Justin Rose 24/1
Rory McIlroy 18/1
Padraig Harrington 25/1
Graeme McDowell 35/1
Darren Clarke 120/1

One time .. 8)

Jiminez does seem good value at 139s.

Steve Stricker who"s on red-hot form just now is still available at 47/1 ... that should be worth a few £ at this early stage too. Will I ... hmmmm ?

i"ll hope for another shock big price winner like Lawrie, Hamilton and Curtis , so i got my magic bean out and dropped it on a printout of the field and the bloody thing landed on Tiger lol lol terrible odds , bloomin magic beans bloody crap so i"ve chucked out in the garden.. So i gave the printout to my dogs , Harvey and Bailey they love ripping up paper , the plan was if i could find any intact names left then they"d be my boys [see below for results] ... Anyhows whilst all that happened i couldnt believe it but my magic bean had grown to be enormous already!!!! wtf , anyhows i luvvv climbing bean stalks , so catch u later....

Am holding off to see what the weather holds.  If the wind dies down i fancy Phil Mickelson or Paul Casey.  But if it looks like the wind will be there for the first couple days i will look for some value as it will be a totally different course.

he may be struggling, but Tiger makes St Andrews look like a "pitch and putt" course. Will be lumping on him here

Given the driving rain, fog and 40mph winds, I think Tiger"s got more to be worried about than a putter. The change is OBV for the better ... all about being more confident "swinging" with the putter on slow greens.

He did have back-to-back three putts a fortnight ago though ...
