Brian Gay 33/1

m5Hard to believe that when Brian Gay won the Humana Classic back in January he was set to have one of his crappiest seasons on Tour, but that’s exactly what happened. Gay didn’t manage even one top 20 finish in the 2013 season after winning but has started the wraparound 2014 campaign well with a T4 at the McGladrey Classic last week. That performance included an opening round 63 and if Gay brings his game to this course where he won in 2008 (back then staged in February and tied fifth in 2011, he has to be a good each way shot.

Briny Baird 50/1

m1You could say Briny handed Chris Kirk victory at the McGladrey last week in an embarrassing manner, but I feel differently and empathize with him. Baird was faced with an awkward downhill lie in the bunker on 18; he simply had to take the shot on. Okay he slipped and topped into a hazard but at least he had the balls to try and handled himself with dignity after. I give Baird a great shot this week on the El Camaleon course; he hasn’t been outside the top 15 since 2008 and had three consecutive top six finishes from 2009 to 2011. Will the golfing Gods serve justice?

Matt Every 28/1

m3Despite some late mistakes I saw enough at the McGladrey last week to fancy Matt Every for a good performance in Mexico. Enjoyed watching him contend at Colonial (T4) this year and Liberty National in the playoffs (T9).Tied for third in the 2012 event, just two behind winner John Huh.

Chris Stroud 33/1

m4I wonder if Chris can see his family home in Texas from the course across the Gulf Of Mexico? Yes he missed the cut on 5 over at the McGladrey but tied for third two weeks previous at the CIMB Classic in Malaysia. Stroud has been in the top five in the last two stagings of the Mayakoba with a T5 in 2012 and solo fourth in 2011.

Greg Chalmers 66/1

m2Just a month after his 40th birthday Greg Chalmers tees it up on the PGA Tour instead of playing the meat of the Australian season. Tied 15th at The Shriners in late October, his best result for ages and improved again with a T10 at the McGladrey. I remember Greg winning the Aussie Open and PGA around this time in 2011 and for me he’s well worth a couple of quid each way.

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...
