    Bets for Farmers insurance open

    JON RAHM 8/1

    When you look at history of event full of multi time winners Tiger 6 wins Snedecker and Day with 2wins while Rahm won it once can add another win here where he broke his duck.While recent event not play well can forgive him for that was married and been practice lot more be much sharper here.

    MATTHEW WOLFF 70/1

    Rahm proved that you can win here on debut and the Wolff could add a 2nd title since won 3M open not had a top ten finish but did play well at Zozo and opening round at Sentry full of promise to.This big hitting star can cause issues for big names at weekend.

    EMILLIANO GRILLO 80/1

    Has won at Torey pines when was 16 and has talked about this course being one of faves to come to and recent form been ok to as a pro was 12th here and could do even better.

    HARRIS ENGLISH 90/1

    Things are now turning around for him after his bad form last few years was 48th last week but that down to a 74 on final day he play well otherwise with best form figures here are 2,8 14 there every chance a return here can get him back in touch.

    MAVERICK MC NEALEY 200/1

    Top Amatuer and i feel he will have a breakout year as a pro this year was 29th here on debut 2years ago which a fine showing by him and improved more as a player since and at odds could go well.

    Good luck guys this weekend

    By the way I had a nice couple of Christmas pressies from the in laws. They got me a couple of shares in two syndicate horses called MY FRIEND STAN and JABOTICABA .

    I know syndicates don’t make you rich but I will follow them with interest and maybe o and see them race at some time this year :good: :good:

    Very bad luck guys with Fitzy guys, I really thought he would pull it off. Westwood has had
    one win since 2014 before this and has been in contention plenty times. I thought he would
    fold as he has done but trust him to see this one out :wacko:

    That sounds like a geat present Raymo, both look decent sorts, in particular Jaboticaba who
    has been chapping on the door recently. I’ll keep an eye out to see how they do, and get my
    binoculars out to see if I can spot you in the winners enclosure :good:

    I’ll get my bets in later tonight or tomorrow morning.

    It’s really late and I’ve just got my bets on for the Dubai Desert Classic with
    10 minutes to go. I’ll just list them as my eyelids are like lead.

    Louis Oosthuizen 12/1 (28/1 1st round leader market)

    Guido Migliozzi 150/1 (100/1 1st round leader market)

    Christiaan Bezuidenhout 200/1 (100/1 1st round leader market)

    Farmers Insurance Open

    Patrick reed 28/1 (25/1 1st round leader market North Course)

    He didn’t take to the conditions last week in Hawaii, but he wasn’t alone there and
    he missed the cut. Take that away and his last 4 starts read a lot better…..T8, 3rd,
    1st and T2. If he hasn’t lost his game after the Sony Open then he has every chance
    that he will be in contention come sunday.

    Sungjae Im 30/1 (28/1 1st round leader market North Course)

    He’s a bit of a favourite of mine and hasn’t disappointed despite not getting his head
    in front. In his last 7 starts he’s had 3 top 10s and had some terrific low rounds. He
    surely will land a tournament sooner than later.

    Joaquin Niemann 50/1 (33/1 1st round leader market North Course)

    He did well in the Sentry 3 weeks back finishing T5, but struggled a bit in the Sony Open
    the week after. Conditions were tough there and I think he will do better here. He already
    has a win on the tour at the Greenbrier and at 21 can only improve.

    Sebastian Munoz 125/1 (50/1 1st round leader market North Course)

    I’ve bumped him into my choices fairly regular of late, and with good reason. He looks
    a really good golfer and was just outside the top 20 last week (21st) in the The American
    Express. T17 in the Sentry and 3rd on his own in the RSM Classic the time before. I think
    he’s well overpriced with Skybet 8 places.

    That’s me done this week, best of luck guys, last week was a disappointment all round.
    Darren, If my memory serves me I had a few quid on Adam Scott in the Open back in 2012.
    I can’t remember exactly how far ahead he was at the start of his last round, but I
    remember he had 4 holes to play and was 5 clear at that time. He bogied the last 4 holes
    and Els had enough birdies to win by 1. That was a bit sore :-(

    Remember that mate that Els win how Scotty blow it just madness

    Our pal Pieters in lead but none of us 3 on him hope not win it

    Rahm just got a early birdie after 2holes so hope can keep it going with other bets

    What are Bet365 thinking of???. It’s 11.21pm, Patrick Reed has birdied 3 of the last 5 holes to
    get to 6 under in the clubhouse, 3 off the lead with 2 rounds to go and they have him at 50/1 :unsure:
    He’s as low as 14s, generally between 16 and 20 elsewhere. They have had him at that price for
    the last hour. I’ve already bet him, but I’ve just filled my boots. If he’s still 50s when you
    read this Darren or Raymo, that’s got to be worth a bet :good:

    They have finally woken up to the Reed odds situation and cut him to 25/1, even though he’s
    now 4 shots off the lead. Someone dozed of for an hour me thinks. I wonder how many punters
    clocked it. If he does win I reckon someone will be looking for a new job come Monday :whistle:

    Halfway report……..

    looking good for Raymo with Ryan Palmer 2 clear of the field going into the 3rd round.
    45/1 looks very tasty now Raymo considering he’s 9/2 fav :good: Darren your man Rahm
    is tucked in behind them at 5 under, I’d expect a move for him on moving day. Patrick
    Reed is one of my 4, and he’s not too far away at 6 under. I don’t know if you guys
    were on last night when I typed up balls up by Bet365 with Reed’s price. They had him
    at 66 and 50/1 before his late 3 birdies. For whatever reason they didn’t react to it
    at all and he was still 50/1 when he was in the clubhouse at 6 under, 3 off the lead.
    I waded into that and he’s 16/1 this morning with the only change being that he’s 4
    behind the leader, when he was 3 behind when I backed him.

    I was pig sick with Sungjae Im on the 1st round. He birdied the 17th to be joint leader
    (North Course). I had him at 28/1 and a par would have got me £150, a birdie £300. Sod’s
    Law struck again and he bogied it :wacko: I was too greedy as I had him on the nose,
    so not a bean back. He’s fallen back to 4 under afetr last night.

    We’re all still bang in there in the Dubai Desert Classic. They are off and running and
    at this time darren and Raymo you guys are both a couple off the lead at 9 under in 2nd
    behind Ashun Wu. Darren with Kitayama and Perez and Raymo with Lewis. I’m hanging onto
    your shirttails with DeChambeau just 2 back on 7 under. I was really hoping Christiaan
    Bezuidenhout would hang in there, he was 2 under for his round after the front 9 and at
    7 under but he’s dropped back with a couple of bogies and finished at 5 under. At 200/1
    I was hopeful he would hang onto a place, I think he’s maybe blown it unless he gets off
    to a quich start tomorrow.

    Surely we can get something back from this week, we’ve gotta have a big shout :good:

    Hi Darren I dont think there’s any way they couldn’t pay out. They didn’t change his price to 25/1
    until at least 10 minutes after I layed my bet. They were offering the price in running, it’s not like it
    was a typographical error, such as putting an extra 0 by mistake onto a price, making it 500/1
    when it was obviously 50/1. They were just late in changing their price, and that’s down to them.

    I don’t know how much of this I can watch Raymo, Bezuidenhout just birdied the 13th to
    get to 1 off the lead but as I’m typing this Wu has just birdied the 7th to go 2 clear
    again. I’ve got 15 quid e/w on him at 200/1 and I’d have bitten your hand off for a place
    before they started, but maybe, just maybe he has a shot at this. Assuming the position
    behind the sofa :wacko:
