Ganganjeet Bhullar @ 25/1.

A rising star, he has great course form and a very bright future.

This is an extremely weak field and 25's is huge.

Are you still posting from your travels?

I'm on board.

thanks, sure wont get on.

Good choice Keith. This guy is gonna be the next big thing from India. He shot a last round 64 to win the Asian Tour event last week, which I think is his 3rd win in just over 2 years and barrring injury looks destined for a great career.

Cheers get on.

Had to google what sport this was, never mind who he was.

Brilliant Bhullar sets his sights on Avantha Masters

New Delhi, Feb 8 : Young Indian golfer Gaganjeet Bhullar is all set to match strides with the best in world golf after making an excellent start to the new season.

 

Bhullar, the latest star on Indian golf scene, is now setting his sights on the prestigious Asian Tour Order of Merit crown, as he mounts a challenge at the Avantha Masters this week.

The 21-year-old triumphed at the season-opening Asian Tour International in Bangkok Sunday, coming from six shots behind to win with a closing 64 and said his confidence was now sky high.

On Avantha Masters, Bhullar said: "I'm sure my confidence will go a long way. I'm looking forward to next week. It's a big event (Avantha Masters). I love the DLF as I've won there twice. Going back playing in front of the home crowd will give me a great sense of achievement."

Bhullar, one of the first-time winners on Aircel PGTI Indian Tour, has now won seven times in just about a year - five times in India and twice outside. He is only the fifth Indian to win more than once on Asian Tour since it was formed in 1995.

The Asian Tour heads to India for this week's Euro 1.5 million (approximately USD 2.1 million) Avantha Masters which is tri-sanctioned between the Asian Tour, European Tour and Professional Golf Tour of India (PGTI). The event starts at the DLF Golf and Country Club Thursday.

India has produced three Order of Merit champions with pride of place going to Jeev Milkha Singh, who has won the accolade twice, Arjun Atwal and Jyoti Randhawa. All three are playing at the Avantha Masters this week.

Bhullar sits on top of the first Order of Merit for 2010 after bagging USD 47,550 for his win in Bangkok.

"I'll try to win the Order of Merit this year. This win has put me in a good frame of mind but I'll need to win the big events which will be the goal for the rest of the year," he said.

Bhullar underscored his immense talent at the Suwan Golf and Country Club to produce a scintillating course record on the last day. His four-day total of 11-under-par 277 was a stroke better than runner-up Hwang Inn-choon of South Korea.

"I'm glad and I'm lucky that it came my way. Starting the day, I thought Kiradech was going to win as he's a great talent and a good ball striker. I guess I'm lucky the golfing gods were with me," said the youngster from Kapurthala.

"I feel amazing. I have no words to describe, I'm totally speechless. When I woke up on Sunday morning, I just wanted to shoot a good number. I never ever thought I am going to shoot a 64 and win by one. It's like a dream coming true. My first event of the year and winning at the start of the year will give me a lot of confidence."

Bhullar, an avid internet surfer, added: "Saturday night, I was surfing the web and I clicked on asiantour.com and they had a poll 'Who do you think will win the Asian Tour International' and my name was there. I clicked on my name and I had the highest votes. I told myself that it was a bit of a disappointment that I wouldn't win as I had so many votes. But it shows that anything can happen in golf."

Hwang, who claimed USUSD 32,550 for finishing second, lies one spot below Bhullar on the Order of Merit while Japanese Tetsuji Hiratsuka is in third on USD 18,300. Kiradech and Jbe Kruger of South Africa share fourth place on USD 13,545.

+1

I like Maybin's chances here too, managed to snaffle some 7/1 in the top 5 market on BF

Tip just won the Pro-Am (http://www.zimbio.com/Gaganjeet+Bhullar/articles/DIvDQ4GNkpj/Bhullar+wins+Pro+hopes+continue+form+main) as well

I couldn't resist an ew dabble on David Howell at what seems to me like a huge 150/1 in this field.

ok i am on camel and phils picks

Am board and hoping to scoop from Paddy' @ 25/1

Cheers Keith

I wake up and gp straight to europeantour.com for a score update..

He was on -4 after 11 :D. luvly jubbly.

Immediately double bogies the 12th. :(

I'm going back to bed....

im on with paddys too @ 25/1

69. Pretty good, especially as none of the well fancied players scored any better than him.

I had a bit at 27 yesterday and he's down to 18 on betfair now so is it time to lay him?

-2 for Maybin in the easier morning conditions  was a bit disappointing but the -3 from Bhullar in the afternoon was a good round that included a dble bogey. Hopefully the conditions 2morrow morning will be good and Bhuller can kick on. The guy in front has a history of shooting low rounds now and again and then falling away when the pressure is on but that is usually in a higher class than this but he is deffo in the 'nutcase' category when things start to go wrong so hopefully he wont kick on when he plays in the afternoon 2morrow.

 :hello:

Marcell Siem -  sure feels good to have a man against the forum pick.

Nutcase is a bit harsh.

hi Chris,

Sorry I didnt see you were on Siem, nice pick  and if ours dont win I hope yours does.

Waaaaay to early.

Top picking with Siem Chris but if he's not quite a "nutcase" he's close imo.

I have him in the same bracket as "Larry the larrap" Larrazabal, greatly talented but equally unpredictable.

I have added Robert Jan Derksen to the portfolio, got a morning tee time in the 2nd round so hopefully he can go well.

+2 so far, what a bellend he is!

Ah just outside the cut line...

Fuck a duck.

Good luck with Siem, Chris.

come on Sir Lowry.

Gaganjeet Bhullar    25/1

S Lowry     33/1     

G Maybin     25/1

Those were my bets, but not kept up with it.  Who's doing what and are any of them still in?   

Hi Laxie,

the leaders are on -10  and Lowry is in the clubhouse at -7 so he in a good spot, Maybin has just birdied the last hole to get to -5, ive just bet him again ew at 66/1 so both of them are doing ok.Bhuller played poorly today and looks to have missed the cut.
 

oops

Is the point of backing someone at 25/1 to trade out at 18/1?

You might as well just lump on Man Utd at home to Pompey at 1/8 instead.

I'm not a regular gambler and I bow to those that are - I make small bets when the fancy takes me and don't trade much, but I'm trying to learn more about how betfair works. On this one I saw the first round scores and the fall in odds meant that I could lay my original bet and take a free punt on the win, surely that's better than backing anybody at 1/8?

If he had shot the 76 in the first round instead of the second you would not have been able to trade out at all.

True you could have taken a small profit after the first round, but imo that isn't really the point of backing someone at a big price to win a golf tournament.

Got them all e/w as the odds were so crazy, it just seemed to make sense to me at the time.  2 out of 3 into the next round isn't too bad then...cheers Lads!

no more play today coz of bad weather Laxie, your guys are in decent positions on a very crowded leaderboard.

i know nothing about betting

Hows this bhuller fella getting on?

sigh, anyone else, keep them coming.

odds on not to make a mistake over the weekend.

he shot 4 over par today to miss the cut.

Sicker than a seaside donkey on bank holiday Monday when rides are 10p a go.

Unlucky Bobby

how about this for a finish Chris,

This weeks Aussie comp

Alistair Presnell was fav on that tour last week and played ok, this week he has shot a 12 under 60 in the last round to get up and win by one shot.

Thats incred

like a ridic score you get playing tiger woods golf on the xbox....

talking of amazing comebakcs, David Duval is one behind in the US golf, with everything that guy has been thru it would be brilliant if he could win again. Live on Sky now if anyone wants to watch

Shoots a 60 and is only -2 on par 5's.

You would expect -5 or -6 on par 5's to make a 60.

deffo Keith, the Seniors event was incred too. Fred Couples led by 2 going into the last round, shot 8 under for the last round and had to birdie the 17th to win by one after Tommy Armour shot an 11 under 61 in the last round.

Plz don't tilt me anymore

Sorry mate, was it bad?
