Open Golf – The cut
If the contenders thought the first day was tough then day two was tougher. Only ten players out of 156 starters managed to get to the cut at par or better.
My favourite was Jimenez, it would be great if a Cigar smoking, wine swilling 49 year old won a top level sports event! I made something so far, but not a great deal. When Woods is at short odds and getting shorter it limits what you can get from the rest of the book and when you play on Woods you narrow your focus too much. So a profit, but not a big one, I’ll take it!
