Billy Mayfair is the Racing Post selection to win this tournament at a very big 50/1, and he could well go close this week on a course that he clearly loves. This bet is for him to beat Woody Austin over 72 holes.

Mayfair is a fat 50 something american in the form of his long career. His stats are very impressive.

Stats this week are more important than other weeks due to the nature of the course. It is a very tight course where accuracy is the premium requisite, not distance. The fairways are narrow, and the greens small, so you need someone who is an accurate driver of the ball, and can find the dance floor with his approach.

Mayfair is 7th in the driving accuracy stats and 18th in the Greens in regulations (GIR) stats. These 2 combined with his good course form ( 3rd here 2 years ago ), and good recent form ( 4th last time out ) make him an ideal candidate to beat Woody Austin over the 72 holes. Austin is 84th in driving accyracy and 131st on the putts on GIR. He missed the cut in Augusta, and missed the cut here last year.

Mayfair should take this one easily.
