Get in the Hole! (SEP 22nd - 25th)

Tour Championship

Main pick is Nick Watney, he had great final round yesterday and finished T4th in Tour Championship last year.

Geoff Ogilvy is my other pick. Seems to be finding some decent form. 3rd yesterday and a decent outing in this last year stands him in good stead.

Austrian Open

Very poor quality of field this week. Could be anyone's this.

Damian McGrane is my main pick here, he came 6th here last year and has had asome decent results last few months.

Finally for me its Danny Willett(*). He's largely had a poor year or so, but he has started showing signs that he's on the way back up. He came 3rd here last year and no reason he cant do well again considering the poor strength of the field.

(*) this may be subject to change, depending on what price he is, because they havent been published yet.

I will be adding e/w doubles again, il edit these into my post later.

Good luck!

EDIT, It appears Danny Willett isn't playing, so i dont think he'll win in that case :P.

Iv now gone for another underachiever who has shown some signs of coming good again. It's Oliver Wilson. Hopefully he'll shine in this weak field.

    Thing is these players aren't in good form at all. Im really confident Damian McGrane will do well, but i admit Oliver Wilson is a huge gamble.

    Good luck if ur having a go.

    Have put £10 e/w on gary boyd being top Englishman @ 9/2.

    Have covered it e/w because if he doesn't win i think its unlikely he won't be in the top four, he's easily the stand out player when compared to other Englishmen in the field.

    Plus 9/2 are good odds when compared to what other sites are offering.

    Be lucky.

    Chez Reavie      £ 1 E/w   Playing well and just need to hold it together.

    Just typical.
    Given up on Jason Day then he decides to turn up and play a decent 36 holes.
    Got to stick a £ 5er on him at 7-1 or i will kick myself when he wins by 3 HAHA.

    Bit annoying Joost bogying the last or he was in a play-off (not to mention a poor 3rd day or he would of won comfortably).

    Luke Donald still in with a shout with a little help from the top 2. I also placed a bet on Luiten top 5 and Donald to win as a double, so still have that to look for.

    Forgotten how to work the odds out again... 10/3 and 6/1 ??
