PREVIEW
Our pick yesterday, Hunter Mahan, finished with a flurry of birdies in an eight-under-par 64 to seize the halfway lead in the RBC Canadian Open.
His fellow American John Merrick had set the clubhouse lead on 11-under 133 after a magical 10-under 62 that contained an eagle and eight birdies, but Mahan jumped into a two-shot advantage after following up his opening 67 in style.
The 31-year-old Mahan had a ninth-placed finish at the Open Championship last week and the five-time winner on the PGA Tour gave himself another excellent chance to contend for silverware this weekend.
He birdied two, three, four, 11 and 13 before finishing with gains at each of the last three holes.
On a leaderboard dominated by players from the United States, Bubba Watson occupied third position on nine under after bettering his opening 68 by one shot, while a pair of 68s have put Patrick Reed on eight under. Australian Aaron Baddeley has also had two rounds of 68 so far.
Yesterday’s bet is copied below. We’ll hold our nerve and hope Mahan does this same today. But it’s a tempter to trade out and at least get your stake back if you followed us in.
