Valero Texas Open (Day One)
Bryson DeChambeau 25/1 +2 Tied 110
Aaran Baddeley 66/1 +2 Tied 110
KJ Choi 125/1 -1 Tied 40th
Brendan Steele leads on -8 by two from Charley Hoffman on a rain affected opening day where half the field still have to complete their opening round. Not a great day for our guys with the projected cut being around par.

Shenzehen International (Day Two)
The weather was the real winner with half the field still to complete their second round, In fact, some players still have 16 holes to play in Round Two, distorting the leader board. Soomin Lee took advantage of the soft greens to reach -13 and lead by three from Joost Luiten, who is three ahead of Paul Dunne & Brandon Stone. Our guys are still in the mix with Fleetwood & Hend still having 15 & 16 holes of round two play respectively.

Most players have completed their second round now and all three of our guys are in contention for at least a place. Hopefully, the leaders will get most of round three completed today.

Shenzehen International (Day Four)
Most players have completed their third round now and Hend is the club house leader behind three players on -14. If the conditions are tough tomorrow, he might steal this but realistically, we probably gey a 50/1 place.

Volvo China Open
A difficult one to assess as this course is used for the first time for this event so we have just a couple of minor events to go on and general form in China so I will be keeping bets small and going largely by current form.
It will probably take a score of close to -20 to win here so we need players that can rack up birdies without throwing away too many shots elsewhere.
Joost Luiten is a deserved favourite at 10/1 and it is hard to see anyone more likely to win with Weisberger, Levy & Ross Fisher close behind. The most recent winners of this event have been Wu at 200/1, Levy at 150/1, Rumford at 50/1, Grace at 60/1 and Colsaerts at 80/1 so picking a winner isn't easy.
Joost Luiten 10/1
Luiten is the man in form with two second place finishes in his last two starts plus a sixth in Thailand last month. Should be right there and is the most likely winner this week.
Alex Noren 28/1
I have dabbled with Noren quite a bit and was impressed with his latest sixth placed finish in the Spanish Open and in a weaker field could triumph here.
Soomin Lee 35/1
Cannot help but be impressed how he held it together last week to claim his first European Tour victory. After blowing up in Malaysia a few weeks ago when clear, this time, he held firm. How will he fare this week? Not sure but at the price, he is worth a punt.
Scott Hend 35/1
Got us a place last week at 50/1 & is the kind of player suited to chasing a very low score. He won in Thailand last month and claimed fourh last week & has every chance of going close again.
Probably a 100/1 shot will come through & surprise us all again so keeping stakes low.

Zurich Classic of New Orleans
We have plenty of form to go on here for the 70th staging of this event. The field is of moderate standard but with three "Top Ten" players in the field, it will take some winning but there are some decent prices about.
The field is led by Jason Day, Justin Rose & Rickie Fowler, all at relatively short prices. Day is 5/1 so I really cannot get involved. Cannot get excited about Fowler at 12/1 when he hasn't hit a ball since he fell apart at the Masters. Rose has his merits. The course suits him, he has a good record here and he appears to be coming into form but 17/2 doesn't quite do it for me.
Once you eliminate the top three then picking decent priced possibilities becomes much easier. The course seems to suit players who are good at GIR, Scrambling & Putting and while Putting can be hit & miss, to find decent candidates for GIR & Scrambling is reasonably straightforward.
Daniel Berger 25/1
Berger is the name that jumps off the page when you look at the combination of suitability & form. A fifth in Houston & tenth at the Masters this month show that he is in top form. He was tied sixth here a year ago so loves the course & is in better form now. Seems the obvious candidate, on paper at least.
Patton Kizzire 60/1
Another player who should be ideally suited to this course. !4th last time out and looks ripe to be close again in an event that often produces a maiden winner.
Jamie Lovemark 50/1
A bit hit & miss but don't want to miss out when he hits. Results this year have been 7th - 6th - 31st - MC - 20th - MC - 37th - 6th - 18th - MC. Just needs to push on and turn those top twenty finishes into a win and on a course that suits his scrambling, this could be the week.
Cameron Tringale 50/1
Likes this event, finishing second last year, 17th in 2014, 7th in 2012 & 18th in 2011. Clearly suited to the course & could be his break through week.
Good Luck!

Nothing great will ever be achieved without great men, and men are great only if they are determined to be so. For glory gives herself only to those who have always dreamed of her.
