Spread Picks - Champions Tour

Tipster: Andy

Odds: Spreads

 
 
U.S. Senior Open

Summary: 3 Bets, 2 Wins, 1 Loss. Profit 11.7 Pts

Bet 1 - Sell Sam Torrance over Curtis Strange 18H MB at 0 with Sporting Index for 0.3 Pts MU -13, Profit 3.9 Pts
Torrance just hasn't taken to the Champions tour the way he has to golf in Europe. It is over 3 years since he produced a top 10 and his results in 07 are 42/cut/15 in three starts. Strange's last 7 starts read 11/11/12/11/41/33/12. Strange should be favourite here by a good couple of points.

Bet 2 - Buy Loren Roberts over Allen Doyle 18H MB at 8 with
Sporting Index for 0.3 Pts (7 at IG if not already on) MU 49, Profit 12.3 Pts
Doyle is the defending champion and that brings its own problems of course, but this win was a sporadic success and generally against Roberts, the younger man wins. 14-4-1 in R1 matches and 15-3-1 in matches means that 8 is possibly just a little too low and should be backed.

Bet 3 - Sell Tom Watson over Mark O' Meara 18H MB at 1 with
IG Sport for 0.3 Pts MU -16, Loss 4.5 Pts
H2H's this season sees a 2-1-1 lead for O'Meara with the defeat coming back in February in the first of the four meetings. Watson's appearances have been quite sporadic this year with only 5 starts even although he has produced a win and a 5ht place finish in that time whereas O'Meara has taken very well to this tour since a 38th place in his first start. Since then he hasn't been outside the Top 15 in 7 starts and realistically shouldn't be an underdog in this match if you examine the most immediate current form which is a must on this tour.
