Spot the ‘greensider’ competition

Spot the ‘greensider’ competition

Nipped up the road to Wentworth last Sunday for the BMW PGA Championships.

I reckon you have your next golf star laid out in front of you in the form of Matteo Manassero. Only 20, he is playing beyond his years already and I reckon he could have an impact in a major sooner rather than later. He has four tour wins now and he is already being backed in for both Open championships. One to watch.

I went …

BMW PGA – Wentworth – The Cut

BMW PGA – Wentworth – The Cut

List of positive movers at the cut, returns to £10 stakes.  The really bad weather on Thursday and Friday put paid to a host of contenders chances so this has been very beneficial for people further down the field at the start.

I’m busy on other sports today but will be heading over to Wentworth for …

US PGA – The cut

Now that’s more like it!

But on day two a number of players came in from the cold to put in some good rounds and still themselves near the top of the leaderboard and much shorter in odds. We have the weather to thank, almost an inch of rain fell overnight and strong winds blowing in from the sea made the course incredibly tough. So …

US PGA Golf

I’m currently working a few positions into this market.

I like the US tournaments because you can benefit from decent liquidity in the run up to the start without having to get up a ridiculous O’clock in the morning.

No major movers at the moment, Lee Westwood has drifted a bit. Rory McIlroy looks a little short to me. OK he has an incentive to win, but his form has been a little erratic since his first major. It’s not …
