Here are my predictions for the PGA. Be sure to add your own in the format that the staff use!

Thoughts on the Course

Medinah is a long, tight venue. I don't see a super low winning score, but the rough isn't very thick, so I could be wrong. I doubt that we will have a Tiger/Sergio type of duel this year.

Winner and Score

The smart money is on Tiger. I'm smart, so I pick Tiger Woods at -8. He has been the best player in the world for a decade, but for the past year and half, he hasn't been the hottest player. That, of course, was Phil Mickelson. He just has good vibes from this venue, and Phil's stuck in a rut right now. Tiger makes it boring down the strech, winning by two.

Dark-Horse Winner

I'm going to pick Trevor Immelman. He has enough length to play well around Medinah and he can get the putter hot. I'm going to make a future prediction and say he wins again before the end of '06.

Biggest Disappointment

Tiger misses the fairway on the first tee all four days. He then goes on to birdie it two out of four days. In terms of people, I'll go out on a wild limb and say that Colin Montgomrie, Sergio Garcia, and new Euro star Johan Edfors all miss the cut.

Largest Surprise

Several club pros qualify to play, and several of them make the cut. One gives a surge on the back nine to slide into the top 20.

After reading the following article I'd like to see Padraig Harrington win it all.

Prediction= Tiger
A comment That Tiger made today on the Golf Channel made me admire him even more. A gentleman asked if he had heard Dave Pelz's comment in the tribune today. Tiger said "No I haven't" with a curious look on his face. The guy said "It said that Dave Pelz commented on that Phil was impossible to beat when he was playing his best, what are your thoughts on that Tiger?" Tiger said, "I'm pretty hard to beat when i play well too." with a smile on his face.

Yeah Tiger is the one to beat but I think the only one who has a chance to do it is Phill.This course is so long it will come down to putting because they will all be hitting semi long clubs into greens that are large.I see many 3 putts from the shorter hitters.I will say Phill at -6 over Tiger at -4.

Course
All the players are saying it doesn't really play that long. Not many holes at the extremes, very short or very long.

Winner and score
Tiger, 10 under

It is not a matter of who comes first at medinah, Tigers already got that wrapped up. The most interesting position will be Second place spot. I fancy Vijay Singh to be dragged by the edge of Tiger Woods Coat into second spot at medinah

Pelz is wildy drunk.

I think it was a banned substance.

I'm all for having confidence in your guy, but good grief. Don't give Tiger any more motivation than he needs. Which brings us back to topic... Tiger (-12) Yes Tiger, when you are on top of your game you are hard to beat as well.

Fairways and Greens.

Dave
