FINAL RESULT: 2-1; +0.00pts
Lee/Gulbis LOST by 4
Prammanasudh/Gustafson WON by 8
Pressel/Icher WON by 14
Looked like a sweep until Lee dropped three shots on the 7th and 8th holes on
Sunday to surrender her lead over Gulbis. Still good value at those odds though.

Seon Hwa Lee to beat Natalie Gulbis +130 @
Pinnacle
[3pts]
There's too much hype in this line. Gulbis may attract a lot of headlines, but
she has yet to convince that she is a better player that Lee, against whom she
has a 4-7-0 h2h record, including just one win in their last five common events.
Gulbis does have the advantage in terms of course experience, but as she has yet
to record a top-10 finish on this course, it is not much of an advantage.
Stacy Prammanasudh to beat Sophie Gustafson -105 @
Pinnacle
Prammanasudh has been a model of consistency this year, but seven of nine
finishes in the top-25 and that is enough to earn her a 7-2-0 h2h record against
Gustafson in 2006. That is too much of an edge to be blunted by course
experience, of which Prammanasudh has none, but with Gustafson recording two
top-20 finishes and two missed cuts in her four previous visits, the more
consistent player has to be backed.
Morgan Pressel to beat Karine Icher -110 @
BetFred
Bit of a hedge play. Pressel has yet to play this course, but that is the case
most weeks and it hasn't stopped her compiling a 8-2-0 h2h record against Icher
over the past year. Pressel should be counted upon for a top-20 finish, so a
loss should hopefully mean a return on the outrights. |
