due to the bigger event in Arizona, this price seems low.
