Should we just blindly bet Rahm, Koepka, Oosthuizen?

One hand of Blackjack is over in seconds, this can last days.
    I hope you win, I just can't see either or them ever winning a major. They could be up by 5 going into the final round and I still think they would finish out of the top 10.

      Added Fowler and D.J. This may turn into a lotto ticket if I keep this pace. At least their more logical selections.

        What happened to Fowler? He used to always compete in majors. Then suddenly he fell apart.

          Do I even need to do research... this course is made for Rahm, Koepka always contends and Louie shows up in majors.
          I bet Koepka but I didn't touch Rahm even though he should be in contention all weekend the way he's playing. Just couldn't do it at 7/1 or whatever they wanted to give me on him. I think Spieth makes noise this week and he's on a lot of people's radar because this course fits his game.

            I see 8 to 1 for Rahm. 18 to 1 Koepka. 33 to 1 Oosthuizen.

            Do the bombers have any advantage? Spieth good at scrambling and putting.

              Koepka already complaining that he doesn't like the course and it is unfair with a lot of lucky bounces involved. He apparently is already bored of playing it...

              So maybe some random could win? Or it is just Koepka being Koepka.

                Guys good off the tee should play well here but I think this week accuracy and being good around the green are more important. The rough is thick so its key to avoid the bunkers and rough. I took a shot on Spieth because he has played well at links courses in the past so I took a shot on him at 19/1. I think playing Rahm is fine because like I said nobody is playing better right now but I just don't like taking golfers with odds that short at majors.

                  I mean he is right. It is a stupid course.. just hills everywhere.. could land it in the middle of the fairway and have a terrible lie

                          Arrogance. He thinks he is Tiger Woods at majors but hasn't won one in a few years now.

                          It all started with his fight with DJ and now he is a miserable person.

                                        I have a feeling that a no name will win this. Like a 500 to 1 longshot.

                                            I'm on Spieth too posted in the other thread earlier. That's it for me.

                                                Wouldn't mind a Oosthuizen Spieth battle Sunday.

                                                    Koepka sucks today. Still have hope for Spieth and Oosthuizen. Both would be big wins, although Louie is known for finishing 2nd.

                                                      I hedged with Louie to break even. A couple of my longshots, Hughes and Scheffler are on the leader board. Going into Sunday there are four possible results. Win 200, win 100, Break Even or lose 20 bucks.

                                                        3 of the 4 favorites going into Sunday I have money on.

                                                        So Morikawa needs to collapse.

                                                          I think 6 players with a chance to win.

                                                          Oosthuizen 35%
                                                          Morikawa 35%
                                                          Spieth 20%
                                                          Scheffler 8%
                                                          Conners 1%
                                                          Rahm 1%

                                                          That is how I see their chances.

                                                            If Rahm shoots a 64 tomorrow he will win it. He is playing with house money right now.
