FINAL RESULT: 0-3; -6.00pts
Bryant 14th
Edwards 14th
Stadler 14th No chance of a return on the Bryant and Stadler plays, but a
small overall profit looked very likely with Edwards finishing in the top-5.
That is, until he finished 5-6-5-5! Outright plays (total stake per play: 2pts)
Brad Bryant to win 20/1 e.w. @
BetInternet
and
Tote
Continuing to ride the Bryant train for another week at least. The 3rd-ranked
player on the Money List has finished no worse than 14th in any event in the
last five months, winning on two occasions. He did finish 16th on his debut here
last year, but to put that into perspective, it was his 2nd-best finish in ten
events. There really is no reason why he shouldn't be high on the leaderboard
yet again this Sunday.
David Edwards to win 22/1 e.w. @
BetInternet
While Bryant is 3rd-ranked on the Money List, Edwards is one place ahead of him
in 3rd in the Scoring Average stats and has finished 1st and 3rd in the last two
Tour events. As a Tour rookie, he has not played on this course previously, but
that has not held him back this year. While Loren Roberts may be the player to
beat this year, Edwards has shown that he is capable of doing so and was
expected to be available at much shorter odds.
Craig Stadler to win 25/1 e.w. @
William Hill
And so was Stadler. His form has been patchy this year, but he was tipped for
the 3M Championship following a strong performance in the Senior British Open
and finished 2nd. His play was so strong that week that he hit 87% of greens in
regulation. If he can maintain this form, he will surely go close to repeating
his victory here two years ago.
