USPGA Championship - Where will your money be?

[Parmo]

Morning All,
Just wondering if any of you where having a flutter on this weekends golf?

I quite fancy:-

Harrington - 20-1 £5 ew (safe bet for the top 6 I think)
Westwood - 25-1 £5 ew (I just know he will bottle it, so not 100% on this one quite yet, so might change to VJ)
Appleby - 45-1 £5 ew (my wild card and has been in form recently)

Your thoughts welcome.

Don't dicount Westwood he's playing well, he just needs to bring the shortstick under permanent control

btw what odds on Darren Clarke If he's playing?

 

[Parmo]

Clarke is 100-1

 

[Cernunnos]

now that's worth an each way bet for my money :biggrin:

 

[Parmo]

Yep, would be nice to see him finish in the top 10.

I have gone for: -

Westwood & Harrington £5ew, any more and the wife might murder me.

 

[Cernunnos]

Then there is Poulter, now he's been performing oddly well recently & I think he's going to suprise a lot of people with a win very soon.

 

[medwayjon]

Poulter and Westwood at £5 e/w.

 

[time_vans]

poulter (60-1) and kim (30-1) my selections

 

[andiritchie]

poulter looks good to me

 

[Cernunnos]

Think I've started something here... If I'm to get a bet on Poulter, Clarke & Westwood I'd best do it in the morning before the odds drop too much on Poulter.

 

[Dodger]

on Paddy at 22/1,Goose at 25,Fuyrk at 25 and a couple of longshots Trahan and Verplank both 110's.

I'm spending £150 on a big stick, so daren't approach the wife for betting funds!!!

If I had it would be e/w on Poulter and Hunter Mahan.

My money would not be on a European, although I suppose they do have to break their duck at some point. No European winner in 77 years, pathetic.

To pick a winner I would need to compile a list of journey man Americans no one has ever heard of, and then randomely pick one out with a pin and a blindfold.

May watch a bit tonight, as it looks like I won't be playing golf due to the usual rain.

Except the rider team who battered the US!!! I heard the course has changed a lot, so this may open things up, I do fancy Appleby though.

My money will be in my pocket with tiger.......... and hawk (both moths )

An Aussie or yank to win! Scott or Weekly

 

[Parmo]
