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