RESULT: 4-7, +2.3pts 

 

 

update after round 3:

 

Molder traded as low as 3.2 during round 3 just not quite enough to hit the lays. Laying a bit off now and leaving the two existing lays up to hopefully be matched in-running.

 

 

 

position now:

update after round 2:

 

Molder leads at the halfway stage, but rather than lay any off at the current price I will hope for better 'in-running'

If it wasn't for the concerns over his 6 weeks off since The Masters then last year's winner of this event would probably be going off at near half this price. He insists the injury isn't too serious and I'm going to put my faith that he wouldn't play if he felt he wasn't ready and maybe the rest will have done him some good!

 

 

A good record round Colonial over the years and seems to produce his best performances in the south.

 

 

A made cut last week after a string of 3 misses hopefully signals a return to form for a player who has popped up near the top of leaderboards several times this season. Question marks still remain about his ability to get the job done, but at the least he may provide a trading opportunity.

 

 

Two Aussie winners in two Texan events suggest maybe there is something in the oft-postulated link of similar conditions. Going with these three to make it a hattrick.

 

 

Same as ever with the lays - all players who you can make good cases for this week but because of that very fact they have been backed in too short.
