Ockie Strydom. 175/1. Another winner. Come on!
The form of Weekly Golf Value has, for the last few weeks, been nothing short of phenomenal. And miraculous. Miraculomenal. Phenomenulous.
The value perceived in the selection was such that a nice stake was wagered, and boy did it deliver. Looks like the kids can have Christmas presents after all (although only if I hear they’ve got me something decent!). Talk about ending the year on a high. Just one more tournament this year remains, and we’ll be betting on it, but even if it’s a blow out the year has been a vintage one for WGV. My ROI is now sitting at 47%, which kinda says it all.
Let’s not get carried away though. As the email that went out to members today stated, rather sensibly, that what we’ve seen across the last month or so has simply been positive variance. We has a long spell in the year when we merely stood still, and we had out blank tournaments. But just as we have to ride out these periods, so we must enjoy the good spells, accept there will be far less successful periods ahead, but as ever the long term we’ll be fine.
Which obviously I agree with 100%. That said, it’ll be a decent bottle of Champers we’ll open on Christmas Day, and the whole family will raise a toast to Bookie Bashing.
Elsewhere and Golf Insider got a couple to place but as has seemed to be the case recently, not at odds that reward us with an overall profit. And just two picks from PGA Profit, neither of which made the frame.
