Graham DeLaet – Can he contend again in Texas
“Graham DeLaet’s an immense talent with obvious course form and he could just give us a run for our money at a very big price.”
With Paul Krishnamurty resting up ahead of next week's US Masters, Steve Rawlings, aka The Punter, continues the search for a monster-priced winner
With a profit of 52 units already this year, stepping into Paul's shoes, even just for one week, is no envious task. Even though he hasn't had a winner yet in 2012, he's still amassed a very tidy sum, demonstrating the power of the pink button. This column is all about getting big-priced selections into contention and making profits by laying them back. I've picked out one selection at each of the week's two events in an attempt to do just that.
With a new venue and a weak looking field, a shock winner of the Sicilian Open is certainly not out of the question and I fancy James Morrison is the best priced outsider in the field. Let's hope he's the one to produce the surprise.
The 2010 Madeira Islands Open winner enjoyed a fair finish to last season, contending in a number of events, with a third placed finish at the Iskandar Johor Open in November the highlight. He's started 2012 slowly but he showed an upturn in fortunes at last week's Tophee Hassan II where after a dreadful start (nine over par through just six holes!), he played quite well.
I fancy this week's links course will suit James and at [160.0] he looks over-priced.
At the Shell Houston Open I'm going to rely on someone who very nearly pulled off a monster win for me two years ago.
Graham DeLaet played most of the 2010 season with a bulging disc but still managed third place here (missing out on the playoff by just one stroke). The back injury worsened at the end of the year when the disc became herniated. Surgery last January virtually put paid to 2011 in its entirety and only now is he starting to play with regularity.
He's an immense talent with obvious course form and he could just give us a run for our money at a very big price.
