Golf: Klm Open


Recommended Posts

Glory day for Levet? With the USPGA championships just finished, a lot of Europe's elite will be missing from the European Golf Tour this week, meaning the KLM Open field will be a bit weaker than usual. One man though, and top value golf pick, who will be flying back to play the KLM Open will be 1 Thomas Levet, who thrives on this type of course. The KLM OPEN will be played at Kennemer GC in Holland. Kennemer GC is a short, Links Style golf course beside the sea, where the wind is always a factor. Generous enough fairways, although severly undulating, position off the tee is key here to be able to access the pins. Distance control and accurate Irons are crucial to success here and that's why Thomas Levet is a standout pick for the KLM Open. Greens are small and will run pretty slow(10.5), rough is not as big as last year due to dry weather but seriously errant tee shots will leave you in double or even triple bogey territory. Value picks: -1pt E/W Thomas Levet @ 25/1 - Tee shot accuracy, Iron accuracy, distance control, small, slow greens - Thomas Levet must be licking his lips. Won earlier in the year in Spain on a similar set up. Book: Laddys -1pts E/W Chris Wood @ 28/1 - Talented all round game, current form and judging by his Open performance is a fan of links Book: Bfred -1pts E/W John Bickerton @ 66/1 - Big price for a multiple winner on the European golf tour, with course AND current form behind him.Book:Bfred -1pts E/W Marcus Brier @ 40/1 - Great form on this course, loves links golf and been simmering recently after a monster 2 rounds (-16)on a links in qualifying for the British open. Maybe this is the week he gets the shackles off again Book: Sbet

Re: Golf: Klm Open Mods I cant get rid of that bluesquare link, if you could do it for me please,sorry I just did a copy and paste job from my site:) Sleeper watch (big/huge priced value outsiders): Wil Besseling, a recent graduate from the challenge tour where he showed some real talent and has also shown flashes on the main tour this year, is not in the best of form right now(hence some firms going 300/1) but he is the type of player who can find something out of nowhere and by his own admission, being on the main tour is just a dream, so being back in his homeland this week, he may pull something out of the bag. Skybet go 11/1 on a top 20 finish. Jose Manuel Lara has had a decent season and 66/1 means he falls into the 'sleeper' category but he really shouldn't. Some good form this season and has challenged hard a few times, he could very well be a factor on this course. Skybet go 5/2 top 20.
