question from today GOLF Phoenix Open

[trytrytry]

books like 5 dimes had head to head matchups on many golfers

one golfer

Horschel was a bit -190 or -200 favorite over somebody?

anyone recall who, or can you find it

6 points for helping

(might have been Rory but I cant recall for sure)

[pokernut9999]

Horschel did not finish his round today , if you had a wager that was not graded. Not sure who he was matched against.

Waste management. What a sponsor.

[trytrytry]

it will be finished tomorrow .. just need to confirm it was Rory in the matchup

12 points for anyone who can dig that up who did books match him up with for tourny and 1st round (it was the same golfer)..thanks!

The Hershal match was against Chris Stroud.



I was SHOCKED that Hershal was favored by that much in that matchup.

that is the first place I looked! thanks however

playersonly...r u 100% sure that was Stroud? I had thought it was Rory for some reason..

[playersonly69]

Well it might have been Pressnell, but i think that it was Stroud. I am still shocked that this matchup wasnt a -110 matchup.



Matchups are always based on the tee times on the various players for the opening rounds. For instance, Philly Mick would NEVER have had a matchup with someone teeing off 6 hours later in the afternoon. The conditions are totally different from the morning to the afternoon. Tomorrow Phyllis has to play in the afternoon and it will be much more windy



You have 2 problems with the matchup being against Rory.

1. Rory would have been a -200 favorite in that matchup, not the dog
2. Rory is NOT even on our continent at this time!!!

why would he be tied for 43rd and leave the continent?

Not always in the same time. Charles Howell vs. bud Cauley today, 5dimes had that matchup available. One teed off in am, one in pm wave. It's rare but it does happen.

I thought that you were referring to the OTHER Rory!!

But Rory Sabatini would have been favored by at least -120 in that matchup

[floridagolfer]

Give me 2 million guesses and I never would have thought a casual mention of "Rory" was about someone other than McIlroy.
