          Can't say I have a strong fancy, had token €100 EW's 8 places on

          Gmac 25/1
          Lee 25/1 Well it's a tradition to take a bit of Westwood major pain
          Sned 40/1


          Will also throw a few quid at Kaymer for old time sake, really looking forward studying the 3balls and smaller markets over next two days, then playing hard in running. Some serious couch time put in from Thursday.

                They haven't been too bad. Top price on Paddy this morning @ 70s if ya want to go down that route.

                I have added Sergio for my share of the pain and will add Tommy Bjorn once that neck injury checks out.

                        Took the PP special of Tiger, Mickelson or Rose to win.

                          He retired half way through his 2nd round in Scotland citing a neck injury.

                          His price went out from 40s and 50s to 66s and 75s since.


                          IT'S the oldest of golf's Majors and can be as eccentric and incorrigible as a mischievous elderly uncle. Anything can happen at the British Open, from the wacky to the wonderful – even this week, when it takes place on the fairest links of them all, Muirfield.


                          If he recovers from the sore neck which caused him to pull out of the Scottish Open last Friday, the in-form Bjorn this week might even emulate Darren Clarke's 2011 feat of winning his first Major title at age 42.

                            Any value in Sergio? Friend did a piece on GolfBlogger.co.uk here. Recommends Sergio. Playoff bet looks a decent price too based on that.

                            What's the PPP special Oscar?

                              Any of those 3 to win at 5.5, not sure if it's great value, I'm definitely a golf betting fish. Just want a sweat on Sunday in work.

                                  Dustin, Mickleson, Oosthuizen. Might just add on Molinari and Lowry for long shots. Great weekend ahead.
                                  Favourite open course along with St Andrews.

                                      Ernie Els

                                      Open record since 2000

                                      7 Top 5's
                                      2 other Top 10's
                                      2 wins (including the last time The Open was held at Muirfield)

                                      The Big Easy is gonna be my main bet, has been showing good form this year and a win Europe a few weeks ago!!

                                      Priced @ 33/1 to defend his title...

                                      Other horses include:
                                      Manaserro 70/1
                                      Bjorn 80/1
                                      Lowry 100/1

                                        ernie els will struggle on the greens here.

                                        And whoever mentioned garcia would want there head examined

                                        Im going with adam scott, seems to be gearing his game to majors these days so I wouldnt worry about his form coming into this. He is technically superb and can plot his way around nicely.

                                        Hope shane lowry can get in the mix too but i wouldnt back him

                                                      That was pretty much my thinking on it. Both are well capable of pulling a stinker, although Tiger probably a lot less likely at the mo. Course the very good weather wont really help either.

                                                      Still though couldnt resist a mugs bet at that price. All the PP Enhanced bets are here
