John Deere Classic
It was a disappointing week for us at the Rocket Classic as we drew a blank. Four of our five picks made the weekend however in a low scoring event only one of them Cam Champ kept pace. In the end though while a birdie at the 72nd hole from Champ would at least have brought us some returns he finished his week with a bogey.

The Rocket Classic
It was a frustrating week for us at the Travelers as all of our picks played solidly in patches but none could quite do enough to make the frame with the putter a particular source of frustration for Patrick Cantlay over the weekend and infuriatingly to Denny McCarthy on Saturday.
The event itself was won by Keegan Bradley who broke the hearts…
The Travelers Championship
We were treated to a scintillating US Open at Oakmont, which will go down in the memory banks as to one of the most dramatic final days we have witnessed over recent years.
Oakmont lived up to its reputation as one of, if not the, toughest tests on the Major Championship rota with the players struggling to get to grips with the thick rough…
The US Open
It was a poor week for us at the RBC Canadian Open with three of our team missing the cut and only Antoine Rozner ever threatening to get in to the conversation for us. The Frenchman produced a great ‘moving day’ to get in to the fringes of place contention however he stalled on Sunday with a closing 69 and our week was done.
The event itself was won…
RBC Canadian Open
It was a damp squib of a week for us at the Memorial Tournament where in all honesty we were never really at the races.
One of our selections Patrick Cantlay did threaten to limit the damage and bag a place return for us on Sunday however a really poor back nine where his putter deserted him dashed any hopes on that front and we ended up with a…
The Memorial Tournament
For the second week running we were seemingly heading for a blank week but somewhat got out of jail on Sunday. Last week Harris English’s final round heroics at the PGA turned the week in to a profitable one as he bagged us a full place return at 150/1 while this week Harry Hall produced a solid Sunday at Colonial to take a share of sixth place and…
PGA Championship
As regular readers will know I am currently in the US and attended last weeks opposite field Myrtle Beach PGA event. It was a thoroughly enjoyable week despite the rain and the fact that unfortunately we didn’t have any joy with our selections, with the one pick of ours who was in the hunt come Sunday, Danny Walker, having a poor final day.
The event…
The CJ Cup Byron Nelson
It was a week off for us last week as we sat out the Zurich Classic pairs event won by Andrew Novak & Ben Griffin, both of whom had of course been knocking on the door for a while for a break through win.
Talking of which and prior to that though we had a spectacular week as we landed the PGA Tour ‘double’. Firstly at the RBC Heritage Signature…
RBC Heritage
It was an excellent week for us at the Masters as we landed the ‘big fish’ on the opening day courtesy of backing Justin Rose at 70/1 to be round one leader.
The Englishman opened with a scintillating 65 to take a three shot lead on the first day and as know he rode that wave all the way to the end before ultimately missing out in a play off. Add in…
The Masters
It was a profitable week for us at The Valero Texas Open all be it one that could have ended up a whole lot better.
Heading in to the final day our 80/1 pick Tom Hoge sat in third place four off the 54 hole leader Brian Harman, while our 250/1 play Henrik Norlander started the day one shot out of the frame. In the end though it was our third man in the…
