Roll on 2022 !

 Another year comes to an end and who would have thought this time last year, we would be going into a third year dealing with COVID-19 and the restrictions, lockdowns and general worry about our ability to stay safe & healthy? On reflection, sport has served us well over the past two years, providing many if us with an escape from the ongoing uncertainties and upheaval in our daily routines. Golf was very lucky on the world stage to be able to function and despite the rescheduling that was forced upon them, the Europeantour did a magnificent job in producing tournaments throughout. If only the local authorities and governments can see sense and keep golf courses open for the members and public alike in 2022 and learn from the mistake that bsaw many courses shut throughout UK & Ireland when there was simply no need for them to be!

It seemed to be a good year for golf tipsters throughout 2021. From my own perspective I had my best year in a long time with a final yield of +364.95 pts

So, on to 2022 where I hope to start getting involved with the Tournament of Champions on the PGA Tour from Hawaii on the 6th January. Let's hope we can go one better than last year where Joaquin Niemann lost out in a playoff, before the DP Tour kicks off in Abu Dhabi on the 20th January.

Until then, Happy Christmas and all the best wishes for a much healthier 2022!

Jo'burg Open 2021 - Firethorn,Randpark GC, Johannesburg

It was a 1-2 in Dubai last week for the blog to add some more profit to the years tally, and the new season commences this week in South Africa with the renewed Joburg Open to be played one again at Randpark GC. but only on the Firethorn Course. 144 players tee it up which makes a welcome change from the 200+ that works have at this event in the past. 

It's a fairly open field and as it's the case with all these co-sanctioned events in South Africa we have to take the chances of the home players seriously as they inevitably always perform strongly on their home soil. Just the two selections for me

1.5 pts e/w George Coetzee @ 25/1 - 8 places

1 pt e/w Daniel Van Tonder @ 50/1 - 8 places 

DP World Tour Championship 2021 - Jumeirah Golf Estates, Earth Course, Dubai, UAE

 Just the selections this week. Very tempted to play Martin Kaymer here but wanted a bit more juice than the best price 75/1

Selections

3 pts WIN Collin Morikawa @ 9/1

1 pt e/w Alexander Bjork @ 100/1 - 7 places
