The Tour moves to Qatar this week and lines up once again at Doha GC. This venue sets up in the usual Middle East style of wide fairways, big greens and an advantage for big hitters. Wind can be a factor on this 7400 yard par 72. Branden Grace is the defending champ.

David Lingmerth | 2pt each way 70-1 | Bet365 |
Finishing position: T13 Back David Lingmerth Again |
David is a quality PGA Tour winner and a class above most in this field on his day. He’s also got a really solid all round game and is an adept wind player. It’s his first look at Doha GC but no doubt he’s got the game to contend here. | |||
George Coetzee | 2pt each way 60-1 | Bet365 |
Finishing position: MC Back George Coetzee Again |
We’re on George for the second week running for similar reasons to last week. He’s a desert specialist who’s coming back into form. His record at Qatar is good with 2-5-12-7 in the last four years. We’re banking on that good play continuing. | |||
Kiradech Aphibarnrat | 2pt each way 50-1 | Bet365 |
Finishing position: T9 Back Kiradech Aphibarnrat Again |
We’re happy to have a small nibble on the burly Bangkok resident this week. Aphibarnrat had a stellar 2015 and is keen to keep that going. The set up this week plays into his hands and he can win on a course at the first look. We’re happy to dismiss 2015’s T38 on course debut before he really caught fire. |
All quoted odds correct as of 16:30 on 23/01/2017. These are obviously subject to fluctuation.
