The Players Championship Golf 2011

[Tony2005]

The 5th major the Players starts tomorrow deom Sawgrass...

Famous for it 17th Island Green hole this course is one of the hardest on tour..


From a betting view i have taken four against the field..


TIGER WOODS @ 16/1....Always worth an investment as if hes anywhere near the lead his price will shorten.

At the Masters he was 18/1 before the tournement started and going into the last nine holes on the Sunday you could have laid off at evens for a tidy profit...



DUSTIN JOHNSON @ 45/1....Long and straight hitter who has played well here before...Should be up there come Sunday when this price will look massive.



SERGIO GARCIA @ 50/1...Sometimes theres a story behind a winner and with the sad death of Seve how apt it would be if a fellow Spaniard was to win here....

Garcia was the winner of this tournement in 2008 so is proven round here with a couple of top ten finishes to go with the win.




ANGEL CABRERRA @ 160/1...Big hitter should pick up plenty of birdies on the par 5s and that could be the key to him doing well this week.,




I would suggest a WIN BET on TIGER with the option to lay off..


The other three look E/W value with most bookies paying 5 or 6 places 1/4 odds...
