In which I reluctantly back a favourite

Interesting leaderboard in Kenya. Three of the more talented DPWT maidens topping the table ahead of some far more experienced players. We'll know more about Ayora, Jarvis and Bryant on Sunday evening than we do now.

Is there a worse feeling when you can only follow a golf tournament by looking at the scoreboard and live odds than when the odds suddenly lock? Someone has done something spectacular or stupid, and you don't know which, or who.

Is there a more relentlessly miserable media presence than Jonathan Davies? He's been making the six nations just a little bit worse for now than twenty years now.

Three picks, one bonus reserve pick, and some Canada/USA Anderson/Andersen confusion. Still, it's a legit course preview of a Buenos Aires course, so put up with the deliberate mistakes and enjoy.

Always worth a listen, and the Sliced boys are on form this week. I paused learning about the Cuban Missile Crisis and have no regrets. Dive in!

Some interesting additions to the SA Open start list after today's qualifiers. Worth a look, especially with Fantasy or last minute bets in mind. sunshinetour.com

Basically anyone can win this. But I've got three I like. Fun event (whispers: and a much more subtle course than Bay Hill)

From a 96.7% win probability standing on the 16th tee, things unravelled very quickly for Shane Lowry at PGA National. Ben Coley ponders if he'd got ahead of himself.

That hole has a difficult cross wind over the shoulder. Draw with one club less for the right hander. That's a sailing joke.
