S.P.Read Esq: The Open (FINAL DAY)

Our daily columnist and pundit S.P. Read Esq. looks ahead to the final day of THE OPEN and finds the best opportunities available on Star Spreads, the home of sports spread betting.

I was tempted to have a few more trades on The Open today but will leave it to fate.

I’m in a great position with my three ante-post trades on the Star Spreads LEADERBOARD 80/40/30/25/20/15/10/5 market (bar Stenson):

BUY SPIETH at 18 for 15 points (buy price now 35)
BUY STENSON at 9 for 15 points (buy price now n/a)
BUY DAY at 6 for 15 points (buy price now 34)

Final groups tee-off times:

1350 Retief Goosen (Rsa), Justin Rose
1400 Sergio Garcia (Spa), Jordan Niebrugge (a) (USA)
1410 Marc Leishman (Aus), Padraig Harrington
1420 Jordan Spieth (USA), Jason Day (Aus)
1430 Louis Oosthuizen (Rsa), Paul Dunne (a)

It’s a massively compact leaderboard so anything could still happen and at the moment it’s those pesky amateurs that are threatening to spoil the party for me. The early evidence is that there are some good scores being made today which hopefully will favour those with experience and take some of the randomness out of the equation.

Still, with the combined forces of Spieth and Day (rated around a even money chance by Star Sports fixed odds that one wins) I’m hopefully in for an exciting afternoon and fingers crossed a profit come around 6.30pm tonight.
