Summary: 3 Bets, 2 Wins, 1 Loss. 13.44 Pts Profit. Tournament Trades Buy Mike Weir FP at 28 with Spreadex for 0.6 Pts. M/U 50, Profit 13.2 Pts Canada's most famous golfer makes another attempt to win his own national championship having come close two years ago. It was the year previous to that though that this event was last played at Hamilton golf course and Weir finished 10th shooting three 69's and a 70. His record this year has been a big improvement on 2005 when he was injured for most of the year and his average FP in his 17 starts is 28, his buy price this week. His average though over the 2nd part of the year has been a few points higher and his only real performances of any note are 6th places at the US Open and US PGA. His performance in lower standard events has seen no Top 10's since February bar a 6th place in Houston in April. Arguably, though, this is Weir's biggest event of the year outside the majors and Sawgrass but with all the results available to us he should possibly be a little higher than he is. Buy Stewart Cink FP at 25.6 with Cantor Spreadfair for 0.6 Pts. M/U 12, Loss 8.16 Pts First time visit to the course for Cink who averages in 2006 just above his buy price this week. For a full field event with an average quality compared to most other events in the year he should possibly be about 27/28 which he is elsewhere. There isn't a great deal of value about this week bar and in other weeks this bet could have been passed over for more "standout" bets. Round One Trades Sell Mark Brooks over Ted Purdy 18H MB at 0 with IG Sport for 0.3 Pts M/U -28, Profit 8.4 Pts Brooks has had much the better of exchanges in "theoretical" matches with Purdy of late, winning 4 of the last 5. However, over the long term, Purdy has won 29 of 39 matches and leads 25-10 in R1 pairings and 53-28 in all rounds. Purdy is a better player than Brooks and with none of the two having any course form to examine I am going to side with the longer term view. Another reason to support him is that although his form has been very poor of late with 6 consecutive missed cuts, Brooks' form has tailed off dramatically after a good summer period. In his last 5 events he has failed to reach the weekend in four of them and both are now playing very poorly.
