Hennie Playing On Otto-Pilot
In great form; hasn't finished outside the top-25 in his last six tournaments.
Hennie Otto is in such a rich vein of form there is a danger he falls over the line and actually wins one of these big tournaments.
In his last seven starts the South African has finished T26-T8-T12-T6-T2-T24-T19, shooting only two rounds over par during that period.
The 37-year-old doesn’t have a particularly good record in Qatar, four missed cuts in seven starts, but he did finish 12th in 2009 and I doubt he’s ever arrived in better form.
At 125/1 (Betfred) he rates as an exceptional each-way bet with ¼ odds for a top-5 finish.
