Just hope someone can stay with him.

Hoping that a few can finish their rounds well, Hatton or Homa maybe. Would love Tommy to have a good tournament.

Trading a golf tournament is akin to a slow motion horse race. If you can get one move right then it's a case of recycling the profits.
It can get tricky though!

Yeah, I’m new to trading so enjoying the exposure to having to sit there with open positions and not jumping in and messing around with your trades.

I quite enjoyed Nick Faldo's punditry - getting inside the mind of a competitor is insightful.

Yes, it's always helpful hearing from people that have actually done it. It can be very insightful. I listen carefully to a lot of Tennis player for this reason.

Funny enough, you don't really get this with Football. Just opinions or hindsight.

What an utterly ridiculous price on Scheffler. Nearly a 50% chance of winning and we’ve barely finished round 1. I tend to run a book on these majors and Scheffler and Dechambeau have been pinged 4 times between them already. If Scheffler wins this front running I’ll post a photo of me naked, with Peter Webb is god written on my chest

Does seem a bit short, but the weather is OK for the remainder of the tournament. Guess we are looking for a mistake.

I concur. Luckily my Bryson backing has more than mitigated my laying at 6s of Scottie, however I still think he's WAY too short with the best part of 70 holes to play and quite a few in contention.

Scotties real strength is avoiding mistakes and plotting his way around Augusta. His putting is definitely not rock solid.

If his career major wins are in the region of 5 or more then he is destined to become one of the best 20 golfers of all time. If he wins two or three its top 87 and top 47 respectively. It seems short at 2.5 but he is that solid that he can tiptoe round here. I would rather back the best of the best rather than lay them. But that's just me. (145 one hit wonders)

Will be electric at the weekend as the wind is due to drop day by day so by Sunday it should be quite benign.

That wind is doing wonders for my book.

2.1 to 3.3 in a few holes. Less than sparkling.
