Starts Thursday week ,Tiger is bound to be a warm order after Sundays win ,best you can get is 2s with tote,vc and corals.
Sybet dont want any Tiger bets thats why they are going 13/8 the tiger.
Jim Furyk was an unlucky second beaten just one shot on Sunday,he takes a well earned rest this weekend ,not appearing in the St Jude Classic,Jim has been knocking at the door for a while now ,close on two years since he last won.
Thats too long for such a good player ,reckons he is a real solid each way bet for the second major of the season and is a working mans price.
Suggested bet
2pts ew Furyk 25/1 tote ,blue square.

Back a European to win the US open ,dont think so ,save your money its been 39 years since it happened.
Padraign Harrington and Sergio Garcia are in really poor form , but one who certainly isnt is Paul Casey.
Third in the world ranks this season ,and amazingly he has took his European form across the water.
If Woods is on his game ,its not rocket science to know he will go mighty close ,Jim Furyk is a winner waiting to happen imo ,so maybe when backing a European its best to leave the outright market alone.
McIiroy is a danger but feel its far to early for him needs some major performances on his c.v first,Stenson is a slight worry but lookes out of sorts in Memphis ,the two main dangers are Luke Donald and the clothes horse Ian Poulter(1.01 on betfair to win best turned out).With sportingbet 6/1 blackprint .i reckon its a solid bet for Casey to win what i consider is just a three horse race.
recommended bet
3pts Top European ,Paul Casey .6s sportingbet.plenty of 11/2 about sj ,corals etc
Already advertised see previous post 2pts ew Furyk 25s .

Haven't had a bet since the grand national so going a bit mad this week
I've also had a little bit on Harrington to miss the cut. With his recent form the 3/1 was just a little too tempting.

Missed the cut by eight shots!!!!!!!!
What about Duval ranked 882 in the world , win less since Royal Lytham in 2001,finished 2nd at 500/1.
Nice to see that ,but another big outsider goes in ,what a year its been for the bookies in major sporting events .Glover was best priced 225/1 poke , didn't enjoy this major at all as the draw played such a big part ,you needed a late-early draw for the first two rounds due to the weather and the first 5 home got just that.

very pleased to see 3 Europeans inthe top 10 in what is always the most pro-American of the majors in terms of results.
Excellent in particular from ross Fisher.
Lovely to see Duval back; rather like him, I have to say. His speech when he won the Open was great. Nice guy.
