Mauritius Open
Tricky to pick a winner here with possibly the weakest field ever on the European Tour. Coetzee, Hend, Stone & Van Zyl lead the betting markets in an open contest. There are open fairways which suggests that the course favours big hitters with little penalty for a lack of accuracy.
Scott Hend 12/1
The price is a bit short but I see Hend as the most likely winner if he plays to his potential. He has won for us at 45/1 in Thailand and placed at 50/1 in Shenzhen. Course is perfect for him. Could be close.
JeungHun Wang 20/1
Impressive winner in Morrocco last week and could repeat it this week against an even weaker field.
Haydn Porteous 28/1
Won the Jo'burg Open in January and should be suited by this course. Good enough for a top five finish.
Max Orrin 40/1
Very mixed views on Orrin's chances here. He is the course specialist with three wins and a fifth on this course in the last two years. Some might say that he hasn't beaten much but he beat Colsaerts & Otto three times and the field isn't much stronger here and 40/1 is a fair price.
Chris Hanson 80/1
I was impressed with him last week in Morocco where a fifth place didn't really do him justice. He has a 6th & 12th placed finishes on this course so could be close this week at a decent price.
Good Luck!

The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
