Im on the gay bandwagon, and I said beforehand aslong as he's in the top 110 after today i'll be happy. Its looking good so far

On another note, me and two lads in work thought we'd have a bet and one of the lads who knows nothing about sport just picked a random player... Ben Curtis. Throw those formbooks out the window.

When Jeremy Chapmans puts up his tips on Wednesday in the racing post ,you can guarantee that if he picks one of yours ,the price will go down faster than Andy Johnson did in the penalty area ,when he played for Everton.
Tiger of course should win,followed him at Hoylake when he started his round on the opening day ,he bogied the first and then never had another bogey in the next 71 holes winning easing up.
Links golf suits the Tiger but as my name is value seeker 2/1 is not for me and I will  look else were.
Lee Westwood has been drawn with Tiger ,that will help me more than hinder him.He has come in to a bit of form, losing in a play off ,then just out the top5 at the Scottish open,he has to be considered.
Jim Furyk has been knocking at the door a lot lately but no one is answering ,its been a few years since he entered the winners enclosure but he is too good a player not to be in the winners circle for so long and at 35/1 is real value.
Hunter Mahon has been ultra consistant of late and is capable of shooting low in the sixties ,not known over here too much ,but feel that might change by Sunday night and expect him to be thereabouts.
[/b]Suggested bets
1pt WIN Westwood 33/1 betfair
2pts top five finish Westwood7.4 betfair
1pt ew Hunter Mahon 33s hills
1pt ew Jim Furyk 35 hills.

added
3pts Lehman top senior 9/4
0.5 pts Hunter Mahon first round leader 44s betfair
total staked=11.5 points

Quite satisfied with start .westwood flew out the traps and was able to quickly get my stake back with four straight birdies ,furyk I feel will go mighty close ,Hunter Mahon was a disapointment ,but could still make the weekend.
Even thought Watson had a great first day,Lehman is well there to be top senior and land my biggest stake.

Why is Woods so short in the betting compared to Jimenez ? It isnt as if there is only a few shots difference.

Yet again Woods drifts after the first day of a major, he almost always does and must surely rank as the best lay to back bet around.

Fancy Furyk to win his threeball today against Harrington and Ogilvy,tee off 2.20.
The way Harrington is playing its just a two ball imo so the 7/4 isreal value
suggested bet
3pts Furyk to win threeball ,7/4 baldfred,ladcrookes and blue square.

return 8.25 points
profit 5.25 points

See no reason why Furkk should not repeat todays win in tommorrws three ball.out at 9.09 am
3pts furyk to win three ball 2.36 betfair.

jim does the biz again ,7.08 points returned ,profit 4.08 points
profit on furyk over the two days=9.33 points

If you told me that going into the last day ,I would have had fourth and sixth and Tiger Woods was on a plane home ,I would have bit your hand off for it.
Feel Watson will do a Greg Norman last year and just come up short ,bit worried about Ross Fisher though.
Goosen though a major winner has been recently falling apart on Sundays , hope he does tommorrow .Ask me how Furyk played today and I wouldnt be able to tell you.
Jim has been the forgotten man on the TV coverage from the BBC and we hardly seen a shot from him today ,once the leaders went out.
Think maybe the MAN THE bbc forgot , can win tommorrow ,hoping for a 1-2  with Westwood and Furyk that will help the old bank balance

I still have the five I backed all playing although none of them are in the top ten. However the one I will be rooting for all day is Tom Watson - what a story if he pulls it off.

Not too happy ,Westwood bogied  three out the last 4 holes,what with Perry throwing away a major away on me ,earlier in the season ,bit annoying

very unfortunate on 18

knocked the stuffing out of him, in truth and the putt he missed to go into the play off was a tired one

well played cink; the open is, as ever, won by the man who overall played the best golf, simple as that.
