pukka Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 What are peoples predictions? Tiger is getting the headlines seemingly from one brilliant round. (I know hes picked up, but he's as short as 3/1 to win it?!?) If you are having a bet on the winner paddy power are paying top 6. Also if Tiger wins its money back for losing bets. Backed: Justin Rose @ 33/1 (and a fiver on him at 15/2 to be top GB/IRL player) Hunter Hahan @ 30/1 Matt Kuchar @ 66/1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveoafc Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 I've had : Luke Donald to win 16/1 Bubba Watson to finish in top 5 8/1 Charles Howell iii to finish in top 10 9/1 I reckon mcIllroy has a great chance too at 13/2 but you can't back them all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McIlroy was far too short for me to back him to win (Agreed he will go close). And G-Mac @ 80/1 is another name I looked at. Far too big a price for me.

I think he won the par 3 warm up competition yesterday and is said to be playing well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steveoafc Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Can't believe there's no shot tracker on the official us pga tour site, it's on for all the other competitions but not for the biggest ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebOAFC Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 I've taken small E/W bets with Paddy Power on Mahan, Watson and Donald as a starter. I find golf an absolute nightmare to bet on though (hence taking the E/W option) so I usually wait until after the cut to see who I fancy. Woods and McIlroy obviously look like they have chances but I'm not backing anyone at 4/1 in such a wide open field in a competition which has seen a fair few long odds winners.

mikebOAFC Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Missed the last couple of hours as had a day at the races and then a wedding to attend but nice to see Bubba win it. Some great golf earlier in the day though with a couple of aces and an albatross Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pukka Posted April 10, 2012 Author Share Posted April 10, 2012 (edited) Matt Kuchar @ 66/1 made me a decent profit. Gutted he bogeyed the 17th, I thought I was on for a peach of a weekend! Edited April 10, 2012 by pukka Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
