Villegas for victory in Boston
Wednesday, August 27th, 2008Exciting Colombian Camilio Villegas, at golf odds of 33/1, is our headline tip for this week´s Deutsche Bank Championship in Boston.
The yoga practising player continues to improve with $1.5 million already banked in prize money this term and his record at TPC Boston is very useful.
His two best finishes from three visits are a 12th and a 9th (last year that included a stunning 63).
The attacking lay out clearly suits his game and it would come as little surprise if he were to claim his maiden Tour win here.
Incidentally, Villegas warmed up for this event by claiming the charitable Notah Begay III Foundation Chip In Challenge at Turning Stone Resort’s Atunyote Golf Club earlier this week.
TPC Boston features wide fairways that really suit the longer divers who on tighter tracks struggle for accuracy. Every man in last year´s top 10 drove the ball an average of 287 yards or further off the tee over the four days.
Our previous selection Villegas fits that bill and so does big hitting Argie Angel Cabrera. The 2007 US Open champ has re-found some much needed consistency with three consecutive cuts made and has all the attributes to succeed around the par 71 track.
His debut 23rd last year was achieved with a nightmare final round of 75 and he looks a cracking bet at 50/1 with totesport online betting.
Finally, have a saver on Fijian Vijay Singh. He won last week´s Barclays and is a man to follow now he has regained the winning habit. At 14/1 he´s far better value than co-faves Phil Mickelson and Sergio Garcia.
