Not a bad start at all today. Let's break it down real quick. (Also - as an aside.. I know I still need to provide a final breakdown for last week's action where I lost -.25u. It also has yet to be reflected in my stats. I'll have that all squared away by tomorrow morning. My apologies on the delay.)
Prop plays went 2-1 today for +.55u. McIlroy and Garcia pretty easily bested the 70.5 line - and McDowell actually was looking good after playing the front 9, which is the harder 9, in -1. But a quick double bogey on the reachable Par 5 10th seemed to throw him off, and alas was our only loss on the day.
First Rounders went 2-0 for +2.45u - and it wasn't even close! Tiger beat Phil by 5, and McIlroy smoked Rose by a half dozen! Yes!
So that left our day 1 total at 4-1 for +3u. Again - not too shabby!
The big 'Make the Cut' parlay always has to have one party pooper - and that was GMac today. Everyone else is in great shape to make the weekend. Need GMac to battle back, as he is currently 1 shot back of the cut line. But with bad weather likely tomorrow, I think a 72 or better should get him thru.
On the 72h plays we are up in 2 (Westwood +5 over Bubba and Bjorn +3 over Poulter) and down in 1 (Donaldson shot 79 but is only down 3 to Webb). Tomorrow could be a big day here as the 3 opponents struggled heavily today. Only time will tell.
And now on to our futures, which are looking great. Garcia (-4), Fowler (-3), Tiger (-3) and DJ (-1) are all in great to good positions... Again the only issue was GMac (+2). But overall I couldn't be happier with where we stand.
Already been doing some work on tomorrow. It's looking like I may target PM v AM plays, and not vice versa as is the norm. I tweeted out a picture of the forecast a couple hours ago, so hopefully some of you all were able to catch that. It appears stronger wind and higher rain %s are the story tomorrow AM - then yielding to what might be some ideal conditions in the late afternoon. This bodes really well for a lot of our players.
So I'll be back with action tonight.
Hope you all were able to make a few $$$ today!
