Northern Trust Value Picks
-1pt E/W Mike Weir @ 35/1(Boylesports) As mentioned, Weir won back to back tournaments at Riviera in 03 and 04 in what was then known as the Nissan Open. He finished 6th is his first start of the 2010 season 2 weeks ago and has the perfect game for this course. He obviously knows how to win when he gets in position.
-0.75pts E/W Charles Howell @ 50/1 (ladbrokes) In fine form this season and a winner here before. If he continues playing like this, his next win isn't far away.
-2pts Luke Donald top 10 finish @ 13/2 (stanjames) 5th and 6th last 2 years here and shook off some rustiness last week.
-1.5pts Davis Love top 20 finish @ 16/5(skybet) Not much course form to go on but it's the type of course he loves and he had a top 10 in his last start this season
-1pt Jeff Klauk top 20 finish @ 15/2(skybet) Klauk is the definition of a 'plotter' and could find himself in the mix here, staying away from trouble and picking off birdies
Dubai Desert Classic Value Picks
-1pt E/W Ross Fisher @ 28/1 (sporting bet) Great record on this course, shook off some rust last week and conditions are set to suit him big time. Played with tiger here on this course before and Tiger was very impressed.
-0.75pts E/W Graeme McDowell @50/1 (general) Starting to find his form again and has played well here before. Type of course that should suit and if the wind blows, he'll have an advantage.
-0.75pts E/W Alexander Noren @ 66/1 (ladbrokes) Stepped up a gear after his maiden win last year and if he drives the ball well this week, he can make birdies in bunches. Big value and good place chance if not more.
