Scottish Open

I feel Tim Clark could go very close to winning the Barclays Scottish Open golf at Loch lomond, for the second year running.

He is currently in a tie for 7th place, 5 strokes off the lead and hit 15 GIR yesterday in shooting a 67, which could have been even lower. This is a course that suits accurate iron play and that is the South African's forte. Last year, after round 2, he was in a tie for 6th and 3 shots adrift, so not too much difference.

Last week, he had a very nice warm up for this event, a fast finishing 4th in the Western Open, after shooting a fantastic last round , 66, the low score of the day.

If he can sink a few putts over the weekend and he putted VERY well last week, whoever beats him, will win. The fact that fellow South African , Trevor Immelman, won the Western Open will further spur the diminutive Clark.

He is a very nice price and I find it hard to believe that we will not get a great run for our money. Tim should win his 3rd round 2 ball, opponent, Gregory Havret, has a habit of always having one poor round and his only ever win came 5 years ago. However, the odds of 1.61, are a little skinny, so just the outright for me.

2 points ew Tim Clark 15.0 william hill 1/5 odds 1234 scottish open.

Good Luck
