Parklife Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 I feel it's only right that I point out that there's no such golf tournament as the British Open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orraloon Posted July 14, 2015 Author Share Posted July 14, 2015 I feel it's only right that I point out that there's no such golf tournament as the British Open. My money was on Biffer for that one. That's my first British Open bet down the tubes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orraloon Posted July 14, 2015 Author Share Posted July 14, 2015 Well he has a point I play in about a dozen opens a year. I like to be able to differentiate between them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angus_Young Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Have stuck a few quid on Fowler, Warren and McDowell. Warren returned me £60 at the weekend with his 3rd place finish. Always got the potential to shoot low 60's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always got the potential to shoot low 60's. I watched Warren practicing yesterday (pretty sure it was him but could be wrong). He was stood on the 9th tee and some official type geezers were wandering about on the middle of the fairway. He hung about for a wee while then said " I'm just going to smack it over the top of their heads" And smack it he did, right over their heads and it landed about 50 yards in front of them. Imagine having the confidence to be able to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine having the confidence to be able to do that. Bit of an underachiever when you consider his ability IMO. Really thought he would push right up the rankings and be challenging for Ryder Cup teams. Shows how good he can be in flashes just needs to put 4 days in a row together and he will be off and running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dandydunn Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 I play in about a dozen opens a year. I like to be able to differentiate between them. Me too. I've played the Newburgh open,duff house open and buckpool open recently. I would never confuse any of these with "The Open" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan Blackheart Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 I know he shapes the ball the wrong way for St. Andrews but I have a feeling for Kaymer. And Stenson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyramid Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 I Put a sizeable bet on oosti in April @ 50/1, so fingers crossed there. And il have a speculative punt on sneds to win his group. Best of luck to all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairbairn Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 I didn't actually appreciate how good Garcia's record is in The Open. 8 top ten finishes from 18 appearances including 2 seconds and another 3 top fives. I'll go for T36 this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMcoolJ Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Cabrero-Calla, Joost Luiten and Patrick Reed. (Apologies for any poor spelling). Glad to see the comments already made on the thread title.

Fairbairn Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 I've stuck speculative EW punts on Tiger and Tommy Fleetwood. Fleetwood is apparently something like -40 for his last 8 rounds at St Andrews and holds the course record with 62. Tiger is a nostalgia bet!!
