The BMW Masters presents a very strong field for this event staged in Shanghai, China. The course at Lake Malaren GC is a long 7600 yard par 72 that clearly favours longer hitters, although the fairways were narrowed a little in 2013. The defending champion is Gonzalo Fernandez Castano who won last year with a relatively high total of -11.
Name | Odds | Bookmaker | |
---|---|---|---|
Thongchai Jaidee | 2pt each way 33-1 | Bet365 |
Finishing position: T28 Back Thongchai Jaidee Again |
Thongchai has had a decent year and as usual reserves his best form for events away from mainland Europe. He’s the kind of player who can pop up almost anywhere but BMW form of 16-2 is pretty good and there’s no doubt he can pop up in contention again this year. | |||
Romain Wattel | 2pt each way 40-1 | Bet365 |
Finishing position: T6 Back Romain Wattel Again |
We’re happy to go on Romain Wattel again this week having rewarded our followers with a 40-1 place win in Portugal a few weeks ago. There aren’t many in this field playing as well as the talented Frenchman. His long hitting should suit the course well and we’re backing him to have another good week. | |||
Rafael Cabrera-Bello | 2pt each way 66-1 | Bet365 |
Finishing position: T64 Back Rafael Cabrera-Bello Again |
We’re having another nibble at our old friend Rafa Cabrera Bello this week. He’s had a great season and the open and fairly long. The course clearly favours long hitters and he’s rewarded our followers with a couple of place wins this season and we’re happy to take these odds. |
All quoted odds correct as of 16:00 on 28/10/2014. These are obviously subject to fluctuation.
