Re: European Tour 2012: BMW PGA Championship *Nicolas Colsaerts e/w @ 50/1 Betfred (6 places)* A tad surprised to see 50/1 available for the Belgian after his gritty success at the Volvo World Matchplay last weekend. He is a much better price that Schwartzel (33/1), McDowell (40/1), Poulter (40/1), and is a far far better price than Justin Rose (22/1), of who he hammered when he beat Justin comfortably in the Volvo last weekend. Matchplay is a different ball-game of course, but i still don't think the price on offer is a fair reflection of his realistic chance here. He also has a 2nd in the Volvo China Open to his name this year, 3rd in the Sicilian Open and 7th in the Spanish Open, he is enjoying a fruitful spell, and is again worth an each-way bet at this price i feel. *Alvaro Quiros e/w @ 100/1 Betfred (6 places)* Again seems to be value here for a man who has won 6 times on the European Tour. It looked like he was coming back to form last weekend in the Volvo World Matchplay where he put up some good performances and got knocked out in the quarter-final's. He finished 18th in this event last year, 16th in 2009, so he has put up some spirited performances in this event. He is an extremely long hitter off the tee, which can only be a positive for him here, and at 100/1 he is worth an each-way bet for me, he looks good value. *Chris Wood e/w @ 150/1 Sportingbet (6 places)* It would not feel right not backing an Englishman at Wentworth, so at a huge price i have plumped for this guy who should be familiar with the surroundings at this course and may outplay his price-tag. He is a capable although unspectacular golfer who can give a very good account of himself from time to time. He was 2nd in the Sicilian Open this year, and last year he hit the woodwork twice finishing 2nd in the African Open and 2nd in the Iberdrola Open. Interestingly, he finished 6th in this tournament in 2010, and if he could put in a performance like that here again this year, 150/1 would look ridiculous.
