Round 1 plays (1pt):
Parker McLachlin to beat Corey Pavin -115 @ Five Dimes
McLachlin has been very consistent this year with finishes of 10th, 29th and 14th and finished 18th on this course last year; Pavin has been consistently poor apart from the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am and is making his course debut his week
Chris Riley to beat Jon Mills -115 @ Five Dimes
Riley also finished in the top-20 last year whereas his opponent is making his debut, but the extra angle is the Hilton Head factor: a lot of comparisons have been drawn between this course and Hilton Head and so Riley's good performance last year was no surprise - he has missed the cut only once there and finished 3rd in 2003
Daisuke Maruyama to beat Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano -120 @ Five Dimes
GFC simply doesn't travel well, or at least the U.S. - in four starts in this country he has three missed cuts and in the fourth, he finished 2nd-last in a no-cut WGC event
Esteban Toledo to beat John Daly -140 @ Five Dimes
Home player with motivation against a player famous for a lack of it when things go wrong. Daly ranks 207th in 1st round scoring average over the past 12 months and this is not a course that should suit
