The selections
£2 e/w D.Johnson at 14/1
£1 e/w Mickelson at 25/1
£1 e/w Fowler at 33/1
£1 e/w Casey at 55/1
Placed by: P
Report:
All four selections made the cut - Johnson and Casey at -7, Mickelson at -6 and Fowler at a disappointing +1. Each way money looking the best hope though as Jordan Spieth goes into the weekend at -14.
Saturday is moving day and Mickelson closed to five shots of the leader and is third. Johnson and Casey went backwards though and have work to do to finish in the top five.
Spieth finished a four shot winner with Mickelson picking up our each way money for tied second. Casey and Johnson were just outside the money tied for sixth and Fowler tied for 12th.
Pick up: £7.25

26 September - The Ryder Cup
The Bet:
USA - £10 at 7/4
Placed by: K
Kevin thinking win-win here.
The morning fourballs eventually went USA's way 2.5 to 1.5 after Europe made a great start.
Europe dominated Friday's foursomes and ended day one 5-3 to the good.
Saturday was a carbon copy of day one. USA took the morning session 2.5 to 1.5 to reduce the deficit but it was Europe's afternoon in the foursomes, again by 3-1, to close 10-6 up with just the singles to follow.
The singles started with the USA looking set to make it a close finish but the European team gradually got on top and closed out a 16.5 - 11.5 victory.

Placed by K
Sergio Garcia £2 e/w @ 18/1
Rickie Fowler £2 e/w @ 22/1
Justin Rose £1 e/w @ 16/1
Henrik Stenson £1 e/w @ 25/1
Total Stake £12
Information: While Rory McIlroy lifted another trophy we had plenty of interest going into the last day. Henrik Stenson's 66 left him two behind the winner and a 68 from Fowler left him on the same mark.
A slow start from Rose meant his weekend pair of 67s weren't enough to get in the shake-up while a closing 73 ended any chance of Garcia getting in the money.
Still, that's another £20.25 in the win pot.

Henrik Stenson £2 e/w @ 16/1
Graeme McDowell £2 e/w @ 25/1
Rickie Fowler £1 e/w @ 35/1
Hunter Mahan £1 e/w @ 80/1
Total Stake £12
Information: Some of our selections were caught out by traditional British Open weather so Rickie Fowler was our main hope going into the final day. The American shot an excellent five under par round but Rory McIlroy had enough of a cushion to win by two strokes. Graeme McDowell also shot a last day 67 but a poor start to the tournament meant he finished ninth.
All the same, Fowler's result brings us £9.75.

12 June - World Cup
The Bets
£5 Fred @22/1 for top scorer
£2.50 e/w France @ 16/1 to win
Placed by: P
Information
Fred's contribution in the first game was to dive outrageously for a Brazil penalty. This bet already looks lost.
That dive was more than he managed in the game against Mexico where he wandered around, got caught offside several times and was subbed after 67 minutes.
France started with a comfortable 3-0 win over Honduras and followed that up with an even more impressive 5-2 victory against Switzerland.
