So whose tipping who to win?

I have a sneaky bet on KJ Choi, but would like to see Luke Donald win it.

My bets are in the betting thread.

But gone for Rory, Donald and Garcia.

KJ hasn't really done well in the Open but playing well this year so you never know I would like to see him up there on Sunday.

Looking forward to this now

I fancy McIlroy but the odds are utterly shit, understandably.

Might stick a tenner on him each way.

I can't remember a golfer ever (barring Woods) having such short odds in comparison with the rest of the pack.

8/1 for a major with a field of over 150 golfers.

Odds aren't what they used to be when Tiger was dominating.

Although Tiger has fallen away, the rest of the field have 'caught' up with him to some extent so that will play a part on shorted odds.

Doubt many people had Thomas Bjorn to be up there on day 1. Looks like my McIlroy bet on first day is done

Garcia looked pretty good last week. Surely his time to win something Having said that it's usually one of those Middle of the ranking palyers that wins it!

I'm sure I have an E/W on Jiminez at silly odds. I'll check at home as betting sites are blocked at work

problem is with golf is lots of them come in 2nd, 3rd, 4th place etc so the odds get divided again.

i've put money on luke donald, choi and harrington

Thats why I only ever go long and E/W. Picking a winner from a field of 150 is solid.

Garcia looked good untill his massive slice off the tea

My bets in the end were Choi / Garcia / Donald / Mcdowell & Rorrry - Most money on Mcdowell. All E/W paying 7 places.

Ah just found my bets from t'other thread.

KJ Choi - 45/1
McDowell - 28/1
Garcia - 32/1
Fisher - 80/1
Watney - 35/1
Rory - 7/1
Donald - 11/1

Even on a tiny screen, i'm loving the open coverage.

Tom Watson hole in one was full of win.

Pitched and hopped straight in

McDowell is having a massive fail today, +7.

Westwood also looking like he could miss cut

After yesterday I would have said it was a good looking bet. He played really well and looked comfortable out there. He just keeps having a massive fail during a tournament. I can't see him making the cut

At this rate none of my bets will come in! FAIL


Kaymer seems to be playing quite well, who do you guys think will take it?

Also shocked at how well Darren Clarke is playing
