Hamilton says that it was a collective decision for him and his team mates to pit as they thought that their rivals had also pitted.

Lewis Hamilton says that he thought Sebastian Vettel and Nico Rosberg were also making pit stop for new tyres in the closing stage of the Monaco GP. This was the major cause for his loss in the Monaco GP.

This formula 1 champion had a clear advantage at the end of the field but making a pit with 13 laps for him to go was a mistake. Hamilton said that a look at one of the side screens on the track made him think that his rivals were also making a pit stop. He said that he relies on the team and when he saw a screen out, he thought that the other racers were also making a stop.

On the other hand, he could not see the guys behind him which made him think that they were also making a pit. His team had asked him to stay out but he thought that his tyres would fall in temperature; they said that he should pit and he was confident that other racers had also made a pit.

Even though Hamilton says he has not contacted the strategists, his team also shoulders the blame as they had miscalculated the gap between Hamilton and the other racers.

Lewis had a flawless drive and made delivery to a perfect weekend with a masterful race and a pole lap. There is not much to this loss but congratulate him for the grace he handled the situation with.

Hamilton came in third behind Rosberg and Vettel even though he had a faster and fresher car; he was unable to go past the Ferrari driver. Overtaking on Monaco is difficult but Ted Kravitz would not comprehend as to why he gave up his track position.

Kravitz said that even if Vettel had made a stop, Mercedes would still have the track position. He believes that track position it king and even when on quicker tyres, Vettel would not be in a position to go past like Hamilton was unable.

Betting on more than you can win

One common mistake would be betting on more than you can possibly win. Most of the bettors betting on golf tournaments will bet on more than one player. They will do this thinking that they will have several rooting interests in the event but when you do this; you might be losing more than you are winning or simply making an unacceptable rate of return.

Placing bets on the big players

Golf is known to be a game of stars and those are the stars that are usually on the headlines. The likes of Tiger Woods, Mickelson, Harrington and Els; these are the players who will always grace the headlines. For this reason, they will draw majority of the action in betting. The odds compilers are aware of this and they will set the odds accordingly which makes it hard for you to find value with this big names than with the less popular but talented golfers.

Not taking the course into consideration

When placing a bet, you need to consider the course they will be playing on. As a bettor, you will have a smaller edge when the greens are hard to hit and small or when the greens are soft and easy for the players to land the ball near the pin. If a player has had a lot of success on the course in his previous games, then he will not have the advantage in case the course is altered and different from the last time he played in it.

With this information in mind and being able to carrying out analysis on not only the popularity or the skills of the player, you will be in a position to make smarter bets on golf than you would in the past.

With UK banks not lending, sports have to be creative on their financial developments. New research from the University of Cambridge proposes that there is a lot of money that is yet to be utilized from supporters.

One scholar who studies alternative finance at Cambridge Judge Business School reported that it would be challenging for sports franchise to access traditional bank loans. A reason as to why banks will not offer a loan to a sports team is because they believe that there is a reputational risk. How does this play along? They say that when you lend to a club and things go wrong, then there will be a problem with the team’s fan base.

A way to raise funds that is becoming popular is crowd funding through the internet and in mini bonds. These are bonds for retail and cannot be resold and are on offer in minimal amounts to the direct clients.

One unique bond of its kind is the £25 million mini bond that was launched by the Jockey Club in 2013. This bond was used in the financing of a new stand at the Cheltenham race course. This is the first bond of its kind to be seen in the British sports world.

Research on this bond revealed that almost all the holders of the bond were fans of Horse racing and that their average age was over 60 years. One amusing thing is that they were diverting their idle money from building societies’ accounts. They got their attraction from the 4.75% interest rate and an additional 3% that was give back through loyalty points which would be offered back on tickets, drinks and food at the racecourses.

One thing that’s important about this Jockey Club is that they have managed to alter the psychological relationship they have with their fans. They have new experiences and they are now in need of more.

Paul Fisher who is the managing director to the Jockey Club Racecourses mentioned in a statement that the loyalty scheme has been a success; even though the interest rates earned from borrowing in the banks might have fallen. With this, it seems that the club would still use mini bonds to develop more courses in the future.

Another club that has followed in the Jockey Club’s footsteps is the Lancashire County Cricket Club that used similar tactics last November to earn themselves 3 million from a mini bond that earned the investors 5% interest rates and 2% on loyalty points. Wasps Rugby Club also sold out a £35 million retail bond after few days of introduction.

This is one interesting way for the clubs to raise money for their development. This shows that you could not only bet on your favourite clubs but you have the chance to invest in the clubs and earn guaranteed money in terms of interest rates and loyalty points bonuses.

This will be the second time that Didier Drogba leaves Chelsea but he hopes coming back on a different capacity. His game with Chelsea against Sunderland is his last with the team. He will not be retiring from football but he will be leaving Stamford Bridge in pursuit of his playing career.

He resumed to Chelsea last summer on a year’s deal and during his term, he has assisted in getting the club a 4^th Premier League title. Drogba believes that he needs to play for another more season but this would feel good for him if he played on a different team.

The 37-year old striker said that he has had dialogue with his manager and the board where they agreed to let him leave since it was up to him to enjoy the pitch more as he wishes. He is happy to know that the club wants him back and be part of the future team in Chelsea and he is pleased of the way they came up with the solution.

Previously, Drogba was in West London where he spent eight years from 2004 to 2012. He won 12 trophies and made one of the best scores against Bayern Munich in The Champions league of 2012.

Before he came back for the second time to Chelsea, he was playing in Turkey and China.

Sources have pointed out that Scott Skiles has emerged as a strong frontrunner in becoming the head coach of Orlando Magic. The general manager to the Magic has carried out discussions on some of the possible candidates but Skiles remains to be the most preferred candidate.

This far, Orlando Magic does not show much inclination into getting a new coach. Sources indicate that soon the team might advance to contract negotiations.

Skiles who is 51 years of age has been a preferred choice to Orlando and the bookies’ favourite. The team has been fond of him since he was playing with them in the 1990s. Skiles is a good fit for the candidacy profile that was privately outlined by Hennigan. They were looking for a coach who has had a successful head-coach experience and have the ability to upgrade Orlando’s defence and accountability.

Skiles has had a successful career with the Phoenix Suns, Milwaukee Bucks and Chicago Bulls. He has worn out his welcome and has only lasted about three seasons with each of these teams. While he coached these teams, he has a record of 443-433 (18-24 playoffs) all these in 13 seasons. Skiles is known in his abilities to assist in turning teams around. He transformed Bulls from a 19 win in 2004 to a 47 win in 2005 in his first of the two seasons he coached the team. During his time in the Bucks, he took the team from 34 wins in 2009 to 46 wins in 2010.

In case Skiles is hired for the job, James Borrego who acted as the interim coach for the team after Jacque Vaughn was fired might be asked to remain as a member of staff acting as an assistant coach. There was a notable improvement under Borrego even though the team finished on their fifth worst record of 25-57.

The Magic organization believes that the team needs to start showing progress in the upcoming season. The expected coaching hire will get the best of the most in Magic’s young members like Aaron Gordon, Nik Vicevic, Victor Oladipo and Elfrid Payton.

Comments from Ben Gordon who was coached by Skiles during his times in Chicago Bulls said that he was tough on young players but it was through this that he became a better player and won his 6^th man of the year award as a rookie.
