South African Open |
Darren Fichardt |
Fichardt is one of those golfers that you can actually say knows how to win.In good current form with a 4th at the weekend he is an excellent links and wind player who should be able to cope with the tough course.He can also boast 3 top 4 finishes in his last 7 South African Opens |

The Canadian did us a favour in her last Super G in her homeland when 3rd and we really cannot understand these odds as she was 4th in both the Olymic Games and in a World Cup race at the end of last season |

Antoine Deneriaz |
The Olympic Champion has been going well in training - mainly as the hill suits his style of skiing - when you add in the fact that he won here in 02 and 03 then 20/1 is a very big price. |

Alexandre Rocha |
The Brazilian has impressed us in recent months with a 6th in Russia and 8th in Germany - although he just about missed his card he then came out and was jt winner of the Q school.Last week he was very solid in finishing 11th in the Dunhill |

David Drysdale |
Much has been written about the Scots bad luck when losing his card over the last 2 seasons - this time he comfortably regained it at Q school.He also won on the Challenge Tour last season and could be inspired by the win of Quiros last week. He also shown on several occasions he can play on the links and in the wind |

Sam Walker |
Walker certainly has the ability to play links golf as demonstrated by his 6 shot win on the Murcar Links in the summer.The weather forecast says windy throughout and Walker coped better than most around Madeira back in 04 - worth a small nibble at the odds. |

Volvo Asian Masters |
Chinarat Phadungsil |
The teenage Thai phenomenon who is the current Junior World Champion has a great future ahead of him.He won his first Asian tour event in his homeland whilst he was still an amateur where he beat last years Volvo Masters winner Kapur in a playoff.He has gone on to win again this year and cannot go unbacked in his homeland at 3 figure odds. |

Richard Sterne |
We just have a feeling that the young South African could produce a top class finish this week - he certainly seems to have been saving himself with a very limited schedule.He has certainly shown the ability to play links golf in the past and certainly has the talent to win |

We will stick with the man who came 2nd for us last week - these odds are just plain wrong when you consider that he has finished 6th and 7th here in his 3 attempts.We did post 80/1 but that lasted seconds at Ladbrokes. |

We expected much lower odds for the defending champion who was also 8th here the year before.He hasn't played particularly well in Europe but is more at home in Mexico - in the last couple of weeks he has finished 1st and 4th |

Serna won in his home country back in May in a Las Americas event and has been in good recent form on the local circuit with finishes of 2nd and 4th.Top 20 in both his starts here so worth a bet at these odds |

Louis Oosthuizen |
The young South African has endured another poor season on the European tour but then again he did last year but came here and finished 2nd.He was also 2nd at Leopard Creek in 2004 so clearly has an affinity for the place |

Madalitso Muthiya |
The young Zambian has played in 6 South African tour events - mainly his home tournament and has posted a 6th,3rd,4th and 2nd.He managed to get a place at a US college and has actually done quite well - he even made history by qualifying for the US Open and comfortably made the cut at the BC Open.All this adds up to a player who should not be 3 figures for this event |

Alfred Dunhill Championship |
Mattias Eliasson |
To be honest Eliasson has played very little golf since the Spring when he already had easily secured his playing priveleges.Last year he had a solid top 20 finish here in a run of performances where he had 6 top 10's. He can certainly play the course as witnessed by his 3rd rd 65 last year so the 80/1 must be taken |

Andrew McLardy |
McLardy is erratic in his performances to say the least but top 10 finishes at Crans and in Holland read well in this very poor field. Add in the fact he was 3rd in his last South African event and has won and been 4th here in 4 starts then he has to be worth a bet at these odds |
