Coverage in the UK is shocking.  BBC have this and the only time you can watch it is from 9pm till midnight tonight!!  What's that all about?  If it were on Sky Sports, it would be on from start to finish.

Bad form BBC.  I appreciate there are other things to show but come on, 3 hours a day from the first major of the season.....

I believe that the folks at Augusta only permit this time window, they are a strange bunch of people.  It was only a few years ago that they allowed the front 9 to be shown on the final day.  This is why the TV coverage no matter where you are in the world is restricted to what we see.

He's right Silo, I too used to blame it on the Beeb, but it's the Southern gentry who run Augusta who are responsible.

Rocco Mediate is available at 60.0 on BF at the moment.  I dont think he'll win but at that price, its a buy and lay off.  Was 75 a moment ago (when I got on) and is going down - worth a look - best odds anywhere for 2nd place leader in the Masters I would think.

Also Tiger is probably the best odds he is ever going to be at 6.8.  Should he not drop today, he wont win anyway imo but he has had an average first round before and come back and dominated so is worth a punt imho.

I've gone for Vijay on an each way bet. Wish I had a good reason for backing him, but I don't.  Cheesy

Come on Vijay

going to be very windy this afternoon apparently and the afternoon tee times (Vijay, Tiger) are going to have it hard going.

I like it a lot better than Aunty's "coverage".

It's all golf and no Alliss or Ryder  Roll Eyes

C'mon Ernie and Howell !

I'm liking my 80s on Campbell at the minute!!  Cheesy

Could do with young L.Donald to use the force and jump up the board.

I've gone for Chad Campbell @ 80s.  IMO this is a stand out price.  He had a couple of good results this year.  He is also a Yank, and his victories are predominantly on US courses (Bob Hope Classic earlier this year - beat Mickleson).

Also went for a small (patriotic) each way on Donald.  Purely for the fact of the amount of coverage he'll be recieving!!

Aside from the betting it promises to be a belting tournament.  I love the course, it just looks so bloody pristine.  A far cry for my local municipal!!   Cheesy

Good luck all


ayyyyyyyyyyyyyrrrrrrrrrr. good luck sir.

I've bailed out of Ernie @ 11.5 having backed him @14, he just doesn't look comfortable to me.

Not only that but Phil M was outdriving him by 30 yards every hole !

This probably makes Ernie a certainty the way my form has been lately  Roll Eyes
