Its time to turn our attention to the Buick Championship
this week. There is a huge open field in this one. Those
looking down the coupon will see that there is no Phil
Mickelson, no Vijay Singh, and even the great man Tiger
Woods is absent. That means that there is going to be a big
priced winner of the tournament. The hard thing is which one
to pick!
The last two tournaments have seen two huge outsiders
claim the title, at odds of 150/1 and 250/1, and so it is a
very difficult tournament to predict from a betting
perspective. The favourite here is Kenny Perry, who has
already won twice this year, and has some decent course
form, however his confidence may be a little low after he
capitulated last week in the final round of the World
Series.
One man that stands out is Dutchman Bo Van Pelt, who is in
good form at the moment and is performing consistently. His
recent form includes a tie for 17th in the PGA Championship.
He has given himself some time out for this event, and at a
huge price of 33/1, he looks a decent pick out of the
players lower down the coupon. Each way may be the value
here with Van Pelt.
Another player who will be looking to bolster his credentials
to stay in the top 125 is Craig Barlow. He is a great
performer here, with ties ties for 8th and 15th twice in his
last three starts, so at 40/1he does look a great value bet.
The winner of the BC Open last month, Jason Bohn, can
also be backed to continue his blistering form into this
tournament. Amazingly, he is a huge 31 under in the last
four times he has started a tournament. He came joint sixth
in this tournament last year, and at 40/1 looks another
player who is a great value bet for punters. He should go
close this week.
Recommendations: Bo Van Pelt @ 33/1; Craig Barlow @
40/1; Jason Bohn @ 40/1 (Each-way ¼ odds 1.2.3.4.5)
