plays (2pts): Morris Hatalsky to beat Don Pooley -114 @
Expekt
Easy to side with a player who has finished outside the top-20 just once
just January (11 events). Pooley may have reached the playoff last week,
but it was the only time that he has not finished behind Hatalsky since
March. And having finished 22 places behind Hatalsky on this course last
year, I can't see him denying him the win two weeks in a row. Craig
Stadler to beat Jerry Pate -118 @
Centrebet
Pate may have shown some form recently, but it shouldn't prevail against
Stadler's class. Pate prevailed last week by just a single shot and that
was after Stadler had not played a competitive round of golf for a month
since pulling a muscle after an abrupt sneeze in the Senior PGA
Championship. Those are the only two occasions since February that
Stadler has failed to finish ahead of Pate, so with the rustiness gone
from his game, he should be much more competitive this week. |
