Week 1: Turning Stone Resort Selections

There are Two events on the PGA tour this week, one for the good players, and one for the not so good players. Let's have a stab at the not so good players then.

Selection 1: James Nitties @ 90/1 Bet365 - 1pt E/W


James missed the cut last week, so how can I justify picking him? 

Well, he Shot a very impressive second round 63 to make up for a dismal first round which should provide him with enough confidence going into this week. He has shown moderate form the past few weeks and Finished inside the top 20 here last year. Let's hope he carries on his recent form and that MC last week has helped with the chunky price.

Selection 2: Jerry kelly @ 150/1 Bet365 - 1pt E/W

The price for Jerry this week is staggering. He's one of the best players in the field, without question. 

The reason behind the high price is he has 4 MC's in a row coming into this event. Out of form right? Yes, and no. He shot average rounds in all the events except for the Brittish open where he played poorly, but this isn't the Brittish open now is it? so that form can be excused. The law of averages would say he's going to make the cut this week and i've a sneaky feeling he might do a lot more, expecting at least one low round from Jerry this week.

Selection 3: Brian Davis @ 125/1 Stan James - 1pt E/W

The nearly man of the year. The forgotten man of the year. Not anymore.

Brian will be remembered this year for his sportsmanship when handing victory to Jim Furyk after he interefered with his own ball by accident, at the Verizon Heritage (Oh yeah, now i remember him lol.) He has showed good form in spits and spats this year and not alot recently, but the Two second place finishes this year shows he can get it going. He's never won on the PGA tour and he will have as good a chance as any in this low key event with little media attention.


Total Staked: 6 pts.
