You've got me doubting myself, but I'm sure there is quirk with selections at 1000.

I've checked the data back five years or so and it's common, though didn't happen last year.

It might have something to do with a different rule re exposure limit.
I layed a few to lose £20K and my exposure is £20K even though my biggest lost is about £8K.

Y, I queried this with Betfair this week when I saw the same. New policy.

They don't want a situation where someone owes them £1000s but are only allow to deposit £100/month.

Yeah true! Means there's far less people blindly laying the field.
I'm told all 'exposure' will be released once everyone has tee'd off tho.

100.8% book now

I guess people can still do their nuts, but only with the cash balance they hold on their account.

My thought on the lay book was that even if you laid at that % you still have 16 at 1000% that wont match and probably wont match. So it def is a false number. I sort of remember each 1k adds .1 to the value.

Have checked on doubtful starters but don't see any declared.

When I looked the stats he ranked first for carry distance. So, sort of, a big driver.
Really, Peter? 'sort of'?

Rory is now among the very biggest of 'big drivers' if you include the entire range of clubs in the bag. Hell, he can hit a 7 iron 200 yards in the air! Admittedly that's not a 'driver' but as I said his 320 ish average is very close to the very best drivers, even with the LIV players included as they are (at the moment) for Majors. He's widely acknowledged as one of the very longest on tour, right the way through the bag.

I know, I misread the reply to my original post which was misinterpreted in itself. Other than that, everybody was on the same page.

I keep thinking Will Zalatoris will have a breakthrough at some point, but never seems to.
I feel the same about Patrick Cantlay
I felt the same for years about Lee Westwood and Sergio Garcia. So close without cigars on soo many occasions...

Anyone watching the Par 3 tourney? Seamus Power has had TWO hole-in-1s!

I think the key this week will be who is in control on day one and two.

If the weather descends, as expected, then they will just need to play percentage golf to hang on. Difficult to see lower scores over the weekend, especially if they have tricky pin positions.

Will turn some all greens to red.

That's a shame. Had him down to do well.

Would be helpful to have some more information on this sort of thing in the run up to the tournament.
