Safeway Open 2017

[LeTiss]

Quite a big price on Webb Simpson on the exchanges, currently being offered at 27.00

He's 3rd favourite and the biggest price available with the bookmakers is 19.00, and a couple of them have even trimmed him into 17.00 this morning.

It's unusual to see one of the market leaders trading at a price 40% above the bookies

[Euler]

Wouldn't a short price on him push some of the other prices out?

[LeTiss]

Yes, but it's unusual to see the 3rd favourite trading at a price so much bigger. You often get 2 or 3 ticks additional value of course, but rarely 10

[Euler]

It is unusual, just wonder if the value was being created elsewhere. Book over rounds on golf can be horrendous.

On another note, with a congested leaderboard likely come Sunday, this is a potentially good market for a Lay The Field strategy.

Last year, same tournament same golf course, five players traded below 2.50 in-play.
