THERE’S not a great field here this week for the the Lyoness Open at the par 72, 7417-yard Diamond Golf Course, Alzenbrugg. This is the seventh year in a row this tournament has been played at the beautiful Austrian course. Greens in regulation, driving accuracy, scrambling and putting, in fact all aspects of the game will be relevant here but GIR […]

FRIENDLIES can never be relied on but I’m pretty sure Scotland will crash to defeat in Metz tonight. Gordon Strachan chose two tough fixtures and I understand why but a weakened side could be embarrassed by the hosts with the most. The French are slight favourites to win Euro 2016 on their home patch and will be determined for a […]

WE’RE still six days away from the start of the Euros but Copa America kicks off late tonight with hosts USA v Colombia. The tournament has been increased to 16 teams with Costa Rica and Paraguay completing the Group A line-up. Jurgen Klinsmann’s men will want to make a flying start but a clash against the section favourites is a […]

THE host for this week’s Nordea Masters is the Robert Trent Jones-designed Stadium Course, at Bro Hof Slott, Stockholm which is now ranked No.2 in Europe, outside the UK. With large bunkers, bigger greens and more water, as well as the wind, to contend with this could turn out to be a close contest. Lee Westwood has won this tournament […]

IT’S back to Jack’s Place for the 41st edition of The Memorial Tournament with the top 75 on the previous PGA Tour money list taking part.

ATLETICO MADRID are out for revenge tonight after losing the Champions League Final to fierce rivals Real two years ago. There’s no doubt Atletico are poor relations in Spain to their city foes and Barcelona so to see them in another final is remarkable. Last time Real blew them away in extra time and it won’t surprise many if we […]

THE final match of the Scottish season takes place on Sunday with Kilmarnock trailing Falkirk 1-0 from the first leg of their Premiership play-off final. After the drama of Saturday’s Scottish Cup Final that saw Hibs salvage something from a potentially horrible campaign what can we expect at Rugby Park? I tipped goals in the first leg and got that […]

EUROPE goes cup final crazy weekend with trophies being handed out in countries such as Spain, Italy, France and Germany. It’s the end of an era for some big-game name players and managers who will want to go out on a high. Take Zlatan Ibrahmovic for example. The Swedish superstar will make his final appearance for PSG in the French […]

KEVIN MORAN, Jose Antonio Reyes and Pablo Zabaleta – that’s the answer to the quiz question which three players have been sent off in an FA Cup Final – and Mark Clattenburg is 4-1 to add to that list in normal time on Saturday. Marouane Fellaini returns from suspension and the big Belgian is bet365’s 9-1 co-favourite of four to […]

THE PGA Tour rolls up to the Four Seasons Resort, Irving, Texas, for the AT&T Byron Nelson Classic which has been a host or co-host for the past 30 years. Ace Venturer says: “Step forward Dustin Johnson whose record here is good (four top-10 finishes from six starts) and has made every cut. His lowest score is 62 on a […]

IT would take a brave man to pick a winner of the Premiership play-off final … Falkirk and Kilmarnock are tough to split and it could be a tie that goes all the way to the death on Sunday. The Bairns battled brilliantly to edge out Hibs in the semis and Killie should push them even harder with players such as Josh […]

THE Irish Open moves around every year and this time it is being staged on the Palmer Ryder Cup Course, The K Club, County Kildare. Ace Venturer says: “The 72-par course is parkland with plenty of water to avoid. For this great track, which hosted the Ryder Cup 10 years ago, I think accuracy, GIR and putting are going to […]

LIVERPOOL have put all their eggs in the Europe League basket so Jurgen Klopp will hope his men strike silver tonight. The German’s had a decent debut season with runs to two finals but in the bread and butter of the Premier League his side weren’t good enough. After knocking out Dortmund Klopp rested players at Bournemouth and later against Swansea, […]

IT was party time on Leicester on Monday as they paraded the trophy through the city centre. And it was party time for many fans who won thousands backing their side at fanciful prices to win the Premier League. William Hill have paid out their final customer who had backed Leicester at 5000-1, taking his total winnings to just over […]

PEP GUARDIOLA will be Manuel Pellegrini’s biggest fan if he hands Man City a farewell gift on Sunday. The minute Pep decided to take the job next season he would have been planning a Champions League assault. But if City lose at Swansea and Man United beat Bournemouth the former Barcelona and Bayern Munich boss will be arriving at a […]

THIS week the European Tour travels to the beautiful island of Mauritius for the AfrAsia Bank Mauritius Open at the Four Seasons Golf course in Anahita, Beau Champs. The Ernie Els-designed track has a stunning backdrop of the mountains and surrounding scenery. This course will suit long-hitters and I’ll be looking at them for my selections. In-form Aussie Scott Hend […]

THE Players’ Championship returns to the awesome TPC Sawgrass with Rory, Jordan, Jason and Rickie and a lot more notables taking part. Justin Rose had a missed cut after his T10 at The Masters but came back with a solo third last week at Wells Fargo. He looked good at Quail Hollow and his GIR stat was over 72% which […]

IT’S D-Day for Newcastle and Norwich and there’s nothing they can do to stop Sunderland sealing their Premier League fate. Sunderland need to beat Everton at send down their biggest rivals as well as Norwich. Sam Allardyce’s men have looked the best of the troubled trio in recent weeks and are the only ones who have a genuine goalscorer in their ranks […]

BIGGEST game of the night is the final one at Upton Park before West Ham move to their new stadium. Man United visit knowing they’ll clinch fourth spot at the expense of Man City if they win their final two matches – and it’s Bournemouth at home on Sunday. The Hammers won’t want to lose – two wins and they’ll […]

IT will be one big party at the King Power tonight as Leicester are handed the Premier League trophy. That’s an intro I never thought I’d be writing and well done to all those who backed the Foxes at silly prices. I’ve been convinced Leicester would be crowned champions for the past few months and profited plenty on them to […]

EVER wondered how bookies are sizing up the weekend card. Here’s the thoughts from inside camps at 188BET and BetVictor. 188Bet focus on the Premiership quarter-final second leg between Hibs and Raith and tip the Easter Road men to overturn to a one-goal deficit. BetVictor concentrate on the Premiership card and are still rueing Leicester’s title win. 188BET TODAY’S second […]

I’VE enjoyed a good week on the Scottish card with wins for the likes of Dundee, Ayr and Raith. I was on Rovers to beat Hibs at 19-5 and took them draw no bet at 12-5 as a Super Single. Monday’s top tip was Dundee -1 and while it never came in I was big on Dundee just to win and I […]

LIVERPOOL need a repeat of their Borussia Dortmund demolition job tonight to progress to the Europe League final. Jurgen Klopp’s side trail Villarreal 1-0 after conceding a late goal last week but matched the La Liga outfit in most departments and played pretty well. The German boss rested key players in the 3-1 defeat at Swansea on Sunday so they’ll […]
