Darren's Sports Bets 2019

[darren83]

BigG see Scottie Scheffler 2nd round today got a 4 shot lead but some late starters out now hope still in lead

[BigG]

That was some round Scheffler had Darren, 62 was just outstanding
He’s just holding onto that lead, but Niemann is having a blinder
too and is only 1 behind your man with 7 to go. Even if he does get
caught he’s going to be bang there for the last 2 days. Best of luck
mate

[raymo61]

Looks like we are cheering Scottie or Nate in the US guys
Your others might be too far back Darren unless they have a round like Chappell did the other day!!

Don’t seem to have an interest in Holland which is unusual for us!!

If my guy can’t win I will be cheering Scottie for you Darren

[raymo61]

Sorry Graham I didn’t notice Sung is not far off the places too!! Good Luck with him too

[BigG]

Cheers Raymo, it’s unlikely that Sung is near enough to win it, unless, like you say,
he fires in a Chappell like round, but he does have a realistic shout at the E/W. You
on the other hand have a cracking chance with Lashley just 2 off the pace as does Darren
with Scheffler just 1 back of you. I could be wrong, and Niemann has been playing near
flawless golf, but he only turned pro last year and has yet to win. Famous last words,
but I expect the pressure to get to him and I don’t think he will win.

Yes it seems our excursion to Amsterdam is going to be fruitless and I had high hopes
after Green was just 1 back in 2nd after the 1st round. At least he got me the E/W part
of my 1st round bet. It looks like Garcia is the man to beat, I can never seem to catch
him right and he has had some shocking final rounds in his time, but I’m not interested
in him at even money. I nearly stuck on Matt Wallace at the start, and although he’s 4
off the lead, and just to have a little interest in the final round, I’m going to have a
bit on him at 14s.

Good luck this evening guys

[raymo61]

I have had a few quid each way on Matt Southgate Graham at 28/1 for something to watch!!
Good luck with Wallace

Bets on tennis this week 4 events

KAREN KHACHANOV 5/1 ST Petersberg open

Have to be doubts over Medvedev not only 5 sets in us open final but all matches play on us hardcourt season.And another big hitter from Russia can deliver the goods.KK has won indoors won masters 1000 event in Paris everything points to winning here draw kind Coric not been in form.He only player to worry about in half.

LUCAS POUILE 10/1 ATP Mosile open

French players normally win the events here and another one can oblige here in a soft quarter compare to who could get in the semi finals here Struff,Tsonga,Humbert Balashavi likely one of those in last 4 but matches they play could be tired by then make it easier for Lucas.

NAOMI OSAKA 4/1 WTA Pan pacfic open

This event is in Osaka so right place for her get back on form has changed coaches again but her draw is kind Muguruza and out of form Stephens big names for her but every chance may only play one of them so expect her bounce back.

KAROLINA MUCHOVA 9/1 WTA Korea open

She been under the radar but is improving a lot while a chance could get Ostapenko early on here she improving at a rate of knots can beat her if she does not fear any rivals here

Happy with O’Sullivan a 4/1 winner in snooker

While Scheffler look like best hope in golf

[darren83]

No luck at weekend but hope changes in golf start off with Sandersons farms

CAMERON CHAMP 66/1

Was same price last year when he broke maiden tag in style if you said been 66/1 to defend title a year ago they took you to funny farm.But his form dropped in the new year got a injury at Players championship.But now back he is no reason to suggest why a bold bid from him

BYEOUNG HUN AN 25/1

This guy keeps getting close to breaking duck but might be here could do it though was 47th at Greenbrier last week he did ok during 2rounds but fell away at weekend this not a strong field.And he got the class make a impact here.

SAM BURNS 100/1

Was 3rd here last year behind Champ while last 2events been MC MC He will come here thinking how well he did last year and expect him to build on course form from last year to maybe even go further this time

ROBBY SHELTON 100/1

It should be noted last 5winners of event were maidens come from Korn ferry tour.And while Scottie Scheffler was in the plans i axed him.And for me Shelton a 2time winner on korn ferry tour and play well last week lead after round one last week is very good on par fives something Champ was last year and feel he could breakout like Champ.

MICHAEL GLIGAC 750/1

Biggest price i ever put up but worth a few beans on him some reason players from Canada go well here Corey Conners 2nd last year a MC last week at Greenbreir and for me he worth taking a chance on

[darren83]

Bets for BMW PGA

MATTHEW FITZPATRICK 28/1

Been close this year been 2nd 4 times was unlucky as could of won at 2 times there he likes playing in UK has won at Wobun while form here has a improving look to it as well and think he do it

JON RAHM 11/1

Sure some say it strange have him as next best but reason he is because a feeling course not suit him but if he does click here then will be right up form in events not major or WGC events on European tour strong with 4wins won in Dubai 2time irish open winner so worth a bet here

HAITONG LI 70/1

Not got the best figures here but no reason why not take to course here been 3rd in a open so know adapt well to links events could be a bit rusty but well worth taking a chance on him shown in the past can handle big stage like this to.

LEE WESTWOOD 80/1

Loves Wentworth since the changes to course was 14th and 27th has been playing ok this year should not forget was 4th in the open.And coming to a venue which he knows well has to be of intrest here

MARCUS KINHULT 125/1

Won british masters a player always worth following when it comes to links events where we see best form by him.Was 12th here last year and come on leaps and bounds since then a tempting bet at 3figures well worth taking.

C Champ M Fitzpatrick win double but also Champ and Rahm to

Good luck guys

STONE OF DESTNIY 33/1
STAXTON 33/1

Ayr gold cup bets

And PONDUS 11/4 Dubai duty free legacy cup

[BigG]

BMW PGA

Tommy Fleetwood 20/1 (30/1 1st round leader market)

He looked like he might have the Open within his grasp this year, only to blow any
chance he had with a poor final round 74. I thought there might be a bit of a lull after
that, but he showed how mentally tough he is with a T4 in the St Jude next time out.
Another top 10 last time out at the European Masters gives him every chance here. Some
players don’t take to this format with celebs thrown in, but Fleetwood has the perfect
mental makeup, he’s not the Tiger Woods sort. I don’t think he will be far away.

Matt Wallace 28/1 (45/1, boosted from 40s PP, 1st round leader market)

I’ve been waiting for Wallace to burst into life this year, and after 3 wins and numerous
top 10s last year he has been a little disappointing. He looked like he was back on song
last week where after a poor 1st round 75 in the KLM he charged through the field to finish
3rd. I’m maybe being a bit hard on him as he has had 5 top 5 finishes this year, but I think
last week could be the turning point for his 1st win this year.

Gavin Green 125/1 (80/1 1st round leader market)

If I’m honest, I’m chancing him more for the 1st round leader market. He can blow a course
away with his game and score really low. In his last 7 tournaments, his worst opening round is
a 67. Problem is that he has the habit of throwing in a bad round or the odd tripple bogey
which lets him down over 72 holes. If he can calm his game down a bit, and find some consistency,
he might just have a chance in the outright market too.

I’ll be keeping an eye on Jon Rahm. He’s in the afternoon starters, and if the early birds score
low there’s a chance he might be bigger than the 11/1 he is at present before he hits a ball. If
he drifts slightly I’ll have a go, he could definitely run away with this but I think his price
is a little cramped at the moment.

I’ll stick on a couple in the Sanderson Farms a bit later today.

[raymo61]

Good Luck Guys
And I have backed two in the Ayr Gold Cup Urban Beat 20/1 and Air Raid 25/1 but it looks like decent ground is likely and I am not sure that will suit my two

[darren83]

Good luck Raymo i thought i posted my horsey bets in my tips thread instead put them here

Done ok last week with NORWAY 10/1 Star Catcher 3/1 ante post bets i got

[raymo61]

WELL DONE DARREN
As you know I am a horses man first so appreciate your winners

[BigG]

Sanderson Farms

Sung-jae Im 20/1 (40/1 1st round leader market)

He’s been competing well in much stronger fields than this, personally I
would have him as favourite here. Best priced 18/1 but a nice boost from
Paddy Power has him at 20/1 outright and boosted (for some of my bet)to
40/1 from 33/1 in the 1st round betting. For a 21 year old he is showing
some level of consistency all year and continued with a decent T19 in the
Greenbrier last time out. He has a major chance here.

Cameron Smith 33/1 (40/1 1st round leader market)

I’ve been a fan for some time now, and although he would have you pulling
out your hair at times he has the game to win anywhere. He did well enough
last time out in the Greebrier with a T24. He showed how good he can be when
he threw in a sizzling 64 in the 2nd round. If he is in the mood, he could stroll
away with this, it just depends which Cameron Smith turns up

I’m sticking with the 2 at this stage, it’s not the best turn out so there could
be a surprise from out of the pack. I’ll wait til the cut to see how the lie of
the land is and perhaps have another go. Good luck this week guys, not a lot doing
last week, just Raymo with a nice e/w with Lashley and my 1st round e/w with Gavin
Green. I think our report cards might have read “could do better”. Hopefully this
is the week

As we seem to be putting our Ayr Gold Cup picks up here this week, my 2 are Summerghand
at 12/1 and Laugh A Minute at 25s.

Well done Darren with Norway and Star catcher

[raymo61]

Good start from Matty Graham

[BigG]

Cheers Raymo, I hope 7 under is good enough to hang onto the outright
lead, he would be a very welcome 45/1 winner. There are a lot of players
out there with most of their rounds to go. Time to sweat it out
