Simon Holden Golf Preview for Tournaments Beginning November 25th
Golf is the ultimate 4 day wagering adventure and a Betting Bank of 200 points should be used with double points staked on the Star pick each event. This week the European Tour soon to be the DP World Tour heads to South Africa. Sadly, no PGA Tour this week.
European Tour
The Joburg Open @ Firethorn
Classic South African layout firm and fast but if you keep the ball in play there are opportunities to score here.
Selections
Win @ Place Brandon Stone +3000
Local hero Stone is the man to beat here for me and yes he has not had his strongest season ever but back on home soil he seems a 3 shot a round better player. He will be fully focussed and is determined to have a strong Winter. Has every shot needed to go low here.
Win @ Place George Coetzee +3300
Another local hero Coetzee hits the ball low and has a terrific short game and Firethorn could well be the perfect set up. Like Stone he has not got the most out of his talent yet and he will be keen for a good South African Winter Swing.
Win @ Place David Drysdale +15000
Drysdale is a huge price here for a player who has played consistently well with top 20 finishes in much deeper fields than this. He will love the prevailing conditions and is an excellent driver of the golf ball. Much bigger chance than the odds suggest.
As always, it will be one hell of a ride!
