Sell Scott Simpson over Tom Jenkins R1 18H MB at 0 with IG Sport for 0.25 Pts (also at sporting index) M/U -19, Profit 4.75 Pts These two played in an incredible 23 events last year on this tour so there is a lot to examine and the results show that although Simpson won their head to head overall by 13-10-3, it was a reverse 13-10-3 to Jenkins in R1 scoring only. Long term form and scoring averages are very similar but, although not the most important factor, Jenkins does have some excellent course form. Figures of 7, 16, 17, 8, 7 the last 5 years is excellent, whereas Simpson finished a lowly 30th on his debut.
Buy Bobby Wadkins over Lanny Wadkins R1 18H MB at 5 with IG Sport for 0.25 Pts M/U -28, Loss 8.25 Pts A family 2 ball for us here but IG seem to underestimate how much better brother Bobby is. In 2007, Bobby won all 5 matches, by a combined 35 strokes over the 15 rounds and his R1 average M/U was over 18. Looking outwith H2H's, Bobby averages over 3 strokes less on this tour and has achieves Top 25 finishes nearly 50% of the time whereas Lanny is less than 1 in 10.
Buy Mark Wiebe over Pete Oakley R1 18H MB at 8 with IG Sport for 0.25 Pts M/U 16, Profit 2 Pts In four starts on this tour, Wiebe already has a win, two top 10's and a 24th finish. Comparing this to Oakley, who ended up on the European Senior tour last year, without a great deal of success, after a dismal run on the bigger tour, 8 is a fair price. Oakley hasn't had a top 30 finish since September 2005 on the Champions tour
2 Wins, 1 Loss, -1.5Pts. Just checked back to see it's 71 rounds since Lanny Wadkins shot 67 in a golf tournament, couple that with a real off day for Bobby and we suffer a loss that exceeds the return from the two wins.
