Don't think many play here, but, I like Stephen Ames over anyone they have him matched with.

Can we get some odds? Surely you aren't saying to take these regardless of the odds offered.

I assume you also mean at any odds, correct?

Re: golf matchups
 

Each book has different matchups, odds usually in the -30 to +20 range, he WILL finish in top 10.

singh -170
waldorf +115
dimarco -130
kaye -140

if you haven't taken a look at golf you need to. And unless these really change, you take them no matter what, a win is a win.
Here is my reasoning:

Singh is a two-time champ here and the
money line just begs you to take Arizona's
favorite son Phil Mickelson. I'm not falling for that. Singh came in third last year and eighth place in 2002. Singh's fourth round average score here is a record 66 strokes. Singh has finished in the top ten in 80% of his last ten tournaments. The only player that has a better top-ten record is Tiger Woods

Duffy is my sleeper this week. I released Waldorf just one time last season. I like his past performances on this track. He's posted three top-tens the last five at this venue

dimarco - His last four starts here have been (on average) better than anyone in the field. He's put up a second, a win, fourteenth and fifth. He's posted only one round over 70 (71 in 2002) in his last four at Phoenix.


Kaye won here last year while posting some amazing numbers. Kaye was successful on the crucial putts of 4-8 feet, where he made 86.7 percent to rank eighth in the event, Kaye was deadly when it came to making putts longer than 10 feet. He made 60 percent of his putts from 10-15 feet to rank third and holed an incredible 57.1 percent of those from 15-20 feet, which led the field. Over the last three rounds, Kaye missed just one putt from inside 10 feet, and he averaged just 12.67 putts on the pivotal back nine during the final 54 holes. Kaye averaged 2.81 on the par 3s, 3.84 on the par 4s and 4.33 on the par 5s to rank in the top eight in each category. This tournament has a history of past winners doing well and has more multiple winners than any other event on the schedule.

I like your picks except Waldorf.
