Golf Trading on Betfair

Cheers I wish I said I did have. I had the right players but wasn't the case. Odds never dropped into my favour (I messed up my exit) As the rounds scores was going low so when Thomas posted his after the delay he was still very high wasn't getting anything from the cash out. Woke up to see Garcia posting a good score. I wonder what my position would of been after he was leading in the club house. Sadly Hatton looked good on the front 9 and thought he would walk with it. Simpson won on the end a player I went against a couple of times in the 4 rounds he normally has a round progression after putting up such good SG numbers round before. Need to get better trading these markets when you have more than one selection in

Postponed till 2nd April - wonder if they will just pause the odds or refund as could be a great lay

@jarratt-perkins Thats a cracking idea that! Especially if you line up the entry at the harder hole.

If you want to lay Rory then I'd recommend at least waiting until the 3rd hole. The first is a drivable par 4 and the 2nd pretty close to being the same also, so If he picks up a birdie from either of these two holes as he did yesterday then you'll prob be able to lay him odds on.
Personally I'm not laying him atm. Watched his whole round yesterday and he is looking supreme at the moment. Didn't even get too frustrated as he has in the past at missed opportunities (could easily have been 2 or 3 shots better still!), and he is putting brilliantly. Looks a different man since the new season started and I have no doubt he'll win a major or two this year. Have a feeling he may well run away with this tournament start to finish too, but we'll see. good luck all
I agree with him looking a new man... might be his year for the masters!As rule for me anyone leading day one and is under 3.0 I usually lay and keep eye on it... happy to take 25% profit on risk.
I do agree with you in principle and I'd often do the same, just decided not to on this occasion as the man in the lead was the best player on the planet and in imperious form and I think 9 times out of 10 he birdies one of the two opening holes and will therefore be trading lower to be able to lay then if you so wish. Fair play tho, didn't happen on this occasion.
Think he has his best chance at the Masters this year if he can handle the weight of expectation on him more than whether his game is up to it. Should be a good year -
