How can you say that until you know the final standings on Sunday?
I'd have happily swapped - no-one asked.
Starting to wish I hadn't bothered joining . . . Thought it was meant to be a laugh. |

Next you'll be hearing that I have a 'scratch' handicap...
Its a massive field, and without Woods in the line up, it has made it a bit open. Nothing wrong with Donna's selections other than the stats will tell you they are not the form men coming into the event. Its a major and as such form tends to go out the window. They are all quality players in their own right and are amongst the 30 odd players who could win come Sunday afternoon. Woods has made it that way...

What's the point of being at work if you're simply on the internet, making hoover-related comments?
Unless you work for a vacuum company, that is . . .
See you tonight - might let you have the game seeing as i'm poorly sick.  |

Danny said that Shaggy's never won anything in this League and women have no place in pool, so the use of the word 'Legends' is preposterous. . .
. . there's only ever been one 'D Evans' on a Croydon singles winner trophy so far though, so he's simply got 'second best player in his household' syndrome.  |

Why didn't I bet on Scotland being wet and windy?
That's like betting on whether you'll blame your Tuesday loss of frame on a roll-off, kick or humidity issues. . . |

unlike everyone else who gets a kick or a ball rolls off and they say "no i missed, it was all my fault"...!!!
surely if that bet was a dead cert as your implying then that's the sort of bet you want???
?5 e/w: Sergio Garcia @ 9/1* - +3 now @ 12's
?5 e/w: Ernie Els @ 9/1* - +10 now @ 100/1
?5 e/w: Phil Mickleson @ 16/1* - +9 now @ 80/1
?5 e/w: Vijay Singh @ 25/1* - +10 now @ 200-1
obviously you looked into the weather conditions bfore you put your bets on!
looks like a spanish win is your only hope! lets hope so, so you can start the kitty off with a fiver profit

Scotland, I hear, was cloudy with the occasional bright spots, quite mild for this time of the year....
Royal Birkdale on the other hand, being situated in ENGLAND on the Lancashire coast near Southport had some horrible weather.... |

Not really sure why I said Scotland - I knew it was in the UK . . Temporary mind blank. Oh well, no-one clever spotted it!

Shaggy
Jacobsen + 3
Dougherty + 6
Kaymer +7
Casey +12 Total + 28
Donna
Garcia + 5
Els +9
Mickleson +9
Singh +12 Total + 35
Power
Green + 8
Wilson +11
Dyson +12
Kelly +20 Total +51
I guess the only cleaning up on Sunday Dyson will be doing now is in his front room
Looks like Shaggy is gonna win the Bet with the Power & Donna should have 3/4 make the Cut.

Lucky 3rd day for the Power with three of four Shaggy's survivors having a mare. Had written off the fifty quid after all my players were unfortunate enough teeing off early on Thuirsday morning and having to battle a typhoon....as a result 3 out 4 never had a hope and missed the cut.
As it stands going into final round.....
Power
------
Richard Green (Aus) +14
Shaggy
--------
Fredrik Jacobsen (Swe) +12
Paul Casey (Eng) +12
Nick Dougherty (Eng) +15
Martyn Kaymer (Ger) +16
Shaggy has four men standing so has to be odds on still....
Green shot a 64 in the final round last year. How I need him to do it again. Sick thing is, with the current playing conditions, he'd probably go close to winning it...
Greg Norman 1500/1 at the start of the week. Would be magic to see him hold it together tomorrow.
