THE British Masters is played at Walton Heath this week and is hosted by Justin Rose.
Rose along with Ryder Cup heroes Francesco Molinari, Tommy Fleetwood and Thorbjorn Olesen are in the field of 126.
Walton Heath in Surrey is a Par 72 measuring just under 7400 yards where accuracy is essential. This I think plays into the hands of two or three players.
Molinari showed this season in The Open and the Ryder Cup he has the driving accuracy to excel this week. Along with a hot putter I feel he won't be far away again.
Second player I like is Matthew Fitzpatrick, he's only 24 but has already won five times on the Tour. He should love the course this week and is in fine form.
Another player I considered was Lucas Bjerregaard who was unstoppable last Sunday to win the Dunhill Links. He loves the Walton Heath course and has qualified twice for the US Open there. On the downside not many players win back to back but wouldn't rule out a top-10 finish.
Recommended Bets
- Molinari to win 1pt eachway (17-2, Skybet)
- Fitzpatrick to win 1pt eachway (25-1, Skybet)
- Bjerregaard top 10 finish 2pts win (10-3, Unibet)
