Phoenix Open
An open betting event here with Bubba top of the market at 11/1 with Fowler, Snedeker, Koepka & Matsuyama next in line. Not really getting a big feel for this event so a few small bets, I think.
JB Holmes 28/1
Should be suited by the course with his big drives. Has won here twice before and is in form with a very creditable Tied 6th last week.
Kevin Na 33/1
Four Top Five finishes on this course plus four top three finishes in his last six starts mark Na out as a clear contender here.
Ryan Palmer 33/1
Tied second here last year. A big hitter, ideally suited by this course appears to coming into form.
Martin Laird 66/1
A Scottsdale resident now so playing at home. Previously 3rd & 5th here on a course ideally suited for him. He was 8th last week so is in form. He is also first on the tee tonight so should get the best of conditions.
Did FRL bets on Pieters, RCB & Noren in Dubai and woke up to RCB & Noren already in the Top Ten after bright starts. Pieters opening nine killed him.

Had Koepka, Streelman & Finau on my long list for this week & all should be close in the next few weeks.

Dubai Desert Classic (Day One)
What a good day for our guys today with the outright leader and tied second after Day One. Also picked up a 66/1 First Round Leader winning bet plus an 80% FRL place at 40/1 so in profit before the real action starts.
Thorbjorn Olesen 40/1 Par - Tied 64th
Rafa Carera Bello 35/1 -5 Tied 2nd
Thomas Pieters 35/1 +4 Tied 118th
Stephen Gallacher 70/1 -2 Tied 29th
Alex Noren 75/1 -6 FIRST
A long way to go and four of our five had the better weather today with only Gallacher due to get it tomorrow. Having said that, the wind wasn't that extreme. Rory is looking ominous on -4 without really getting out of first gear and there won't be many that finish in front of him this week.

Phoenix Open (Day One)
Fowler, Lowry & Matsuyama lead the way on -6 after a pretty open Day One. A mixed day for our guys who all have a bit of ground to make up on the leaders. There are quite a few other bigger names close behind (Lee, Koepka, Snedeker) so it will take some winning. They expect a crowd of over 500k on Sunday so should be one hell of an atmosphere.
JB Holmes 28/1 +2 Tied 101st
Kevin Na 33/1 -3 Tied 11th
Ryan Palmer 33/1 -1 Tied 47th
Martin Laird 66/1 -2 Tied 31st

Bradley got a two shot penalty for carrying an extra club so would have been -5 without the penalty.

Dubai Desert Classic (Day Two)
Another good day with two of our players right in the mix, first & fifth. RCB has been the consistent player of the first two days and Olesen hit the best round of the tournament so far with a 64 today. Could be a big weekend.
