Outright plays (1.5pts):
Lorena Ochoa to win 20/1 e.w. @ William Hill and Ladbrokes
Sorenstam may be trying for a three-peat, but the value lies in players like Ochoa who have finished in the top-10 in six of the last seven starts, winning once in that stretch. She gained course experience with a top-20 finish last year and will surely finish much higher this time around.
Becky Morgan to win 40/1 e.w. @ William Hill
Morgan's form has been almost as impressive, particularly for someone at twice Ochoa's odds. She has finished in the top-20 in six of eight starts this year and in the top-3 twice last month. She played well when in contention for the Chick-fil-A Charity Championship to finish 2nd, but fell back to 3rd in the Sybase Big Apple Classic after leading the event after the 2nd and 3rd rounds. However this was the first time that she had been leading with one round to play. A 3rd place finish last year is also supportive at these odds.
Shi Hyun Ahn to finish in the top-five 8/1 @ Five Dimes
Struggled with her putting last week despite the top-five finish, so if she can improve in this department she should certainly be back in contention this week. Has played each week with no course experience, but has still recorded three top-5 finishes in eight starts and that makes these odds look rather generous.
