US Open is next week!
Here are the tournament match ups that appealed to me this week in Memphis:
Conners -130 vs Murray: This is more of a fade of Murray than a play on Conners. Although Conners is having a breakout year and has to be feeling really good about his play. He is coming off a T8 in his last event. Murray on the other hand seems to be having some issues. He withdrew mid tournament three weeks ago, promptly missed the cut the following week, and last week made the cut at the Memorial but seemed completely disinterested on the weekend shooting 74 81. Give me the guy who is coming off his best placing in his last event vs a guy who seems to be going the wrong direction...
Thornberry +150 vs Gay: Really tough to say how this match will go but I think this should be closer to -110 both ways. Gay is a 46 year old journeyman who is a solid player but has not really had a lot of success of late. Thornberry is an amateur who is most likely returning back to Ole Miss for his senior season. He played in this event last year and place T4... pretty remarkable first PGA event. He knows the course well I cannot find a reason to think he will play poorly this week. He did just qualify for the US Open next week... This price is just too generous in my eyes...
Dahmen +110 vs Piercy: Piercy is not playing well despite being #33 in FedEx cup points this season. He won the Zurich this year which is a team event. His putting has been really poor this year. Dahmen has been really solid of late having four top 25's in a row. He has made 9/10 cuts since the beginning of February. Piercy has made 7/12 cuts in the same time frame.
2-2 last week for a -0.05 units loss
Fade or follow best of luck this week guys

Nice card and write up
My write up on Thornberry is almost identical.
Good luck.
Hey what are your thoughts on Horshel and on Phil?
They are matched up against An and Finau, respectively, neither of whom have played here before. The greens here are tough and may pose problems for players unfamiliar

I should have stuck with Phil this week. I've had a rough time betting on and against Finau so I passed. Really liked Horschel last week and he blew up round 2 and missed the cut. Right idea/ bad timing on Thornberry. They dangled that +150 bait and I bit. It's not over yet obviously but he's going to need a very solid round to make the cut. Good luck bud...

Piercy WD was helpful. Just need Thornberry to make the cut and anything can happen on the weekend. Unreal putting for him though so far. Murray is hanging in there. If he is not near the lead he seems to get disinterested on the weekends... Have you been able to hold off on the single round bets this week?

I’m not posting daily rounds but playing small. Can’t resist.
Degenerate Maybe. Daily’s are too tough.
Anyway I know the tourney bets are the way to go do I’ll mostly post those and hope for the best
Hit pretty good this week so far as I had Phil v Finau good and Horschel v An too. Shocked I won Horschel but I’ll take it.
Thornberry still alive after a nice turnaround on day 2 so this is shaping up as a nice week. Also had Dahmen v Piercey so that was a fortunate win with Piercey WD
Looking forward to next week.
Me and Andy are heading to Shinnecock for the Open on Thursday and Friday. Maybe Saturday too.
Gonna be a helluva good time
