Midnight Caller

In 1983 the fastest  Athletics mile run recorded on video was...

(A) Where?

(B) Winner ?

(C) Winning time?

Fox, even par through 4 holes.

Hillier about to tee off and will be buzzing in a group with Fowler and Homa. Weather is unpredictable today, so a real test for all the players.

Kiwi lads Hillier and Fox travelling  OK after the second round. I thought Fox was a little unlucky not finishing on -6, although  being fair his last 3 holes 7-8-9 were playing the hardest of the day. Hillier has lost nothing for his win and must be a place T10 chance  in The Open next week. Being from Wellington, the forces of mother nature shouldn't  hamper him on a Links course.

These fields call for the random generator 🎯

One for the early  risers in Kiwi. 

Late tee off for Tom Whitney,who is familiar more than most with the course and a tasty 65-70/1

Concentrating on mainly  Europe  this weekend...

Challenge Tour: Elvira  Hammer  Manassaro  Walker  Pineau

Scottish Open: Anyone in the field could win this!  Aberg  Lee M W  Homa  Lowry  Rai  Fox  -  Roughies  Ferguson  Forrest  Hilliar

Korn Ferry: Skinns  Tuten  Hoey

Barbasol USA : Nothing here as tournament usually  throws up a first win on tour. Those looking at muiltis could throw in form players Pendrith  Norrman Streelman and roughie Kordaira who has some course form.

Two winners and a placing last week left us a tidy 28.5pt profit ,after  previous weeks -7 and -5pt losses.

Final rounds today, could do with Manassaro putting  his head down on the line later today on the Challenge  Tour. Off plan, have win only  tickets running  on Smith and Schenk. Smith finding some nice form ahead of defending his Open crown in a couple of weeks.This year they play Royal Liverpool where Rory won back in 2014.

That was glorious to watch, and to hold his nerve on the last . That second to last putt looked like he had left it short and his reaction showed it, but it dribbled over the hump and kept going to give him a shot at it which he did. Great to see another Kiwi doing well on the world stage, he always showed potential.

Watch those last four holes again Globe, it was simply outstanding golf. I followed the young fella for a couple of holes on Thursday, where he parred and bogeyed the holes. He looks your typical Kiwi athlete with power and a strong core. He has come a long way since hitting  the European  Challenge Tour two years ago.More wins are definitely  in the pipeline. 

There is a clip going around showing Bairstow playing keeper for Yorkshire against  Nottinghamshire. Bairstow up close to the stumps for a spin bowler, batman plays and misses, Bairstow takes and waits 4/5 seconds. Batsmen in his crease lifts his back foot to balance himself and Bairstow  whips the bails off! Commentators praise Bairstow!

DP Tour roughie local lad Axelsen

Reporting for duty PJ. Slot me in with whoever will take me.

Cheers 

After having  four winners in six weeks, the last two weeks have been poor by my standards. 

We have faith in the formula and stable runners...

DP Tour: Ferguson  Olsen  Migliozza R Hojgaard 

USA: Just two roughies Wu and Lipsky.  Those looking for shorter odds should  consider Mitchell  and Jaeger

Challenge Tour Italy: Feldborg-Nielson  Scalise  Manassaro  Pavan  Rusch

LPGA: Furoe  MJ Lee  M Kang

Outstanding last 4 holes by Hillar  to claim the British  Masters in a Kiwi like finish. Well done young fella👍

USA: Lee  T Kim  SW Kim  Hardy Theegala 

LPGA: MJ Lee  Buhai  JY Kim

Last one from me...

Those who like a Chinese whisper, both JT and Hovland were on 🔥🔥 during the practise round on Monday.1st round leader/winner 🪙

Golf can be a cruel game! Last week Fillipo Celli (big odds) leads by one shot with just the 17th and 18th left.Bogeys both holes and loses in a playoff 🙄. Four placings last week left us a nice little profit.

This week we have the third Major of the season, the US Open in Los Angeles and the European  Challenge Tour. 

US OPEN: Koepka - the pick of the players short in the market. 

Homa - Local lad who is one of only a few that has course form and has shot a 61 around here, be that  was a few years ago. 

Rose - In great form with a win and  consistent T10 finishes  this season. 

S W Kim - great value in the field.Got him at 80/1, now into 66/60. 

Challenge Tour: Celli - Brown - Scalise - Townsend - Regnar

LPGA: OH looks great value e/w T10 finsh.

Off plan in the US Open I will roll a few coins on roughies Young - Cole - MW Lee - Fox - Suh.

Off plan have an antepost on Smith running. 

Good luck

What are peoples thoughts  on Postecoglou?
