Matchup plays (2pts unless stated)

Hugh Baiocchi to beat Dale Douglass -138 @ Five Dimes  WON by 7
Easy to oppose Douglass whose best finish this year has been 66th in nine events, whereas has beaten that mark in seven of his ten starts and has finished behind Douglass only once since last year's 3M Championship.

Ed Dougherty to beat Andy North -102 @ Five Dimes [4pts]  LOST by 2
North does little more than serve as an analyst for ESPN these days, competing in a total of nine Tour events since August 2003 and this year his record reads 51st, mc, mc. That means no comparison with Dougherty who finished 6th in the Allianz Championship in June so it is a very surprising favourite in this matchup.

Morris Hatalsky to beat Jim Thorpe -111 @ Expekt  LOST by 1
With a 15-7-1 h2h record in favour of Hatalsky over the past year and a course record that reads 2nd, 13th and 8th in the last three years, it is easy to back the very consistent Hatalsky in this matchup.
