Abu Dhabi Tips: Romain Wattel
Ranked fourth for scoring average last season and has seven top-11 finishes in his last nine starts.
Romain Wattel was a player we tipped on a regular basis in 2014 but it seems bookmakers have short memories because they’ve offered him up at a generous 66/1.
The 24-year-old went close on numerous occasions last season and it’s surely only a matter of time before he bags his maiden European Tour victory.
From September he went on a run of form that read: T11-T9-T5-T9-MC-T4-T6-T11-T36. Hopefully the Christmas break won’t have snapped his momentum.
The young Frenchman has the game for Abu Dhabi; he is long off the tee and ranked an amazing fourth in scoring average last season.
At 66/1 (Bet365) he is a cracking each-way bet with ¼ odds for a top-5 finish.
