Ross Fisher had a good day in Killarney, going round the course in a 4-under 67, which puts him at 9/1 with bet365 to retain his Irish Open crown.
Heavy pre-tournament fav Rory McIlroy looked to be going steady before a double bogey on the last dropped him back to -1, he is still in touch but drops out to 8/1 2nd fav with .
It’s Jeev Milkha Singh who has had the bonanza opening day, going 8-under on round 1; he now leads the betting on 13/2 with Stan James. It’s reasonably uncommon for players to hold a lead throughout an entire event so Singh will be looking over his shoulder at Marcel Siem and Michael Campbell, who are both tied for 2nd on -5. Those two are 35/1 (Blue Square) and 50/1 (Boylesports) respectively, could this be Michael Campbell’s very long awaited to form?
Darren Clarke had a good round of -2, he is still 28/1 (bet365) while Graeme McDowell needs to kick on, he is +1 and 50/1 (Skybet).
