1. Round 1 18 holes Match-Ups
Ross Fisher vs Lucas Bjerregaard
Winner: Ross Fisher
Odds: 1.80
Both players are in very good form and both are coming after a top 10 finish in the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth. The only reason I bet on Fisher is that I watched him on the Pro-Am today and he played very solid. Holed some monster putts and made a few very impressive approach shots. He loves to play in Italy and the course seems to suit his game.
2. Round 1 18 holes Match-Ups
Tyrrell Hatton vs Andy Sullivan
Winner: Tyrell Hatton
Odds: 1.90
If you look at the numbers Sullivan is the favorite. Hatton missed the cut in his last 2 tournaments and his last top 10 was in Mexico during the WGC. Gardagolf is a course which demands driving accuracy and this might be a problem for Andy Sullivan who had some troubles from the tee during today's Pro-Am. Moreover Hatton is the defending champion and I am pretty sure he will do anything to defend his title.
3. Round 1 18 holes Match-Ups
Matteo Manassero vs Benjamin Hebert
Winner: Matteo Manassero
Odds: 1.90
This is probably the easiest pick for tomorrow. Gardagolf is Manassero's home course. He knows every single angle and lie on this course which gives him huge advantage and makes him the favorite.
