Further outright play (total stake: 1pt)
Robert Garrigus to win 100/1 e.w. @ Coral
Had been hoping to find either 100/1 available on Garrigus or six places at 80/1 and both arrived on Tuesday, so will opt for the former. Not only does this course set up well for the big-hitting Garrigus and the fact that his 3rd place finish last week took him off the 'bubble', but there is a local connection that is very strong. He is a Gilbert resident and so lives just a few miles from the course, plus he has played the course about 50 times dating back to his days playing for Scottsdale Community College. When the course is being used for the first time on Tour, such home advantage is particularly strong. In fact, he is now so confident after last week's event that he is aiming to lift himself into the top-70 on the Money List (currently 77th) in order to gain entry into the Invitational events next year. If he is to succeed in that aim, this week looks his best opportunity to gain another high finish.
