Can't find much value in this week's odds with the limited field, but Purtzer
and McNulty do stand out at the available odds. Purtzer was backed last week and
was in 2nd place at the start of back nine on Sunday, but fell back.
Nevertheless, he continued his surprising consistency that was remarked upon
last week. In his last ten starts, he has finished outside the top-20 just once
and that was just 23rd. It is a similar story in California with top-20 finishes
in 13 of his last 15 starts, including two wins in this State. He has finished
7th twice in three attempts on this course and with the forecast good, he should
be better placed to fare well this week than last year. And he is certainly
playing enough to fare well again.

Despite winning events in both his first two seasons on this Tour, McNulty had
long been discounted this year after some competing below his best for quite
some time. But there is clear evidence that his game is returning. He looked
like a possible winner on the front nine on Sunday last week before finishing
7th and that is his best finish since the Regions Charity Classic which he
really should have won back in May. And there is his course form to consider. He
won this event in 2004 and despite being 21st of 30 after two rounds, he shot
65-68 over the weekend to finish 4th. That is worth considering whatever his
current form.
