london_geeza, I don`t use the tote & betfair etc because they don`t do yankees, canadians , trixies and patents etc ! Although, if purely outrights appeal, then the tote and betfair provide much better odds as you say !
Anyhow, I like to follow the stats, to see if any anomalies happen. Looking at the willhill site, odd....oddities turn up ! For example , right now
Fred Funk is 125/1 and is 3 under par ! This course, and the way it`s playing lengthwise would suit
Fred I would have thought, far more so than the other Majors. That represents over 30/1 for finishing fifth ! I rate him higher than they do !
Then
Tom Lehman is 100/1 ,and he`s been playing well lately, and one of my favourites
A.Romero is 125/1. It just goes to show, that if
Tiger has a good round...the bookies disregard everyone else`s chances....!
Have a look at the site, and see if you too see similar oddities price wise, after round one !
Forgot to add - Morning tee times are usually the calmist time to play links golf ! Which puts Tiger in a good position as he`s played his late tee time already. So the best odds/weighting has to come from other players who are also starting early tomorrow, but are currently highly priced.
