Round 1 play (2pts):
Lee Westwood to beat Rory McIlroy +100 @ 5Dimes
McIlroy has said that he was wrong to miss this event last year, but as the World #1 he has to say that. It is not just the fact that he has missed the cut badly in his two previous appearances, averaging 74.00 and failing to break par for any round, it was that last year he admitted "I don't feel that comfortable on the golf course". It has put added pressure on him to perform well on a course on which he never has done, so I'll certainly back Westwood at plus-odds given that he finished 4th here last time (he led after 36 and 54 holes) and in his last three starts, he has finished 3rd, 1st and 5th.
[unofficial rd1 system plays: Stricker tb McIlroy +120; Donald tb McIlroy +110; Mickelson tb McIlroy +133]

Mahan over Day -110 Nothing against Day here, I like Mahan.
Watney over Furyk +120 Taking the plus money in what I think is an even match.

rd 2, playing:
tiger -120 vs rickie
looking for tiger to bounce back a little bit on friday, seems like he got a few bad breaks today - rickie made a couple of really long birdie putts on the front 9 or else he might have shot a couple over par today in his own right
as always, good luck

Round 2 play (4pts):
Ben Curtis to beat Martin Laird -110 @ Paddy Power
Whereas Ian Poulter has a very impressive record when leading an event, Laird does not from so early on: he has held the 1st round lead three times on the PGA and European Tours and shot 74-75-73 to finish the second day outside the top-15 each time. Given that his best finish in this event is 69th and his best finish since February is 24th, he should struggle to maintain yesterday's form and beat Curtis who has made the cut in each of the last four years here and has finished 1st, 13th and 5th in the last three weeks.
