Yay finally a golf course I've played at. The best shot I ever hit came on the 8th hole, over the gorge and 10 feet away with a 2-iron. I can still see the arrow I hit in my mind. I think I 3-putted for bogey.

nice!
Gwiz where you at?
Only thing I have placed so far is a prop that tiger and phil WONT win the open. I took the field.
Heres some first round matchup I like
Phil -125 over Tiger. I will fade Tiger until he can hit the fairways with his driver. He is spraying that thing all over the place. Phil on the other hand has never looked better on the tee. He hits the ball a mile and with his short game he has a legit chance to eagle every par5.
Rory McIlroy +100 over Luke Donald. Not sure why Luke is favored here, pretty much just taking the value with Rory. Rory's putter looked great at St. Jude.
Davis Love III -125 over Justin Leonard. I have faded Justin just as much as any other golfer this year. Hes terrible. I watched him at St Jude last week and the wheels have fallen off. He just seemed uninterested and was leaving himself like 50 feet on the green EVERY time.
Lee Westwood -150 over Rory McIlroy. I expect rory to have a good first round. But I expect Lee to come out firing like usual. Lee is a great bet in the first 2 round but never bet him after that.
KJ Choi -105 over over Tim Clark....Tim Clark got his first PGA win at the Players championship. The guy can golf but KJ looked absolutely awful at the memorial. KJ had like 2 triples. Thats not KJ, hes a really smart methodical golfer and I expect him to come out all business. I think KJ can easily stay in front of Tim Clark in the first round.

Keep in mind that Tiger doesn't need to hit driver very often. None of these players actually NEED to hit driver at 1, 3, 4, 6, 8, 11, 14, 15 or 16.

Its not that he cant hit a drive its that when he misses he misses big. Phils driver has been out of control. I will fade Tiger until he shows me something.

Course has been lengthened on a few holes. It all depends on the rough and the weather on what kind of scores these guys shoot

I hope it's better than last year when Glover sort of backed into the win at Bethpage Black when he was in the correct flight the first 2 rounds which had all sorts of weather problems.

The lines going into Saturday are the most fun to bet. There is some great value on the 5-10th place guys to win. I'm steering clear of the big name bets in this one. Accurate drives and being able to land long irons softly will be the key in this one.

KJ is very under rated. Still think Big Phil will bring it home.
