Matchup Picks - Champions Tour

|
Farmers Charity Classic (2pts):
Keith Fergus to beat Des Smyth -122 @
Five
Dimes
Both players are making their debut on this course, so siding with the
player in better form. Smyth has finished 40th and 57th in his last two
Champions Tour events, positions which Fergus has finished higher than
in all of his six Champions Tour starts to date.
Tom Jenkins to beat Jim Thorpe -115 @
Centrebet
Thorpe has excellent form on this course until last year, but has really
struggled (bar one week) since returning from injury in April. Jenkins
has finished ahead of Thorpe in six of their last seven common events
and the outright selection should continue in the same vein this week.
Wayne Levi to beat Dana Quigley -111 @
Stan James
Both these players are evenly matched this season and in good form, but
Levi has by far the better recent course form. While he has been
finishing 4th and 23rd in the last two years, Quigley has been 50th and
64th. Enough of a difference for me to side with Levi.
Final update: 1-1-0; -0.22pts
Fergus/Smyth WON by 3
Jenkins/Thorpe VOID (Jenkins dns)
Levi/Quigley LOST by 4
Small loss on the matchups and thankful for that! Jenkins did not
start so the match was void, but his opponent, Jim Thorpe, won the
event!
