This is incredible. Can Rory still do it… if not, he’ll be damaged by this

I've not cheered a winner so much since John Daly's comeback tour win.

His shot at the 15th was one of the most incredible I've seen.
Put me in mind of some of Seve's shots - almost magic.

I know Rory got as low as 1.04 on betdaq during the round. I didn't check after that as I too went to bed.
Any interesting numbers ?

Well done Rory!
I trade The Masters entirely manually and finished with an all green +905.92 after commission which I felt was OK - what do you do Peter, trade manually or use servants/automation or a combination of those?

In 2024 you made £2175.39 on The Masters as shown in the excellent recent video (link below) - how did you do this year in comparison?

How did others do?

I did a lot better this year, it was a good Masters. Had a bit of everything.

...very well done - I guess you are trading like I am but using larger stakes, plus using a few other strategies! :)

I think I may have been levelling up too soon - I would have probably doubled my green by being more patient in waiting for the market to come to me rather than looking to green each trade sooner rather than later.

I wish I'd made a note of my trading volume and number of matched bets as that would have been interesting.

Well done, gents!

My green was tiny in comparison, but worthwhile for me, particularly as I made a complete pig’s ear of Saturday evening only to bounce back on Sunday.

I’m entirely manual and less prone to embrace risk than both of you, I suspect. I need to up my game!

The winner market during the final round was absolutely fantastic. I think I’ll ask Santa for one of those every day.

...it's easy to make a mess or fire bets in on the wrong player - I did that last year on Aberg for him to then birdie the hole he was playing - I managed to escape without too much pain, but it's easy to do early on with so many players in the mix.

Yeah, definitely. BF reordering the market - lowest to highest prices - every so often doesn't help either. I try to keep the ladder for each player in exactly the same position on the screen irrespective of odds. I learned that the hard way, though, clicking in the wrong place.

Saturday's calamity was different. A small part of it was down to McIlroy's early charge and the sheer volume of money in the market compared to a normal PGA event. But it was mostly the result of holding a position for too long on the basis of incorrect information. Lesson learned.

How do you guys trade golf? Interested to get into that myself but not sure of basic strategy as some of the liabilities can be huge..
