Just for fun, and to help the time pass, I decided to bet 2 2nd round matchups in Golf in Arnold Palmer's tourny.
Wouldn't you know both of my matchups would go to the last hole.
1) I have Ernie Els, and he trails Ian Poulter by 1 stroke. Els has a 7 foot putt to give me the push after Poulter's round was complete, but he chokes! I lose by 1.
2) I have Allenby, and he is tied with Baddeley on the final hole. Allenby has a 2 footer for birdie, which he drains. Of course Baddeley hits his 26 foot birdie putt for the push.
If Els hits his 7 footer, and Baddeley misses his 26 footer, then I go 1-0-1.
Instead the opposite happens, and I go 0-1-1.
I gave it a try, and it's not worth betting.
