makateer Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 I have a tenner ew on Anthony Kim at 50/1, so I'm hoping he can challenge but I don't think he has much chance. I reckon old Greg will win it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Old Tolbooth Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 I think if Norman holds it together just like he has the first 3 days then a 2 stroke lead could prove invaluable. He's currently trading at 7/2 on Betfair which is an enormous price considering he's 2 strokes in front, Harrington is favourite to win at 3/1, with Choi sitting around the 5/1 mark. I fancy an outsider to have a good round, someone currently sitting at around 40 or 50/1, and I'm going to plump for the Swede, Noren to clinch the title at odds of around 50/1 on Betfair (just a very small ?2 wager), and I might also stick a few ?2 bets on some other outsiders too.

Fat Striker Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Harrington looks very confident and is playing well. My hopes are on Choi @ 100/1. Hopefully I'll at least get place money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Choi looks pretty steady so far mate, hope you get your place like. Just stuck a cheeky fiver on Norman at 5/1, not bad price for a joint leader, but could do with Harrington slipping a shot to take advantage of a jump in price for him too.

tammyb1985 Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 I've got cash on Norman and Padraig. Can see a random putting in a strong round and taking it. With those conditions you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tammyb1985 Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 I just put some cash on Garcia. Can see alot of dropped shots from the leaders as the weather gets worse. Garcia will play the par 5's on the back 9 before the wind gets really bad......or il be totally wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Old Tolbooth Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 It's not half getting interesting now like, anyone from 8 I reckon could win it! I took Wakefield at 25/1 (?3) but unfortunately the Swede has fell out of it a bit (?2 @ 50/1) just for some interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's even par for the round so far and everyone else is over par, he's just went second favourite with Betfair too at 7/2. He was 33/1 earlier!

I P Knightley Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 I feel sorry for Norman, it looks like he's bottling it a bit already. The old shark looked pretty nervous over the first few holes which convinced me he wasn't going to do it. What got him to where he was last night was a "who gives a toss?" approach - almost laughing at his own poorer shots. It seemed he was taking today too seriously but now he's loosened up a bit and the others are struggling, he will still be in the mix - I hope!

Chizzy, Furyks score certainly looks pretty good now that he's home and hosed, but I think Poulter looks solid enough to just pip that score with a very birdieable 17th to come. Worth a fiver tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth a fiver tho Poulter had a great chance to tie but his 3rd shot to 15 was awful. It's so easy to drop 2 shots so anything is still possible!!

Your not wrong, I got a bit carried away with myself there. Once I had calmed down, I checked my account, and the grand total I got back was......... wait fot it........... ?20.52 The champagne got put back in the fridge pretty sharpish.
