2013 BMW International Open Betting Preview, Predictions and Tips

BMW International Open, Golfclub München Eichenried

Early odds on the exchanges

Ross Fisher 38/1

bmw tipsRoss is playing mainly on the PGA Tour this year and after a tough start to the season, began to find form in early May. Tied 10th at the Wells Fargo was followed by a solid showing at Wentworth, then a solo eighth at the Nordea Masters. Missed the cut at the St Jude Classic last time out but Fisher will relish a return to Germany where he has top 10’d for the past three years. Has a best of second behind David Horsey in 2010.

Henrik Stenson 20/1

Henrik hasn’t started a strokeplay event in mainland Europe since the Portugal Masters in 2012 where he tied sixth and he has reinvented himself as a straight hitter on the PGA Tour this year. Big finishes at Arnie’s tournament (tied eighth), Houston (tied second) and The Players Championship (tied fifth). The Swede has three top 10’s in the last five years at this tournament including tying ninth in 2011 and tying sixth last year in Larchenof. I think he’ll have a good week.

Pablo Larrazabal 32/1

The Spaniard may have missed the cut in a wet Austria last time out, but he had four consecutive top 15’s before that, including a tied sixth in Korea and tied fifth in China. Larrazabal won last time they played here in Eichenried in 2011 and interestingly won the Open de France in the same week in June in2008. It’s Karma!

Marcel Siem 40/1

The home favourite this week is Marcel Siem. The ponytailed one has already added a Trophee Hassan win in March to his Open de France title from 2012, but has been playing almost exclusively on the PGA Tour this year with limited success. Played all four rounds of the US Open last week, if he’s not exhausted, Marcel should find this a doddle compared to Merion!

Joost Luiten 32/1

The super consistent Dutchman has six top 25’s in his last seven starts on the European Tour culminating in his win last time out in Austria. Has a best of tied third in 2011 behind Larrazabal.

Best Of The Rest

I also like Mark Foster 95/1 at this time of the year. Tied third here in 2011 and top 20’d again last year. Showed he still has plenty of game with a tied fifth in Portrush last year and has finished under par in his last three tournaments. Worth a little each way flutter.

David Horsey 50/1 has missed his last two cuts at Wentworth and Austria but prior to that he scored three top sixes including a tied second in Morocco. Horsey won here in 2010, and he’ll have been working hard to find form.

Paul Casey 38/1 played all four rounds of the US Open after getting through in sectional qualifying and he’ll be looking for a good week in Germany. Tied for third at the height of his powers in 2008.

Two Naked Pics Of Holly Sonders. The Big News To Emerge From The 2013 PGA Show

Image
The media centre at the 2013 PGA Show was buzzing yesterday.  Not because of anything that happened at the show.  God forbid! When I rocked in, several men (and one woman) were gathered around an iphone ogling and sharing  two pics of who they claimed were Holly Sonders naked. Now I have to hold my hands up and say, I had to google her to find out she’s from The Golf Channel. I don’t watch the Golf Channel because I don’t have an erectile dysfunction problem or need to rent a car from National.  I’m told adverts for both are all that’s on that channel. How they knew for certain it was her, I dont know.  Unless the cheeks of her ass were on her passport photo and they recognized them from there, but I doubt it. The First Pic The first pic is taken from behind. No pun intended.  The media guys say it was taken by her fiancee (?) and shows Holly in a white thong which has disappeared a dangerously long ways into the bummage.  I’m talking t...

Sarah Stirk Nipple Gate: Navy Top Leaves Viewers Disappointed

Image
London: Sky Sports management this morning issued a statement  apologizing to subscribers after Sarah Stirk wore a navy dress live on air.  It is believed up to 60,000 horny golfers were left limp after they tuned in to final round coverage of the Valero Texas Open in the hope of getting a glimpse of the legendary Stirk starter buttons. “I pay my subscription, I’m bloody well entitled to see Sarah’s Wimbledon strawberries” said factory worker Paul Manning 52 from Hereford. “I even missed the ten minute freeview, coz my mate Derek tweeted that Stirk was going into the shot centre for ten minutes at 11pm”. The Sky statement read: We apologize unreservedly for the navy dress Sarah wore during last nights broadcast, through which no nipples were visible. This was due to a wardrobe malfunction. However we do intend to rectify this during our US Masters coverage and assure viewers that plenty of bridge rivets will be on show, both from Sarah and special guest Colin M...
