Last night’s golf made for painful viewing. I’m not complaining. We’ve had a fair share of good fortune this year betting on the golf. If I’m to celebrate a win that was in large part down to a runaway leader having to withdraw due to a positive Covid test prior to the last round, then it would be churlish in the extreme to moan about having a player beaten in a three-way play off, as happened last night.
The agonizing part though was seeing Troy Merritt (PGA Profit) and Joaquin Niemann (Weekly Golf Value) on the last green together, each with a putt that would have won them the championship. Each missing by a combined distance of about a foot, was irritating to say the least.
The whole last day was a frustrating one. How Weekly Golf Value ended up making a loss on the week after having several golfers in real contention going into the last day both in Europe and the States, I don’t really know. It took some doing. I guess this is the ying to previous week’s yang. Somebody has upset the golfing Gods, and if I had to put money on it (assuming the price on offer represented value, of course) I think I’d put it on being a Weekly Golf Value subscriber.
