Bamford Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Riviera Country Club is a classical, tree-lined affair which has received some Tom Fazio updates over the years. The 10th hole is known globally, with the par-4 18th one of the iconic holes of world golf. At 7,300 yards it doesn't seem long, but the par-4s can be stretching and the two par-5s on the backside both play at a snidge below 600 yards. A shot-makers course where strategy and patience are key - even the winners here miss a minimum of 20 greens across the 4 days. So we need players who miss on the right-side and who can scramble well. Add fast poa annua greens to the mix, and you can see why the likes of Webb Simpson stay away from Riviera. Johnson 6/1 Cantlay 18/1 Watson 45/1 Leishman 60/1 Garcia 66/1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owenclass Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Cantlay must have a great chance of winning this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnrobertson Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Yes I agree I am going to stick with Cantlay his approach play has been great just needs to get the putter hot. Cantlay 14/1 Bet365 8 places D Johnston 11/2 Bet365 - Has a brilliant course record and playing the best golf of his life at the moment R McIIroy 12/1 Bet365 8 places - In great consistent form, has good course record 2 top 5. M Leishman 66/1 Unibet 6 places - Another one who likes this course, been playing well lately looks a big price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harry_rag Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Sold Gary Woodland's finishing position at 48 with SPIN. Suggestion is that, whilst he's not back to his best yet, the markets underestimate his prospects on this course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bet was staked to 2 points so a loss of 44 points. Think I'll leave golf alone for the time being! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
