Yes.
Dustin, Day, Oosthuzen, Holmes, Smith, Lowry, Snedeker, Romero, Stenson, Finau, Luiten, Reed, Schwartzel, Kucher, Levy......
In fact, I have only backed Speith, Grace, Matsuyama, Rose, Walker, Furyk, Els (Top 20), Putnam (Top 20). Didn't back any of the other 144 players except I covered all my bets by backing Tiger Woods to miss the cut.
I obviously do best if Speith wins because I have far more on him than the others. Clearly I only have live bets on Speith, Grace & possibly Els for a Top 20 spot. I usually only average three bets per event but this event has been more fascinating than most & am pleased that seven of the current Top Eight are players that I have backed in recent weeks. Could see Lowry shooting par tonight and finishing within a shot or two of winning.
Maybe that's another decent bet - 33/1 each way first three.

They're from M&S
this is precisely why I don't gamble

Ok, added Lowry & Oosterhuizen each way at 33/1 & 22/1.
These two are perfect for the course. Lowry hasn't shot over par in three rounds and Oosty has shot 66 & 66 in his last two rounds. More importantly, they both love this course. Lowry was brought up on the links courses of Ireland and Oosty won The Open last time it was held at St Andrews, probably the course most like this one in the UK.
I think -3 could well win this as the sun makes it run faster and both these guys could be the ones to hang in there.

If Rory had sunk some of his putts yesterday he would be in with a shout of winning this one. He is -2 today but I think has left it too late. Still, any player who can post a clubhouse sub-par score could put pressure on the leaders.
Rory now -3 after 8, is the charge on??
RE: The gambling/betting thread - consilio - 21-06-2015
He's flying. Looks back on top form
RE: The gambling/betting thread - St Charles Owl - 21-06-2015
Rory now -4 for the day and evens for the tournament.
RE: The gambling/betting thread - madsteve - 21-06-2015
Bet365 still offering 50/1 for McIlroy 1/5 for three places. 10/1 for top three is decent.
RE: The gambling/betting thread - St Charles Owl - 22-06-2015
Two bogeys on the last few holes killed his round. Going down to the wire with three guys joint leaders!!
