We talked about the disastrous game theory used by International captain Trevor Immelman in yesterday’s article, and we saw the ramifications from the plethora of mistakes come to fruition on Thursday, as the USA squad jumped out to a 4-1 lead during foursome action.
In a competition where the chips were already stacked against them from a talent perspective, any small error was always going to get magnified and my model quickly realized that the -195 price that was being offered on FanDuel for the Americans to lead after Thursday was about 105 points off from what it believed to be accurate. With matchups now set for four-ball action on Day 2, let’s see if we can find any similar incongruities in the market.
