Players Championship 13

There have been 15 withdrawals from players championship 13, including 7 of 8 premier league players, and a handful of other seeded threats.

Whilst it is easy to see how this makes it an even easier title than usual for Nijman, with so many big threats not in the field, the way towards the title will be that bit easier for some of the bigger priced players. And some of them should not be the prices they are. So it’s more tips than usual today. Some safer, some higher priced, all value.

3 points Nijman at 7/1

2 points Wade at 25/1

3 points e/w 1/2 2 Doets at 25/1

1.5 points Ratajski at 40/1

1 point e/w 1/2 Soutar at 100/1

1 point e/w 1/4 4 Hunt at 500/1

1 point e/w Bissell 1/4 4 at 275/1

1 point e/w Merkx 1/4 4 at 500/1

The draw could have been kinder frankly, but these players in their current form all have a chance of going deep in this tournament.
