Title: US PGA
Post by: Rooky9 on August 04, 2008, 07:32:38 PM
I'm looking to get on some of the long shots again and get out at the end of day 1 and 2 for a small return.

My spots so far being:

D J Trahan - 210 - Looking to be in the US Ryder Cup team and talks a good game. I don't think I've ever seen him hit a shot though!
R Mediate - 190 - Ran well at the last two majors, love his attitude to the game and hope he gets plenty of coverage from being top of the leaderboard going into the weekend.
R Sabbatini - 150 - World number 12 (I think) but never seems to be in contention. I just think 150 is too long for 12th best player in the world.
N Dougherty - 470 - I ususally go for him, Howell or McDowell. I liked the number 470!
Monty - 380 - Completely ready for a win and get himself a pick for the Ryder cup!


FTW
M A Jimenez - 75 - Still in goot form and usually there or there abouts.


No Poulter bet for me this time...

Westwood is in great form atm

its the monkey form horses for me.........

Tommy Armour III @ 650/1 - backed him twice this year and he finished in places both times, yet to win this season but having best season so far by a millilon miles
Steve Marino @ 430/1 - backed him two weeks ago at 100/1 and he came third. Yet to win on PGA Tour but who knows
Parker McLachlin @ 370/1 - backed him earlier in season at 150/1 where he blew 3 shot lead with 5 holes to go to finish in the places but then redeemed himself when i picked him again last week at 80/1 when he romped to victory, hoping can strike again while iron is hot.

also had a saver on Geoff Ogilvy @ 46/1 :D

My Top 5 Picks go a Lil bit like this ...........

Harrington @ 18/1, well I'm Irish, so i always back him, even if winning  back to back majors is v unlikely, i would only be too sick then if he did win it and i wasn't on

Kim @ 25/1 , having a stormer of a season, apparently he may challenge Woods for years to come , we shall see .....

Karlsson @ 50/1 Mr.consistent, Top 5's galore this season, one time for the win ?

Ogilvy @ 40/1 I like his game , hasn't done too much lately so he must be due a good performance !

Love III @ 125/1 , had to pick someone over 100's, lets hope he rolls back the years , has shown slight form recently , ya never know !

Garcia just can't win! He will rue the badly played holes at the end.
