Well after Phil Mickelson's superb performance over the weekend in winning the Shell Open its hard to see past him as he goes for his third green jacket...


Sundays victory was his first since winning the Masters last year and he has come right into form at the right time...


But 7/1 surely is way too skinny even for a player with Mickelsons class...



At around 12/1...TIGER WOODS coulld be massive value if putting in a decent opening round. I feel he might just be getting some old form back and if anyone knows his way round here its Tiger. Never one to give up im sure that at sometime within the four days 12/1 will look a big price.



LUKE DONALD @ 28/1..isn't really a fav of mine but might just have the short game to go close here especially if driving the ball well. Not a big hitter but a superb player of mid irons so maybe he can get into the places at worst.,


DUSTIN JOHNSON @ 33/1..took time to win and has led a major going into the final round only to blow his chance with a penalty on the 18th....Big hitter who if on song could make this course look on the short side.


STEVE STRICKER @ 50/1..Is another player who looks like he can make the frame for a decent e/w bet. Played quite well Sunday until just running out of steam over the last five holes. Doesnt do anything spectacular but has a solid all round game and thats whats needed round here.



Tiger for me is a WIN BET with a decent chance of laying off in running....


The other three look to have great place chances and with most bookies offering 5 places 1/4 odds i think we can get at least one of these three running for us come Sunday....
