Casey and Park looking good going into the weekend Happy!

I took a 2 dollar multi (yes, 2 dollars but the odds are satisfying) for fun on those 2. However, my cash out at the moment is the unchanged $1.90. You would think they could tempt me with $2.40 or something worthwhile to think about lol.....

Breakdown for this week (pretty much the formula I follow).

Simpson (high invest)

Reed,Snedeker ,Straka and An (low invest)

Ko and Jutanugarn ( high)

C Hull (low)

Long way to go yet!

How did you finish up? Did a top 5 or 10 result get you something back?

Ko will be rueing that double bogey in the first round(as I am)and Simpson couldn't quite get  over the line,which would have been the best collect all round!

This has been an interesting little experiment  so far ( betting wise it hasn't really excited me).

Here's the breakdown after 5 weeks of profit or loss on investment. 

Week 1    +116%   Week 2  -23%  Week  3 +14%  Week 4  +539%   Week 5  +37%

If you are up that much you must be happy?

Why hasn't it excited you?

Yes happy to be in profit,but I have never really been into  sports bets.I have always preferred the geegees and over the last 15 years have been selective.Since Royal Ascot I've had 3 bets with 2 of these being follow ons from R A!I mainly have a flutter to cover horse expenses if I have any in work and to pay for holidays.

I may give the golf a couple more weeks as I'm sure Simpson can land one pretty soon.The other side of the story in this experiment is that if you are not on a winner in the first two or three weeks,then you are always playing  catch up!?

You must be good unless a holiday to you is a tent in the local camping ground ?

Golf betting is fickle. I could not imagine doing it to make money but it is fun for me.

?Nothing wrong with a  bit of camping Happy!!Maybe I should have  worded that "it helps"with holidays. I'm lucky  enough to be able to fly 3/4 hours and be anywhere in Europe or Scandinavia at a very reasonable price. I'm also not a 2 ew investor ?

Let's see if we can find a golf winner this week.

All the best

Ladies Scottish  Open

Jeogeun Lee (6) and Mingee Lee  (medium)

C Boutier -  S H Oh -  H Green  (low)

holy shit the tournament has already started.

I would go with Anna Nordqvist (even after 2, so I am not cheating) I think she showed form at the end of last week. I don't really follow here as a player but it wouldn't surprise me.

I don't like backing players who competed at the business end in a major the previous week as I feel they are shot mentally.

Good luck Mooncoin.

Could have selected 20 players out of this lot!Its going to be a hot tournament as only the top 70 quailify for next week!

Being so even,I've gone with the following 

Koepka,Simpson and Rahm(mid)

Horschel,Woodland and Finau (value)

 

Couldn't  resist  a little one on Straka also for the 3rd or 4th week  running ?

Banking on Rahm in the last round....

How do you usually cope with a fiery Spanish temperament?

?Very talanted golfer who hopefully keeps a lid on it for one more round!

I have been selecting Reed the last couple of weeks ,but like I said earlier you can't take them!!Hope the "bogey man" catches up with him.

Lee6 only one shot off the pace in Scotland
