Midnight Caller Posted July 8, 2021 Author Share Posted July 8, 2021 I seem to have taken a fist full of French players this week! But forgot my roughie Coussand, who had a T30 finish last week and at 250/1 looks good value playing in Le Blu! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnight Caller Posted July 9, 2021 Author Share Posted July 9, 2021 Westwood gets pipped on the post @90/1 by a 500/1 shot for first round leader and nobody close in US. Look at early tee off players (-2 and upwards)for round two as they have perfect conditions this morning, with showers and light winds forecast for this afternoon at the Scottish Open.

Is it coming home? 😂 At least, if the poms bring out phrase this week it will makes more sense than the rubbish spouted by their football hooligans. Hoshino as top Asian at 9s Rozner as top Frenchmen at 3s 27 to 1. Not sure who will win the whole thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnight Caller Posted July 14, 2021 Author Share Posted July 14, 2021 (edited) Results from last week. Harmen disappointed by not even making the cut.Hatton put together 2 1/2 good rounds, but not good enough for a collect with his T18 finish. So it down to Miss Hewson @90/1 playing on her home course to balance the books.A slow start in the first round of the 54 hole contest, but played really well in the next two round for a T10 finish @ 9/1. After all that, we finish 1/2 pt on the right side of the ledger! For anyone taking muiltis last week, we had six T10 finishes, with the top four player combo paying 490/1 Edited July 14, 2021 by Midnight Caller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnight Caller Posted July 14, 2021 Author Share Posted July 14, 2021 (edited) Good to have you on board Happy! I was feeling a bit like Thoma talking to myself! Big week with the British Open kicking off on the Links course at Sandwich Bay . As expected ,a top field lines up on a course (wind gets up in the afternoons)that on the first two days should favour the early tee offs. Not much course form to go on as they haven't played here since 2011, with Clarke a surprise winner and the only hole he will be interested in this time round is the 19th! Rory is just not mentally there and Johnson is struggling with form. Selections were made on Saturday to get some value before prices started to fall after the Scottish Open. Reduced my investment to keep within budget and have pretty much looked outside the favs and have settled for stable runners of value! Hatton Poulter Palmer Lowry Herbert Roughie this week Rai @ 300/1 who had a couple of practice rounds there a few weeks ago. Scatter gun 1st round, I have gone for mainly early tee offs and value. Players above with Grace McIntyre Koepka Berger Armitage Bland Sullivan Wallace Lee. For the multi takers, I have got it down to a 6 - 4 -5 split .Chose from... Hatton Herbert Poulter Palmer Lowry Koepka USA: Taylor Lewis Power Werenski Europe LPGA: Thitikul Babnik Hewson Nuutinen (home course) Schmidt Come in VC!

His -6 and approach play on the last day at the Scottish Open was encouraging . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Sunrise Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 1 hour ago, Midnight Caller said: Wallace Matt Wallace (101) could be happy to be back home and perform. He did well on the pga tour a few tournaments ago. I wouldn't be surprised to see him up the leaderboard early on. My other first round leader bolters are Noren 81, Van Rooyen 126 and Catlin. Catlin has been going great guns on the European Tour and I figure while the big boys try to find their feet in the conditions in Round 1, Catlin could be the surprise at 151. As for Rory, he has gone too zen and all nice to win. He needs to go back to his younger days and show a bit more bloody mindedness in his attitude. Once the round is over he can go and meditate 😁 1 hour ago, Midnight Caller said: Hatton There is a man with an attitude and a desire to win.

Good solid last round in Scotland by Wallace and Noren doesn't seem to mind a Links course. Don't know much about Hoshino, but that Asian Market is pretty close.I see my favourite named player from the Japanese Tour, Kinoshita has flown in, @10/1 for a T40 finish would look the go for me.

Midnight Caller Posted July 15, 2021 Author Share Posted July 15, 2021 Links course playing tough this morning. Even par may well be a good score in the first round.Hoping last weeks selection Harman isn't at the top of the leaderboard at the end of play! Korn Ferry kicks off in a couple of hours, so suggest these players for the multi takers. Kohles Drewitt Albertson Yu Hall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnight Caller Posted July 16, 2021 Author Share Posted July 16, 2021 During Rd1, I couldn't resist Harmen £10 @40/1 and also 2nd Rd leader. Harrington to win his 3 ball in rd 2 looked a stand out! Nothing from first round leader, course is tripping a few up(mainly my selections),-1 or even par looks like the cut mark.Kinoshita 😁has an outside chance of making the cut.

Afternoon players got the best of it it seemed. I hope Louis wins as he would be deserving. Unfortunately, sentiment doesn't count for much on a links course in a major.

Midnight Caller Posted July 17, 2021 Author Share Posted July 17, 2021 Morikawa and Grillo were brilliant yesterday! Paddy wins his 3 ball convincingly to claw some back, that leaves us down 1 1/2 pts with a few outside chances for a collect in the final two rounds. Hatton was very disappointing, a 2nd missed cut in a major. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midnight Caller Posted July 20, 2021 Author Share Posted July 20, 2021 Speith was the only player of the 3 winning chances of any value and the first five holes were crucial for success!Unfortunately he started with 3 pars and 2 bogeys, which sealed his fate despite a round of 66. I've made a bit of cash off Morikawa in the past and he is always on my shortlist. The unconvincing T70 finish at the semi Links Scottish Open swayed me to drop him as a contender.Never again, as this guy seems to be able to play nearly every type of course! After "stopping " everything that moved (apart from Harringtons 3 ball) for the 3 days, day 4 was actually good to me. Down 1 1/2 pts going into the last round, we manage to secure collects from Lowry and a T20 finish for Rai gave us just under a 2 pt surprise profit.For the muilti takers ,I think there was 6 T10 finishers with Hewson again having another big final round. This week we are off to the lovely Celtic Manor course in Wales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnight Caller Posted July 22, 2021 Author Share Posted July 22, 2021 Not far away from tee offs in France and Wales! France: It can be a tricky course, so it's all about Jin -Young Ko this week.1st and muilti takers should look at Kupcho Henderson Kim HJ Kang , two bigger prices in Munoz and Pedersen. Wales:Ramsey for me has been bubbling away nicely of late and should be fresh to attack Celtic Manor. Could have taken about 20 players but have gone with.1st round Ramsey Jacquelin Harding Horsfield Van Tonder Rai Jordon Senior Horsey, and bigger prices Pulkkanen and Shinkwin. Muilti players take the 1st five . USA: There is no standout here, so 1st round Leboida McIntyre Davis Herbert Wolf Hadwin Champ An Van Rooyen . Muilti takers 1st five Good Luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midnight Caller Posted July 23, 2021 Author Share Posted July 23, 2021 No first round leader yesterday, Pedersen came agonisingly close @125/1 by lipping out at the par 5 15th which would have taken her to -4 and then an Eagle at the 18th, left her one shot shy of the lead. Today, for an interest we are having a play in the highest 2nd round score market. In France we are taking Pedersen Kim HJ Thitikul Popov Ko and 2nd Rd leader the 1st three. Wales Horsfield and 2nd Rd leader Seniors Open Els and 2nd Rd leader All the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnight Caller Posted July 28, 2021 Author Share Posted July 28, 2021 Got a bit lucky the week before, but the golf gods weren't giving up anything last week for a 3-1/2 pt loss. This week we visit Japan and Ireland Japan: Cam Smith , 1st round and muilti takers Matsuyama Morikawa Munoz Ireland: Catlin- I was saving him for Spain/Portugal, but this course suits.
