FINAL RESULT: 0-3; -6.50pts
Hatalsky/Jenkins LOST by 3
Morgan/Kite LOST by 6
Watson/Romero LOST by 7 What an awful return on this event. Hatalsky did lead
Jenkins before shooting 41 on the back nine on Sunday, but otherwise it was
always going to be a big loss overall with Kite finishing 4th and Romero 1st.
Matchup plays (2pts)
Morris Hatalsky to beat Tom Jenkins +101 @
Pinnacle
Will certainly take these odds on a player who has finished behind Jenkins just
twice in the last four months and one of those was courtesy of a final round 61
last week; Hatalsky had led him throughout the week until that one round. And
having finished ahead of Jenkins in two of three years here, it is hard to see
why Hatalsky is at plus odds.
Gil Morgan to beat Tom Kite -111 @
Expekt
Kite may have won last week's event, but it was the first time since April that
he has finished ahead of Morgan, so I'll stick with the better and more
consistent player.
(also available at BetFred and Centrebet)
Tom Watson to beat Eduardo Romero -114 @
Centrebet
For all his ability, Romero has not really performed in the few Champions Tour
starts that he has had. His two finishes this year have been 16th and 31st and a
similar performance should be no match for Watson who won here in 2003 and is
the course record holder.
