Dubai World Championship Tips: Charl Schwartzel

Finished fifth in South Africa last week and seems to be running into a bit of form.

After a solid, rather than spectacular season, Charl Schwartzel has started to regain the form that made him the 2011 Masters Champion. 

He built on a solid T16 finish at the BMW Masters, with a 5th place in the South African Open, a tournament he could have won but for a sloppy third round 74. Nevertheless, the signs were encouraging and the Earth Course at Jumeirah Golf Estates is a good fit for his game.

The 28-year-old has steadily improved his results on each visit to Dubai, finishing 5th last year after a T21 in 2010. He has the power to tame a long course as he proved at Augusta and looks overpriced at 30/1 (Sportingbet) with ¼ odds for a top-5 finish.
