Bookmakers ahve gone up with prices for the Alstom Open de France at Le Golf National which gets underway later in the week, and Jean Baptiste-Gonnet appears to have been ignored at a whopping looking 150-1.
French golf is on a high after the news that the 2018 Ryder Cup will be staged at this venue, and the home boys will certainly be out to impress.
Baptiste- Gonnet is a fiery Frenchman who can blow hot and hold, but when he is hot he is capable of playing some brilliant golf.
That was evident last year when he was not at his best for much of the season before putting in two results in his final two events when he made over 78,000 euros to haul himself up to 109th and safety in the Race To Dubai standings.
Reaching that safety net seems to have given Gonnet back his spark, and so far in 2011 he has already bagged three top five finishes in Joburg, Dubai and Morocco.
He certainly has the ability to figure, and if he gets off to a good start his current odds of 150-1 will collapse like a house of cards and put is in a great trading position..
With bookmakers paying 1/4 odds the first five he is certainly worth an each-way puntinplay.
Recommennded bet: 2pts each-way Baptiste-Gonnet (150-1 Sky Bet, Coral Hills - 1/4 odds 1,2,3,4,5)
