[Tony2005]

studying heres my selections..


BEN CURTIS (66/1 )...Loves links golf and especially The Open Championship....Not the most exciting player to watch but will revel in these conditions and a top six finish would do us for the e/w momey....


IAN POULTER (40/1)..until recently not a player i liked but over the last 12 months i think his game has come on a bundle and he can now be a serious challenger in the majors and was a shade unlucky to finish runner up in the states earlier in the season. If he can keep the ball straight i think he has a chance.


JUSTIN LEONARD (125/1)..not a bloke i like after his antics in the ryder cup a few years back but this is betting and not a popularity contest so i think he will give us a good run for our cash and an e/w bet is advised.


NICK DOHERTY (175/1)..heres a player who has played most of his golf on links courses and won the Dunhill a few years back....Could well suprise at big e/w odds this week...


COLIN MONTGOMERIE (275/1)..Now i know what you are all thinking.......but i still think theres one big performance left in Monty and on a course where he had his best ever Open result this might just be the week....For sure if he starts ok his price will plummet so could lay off for a free bet ....E/W value and who knows maybe this could be the biggie....



Tiger as usual is short (5/2) and i always feel its worth taking him on in majors...

Harrington (40/1) woefully out of form and cant be backed at any price.

Sergio (33/1) deserves a major but i just think his putting here wont be good enough and a place maybe the best he can ask for...


Anyway ALL FOUR DAYS are live on BBC starting with tomorrows first round at 9am.


Hopefully come Sunday evening we will be quids in......
