early odds on the exchanges
Though we only saw a smattering of his shots at Augusta, Jim Furyk performed admirably in finishing 11th given his limitations off the tee. Jim has been enjoying a welcome return to form of late just missing out in a playoff to Luke Donald at the Transitions three weeks ago. A winner here in 2010, Harbour Town is tailor made for Furyk’s game.
Tied 17th at the Masters but turned a forgettable week into a spectacular one with a terrific final round of 64. Bo has top-10’s already this year in Phoenix, Riviera, Doral and Innisbrook and tied for third here in 2010. Second only to Luke Donald on the PGA Tour for strokes gained on the greens.
Here’s a man that is sure to have a few practice rounds at Harbour Town under his belt by the time the rest of the field get here this week. Called a penalty on himself in a playoff with Jim Furyk two years ago in one of the greatest displays of honesty the PGA Tour has ever seen. Bang in form too with top fives in his last two outings at the Arnold Palmer and Houston Open.
Should have won here back in 2007 but shot a final round 73 to drop to fourth. Top tenned again last year with a round of the day 66 in the final round. Winner of the Shriners last season and already three top fives in this campaign. Tied for 12th at the Masters and gave his own masterclass in the final round with 68. Big chances this week.
A couple of poor performances in Houston and Augusta have blotted Badd’s 2012 copybook somewhat but I still fancy him for a good performance this week. Traditionally plays well around this time of year and this is his type of course. Shot four rounds in 60’s here in 2008 when only Boo Weekley bettered him. An each way shot. If the driver behaves
