Here's how this will work. Copy and paste the text here between the lines, and fill out your guesses at who will win each of the six events listed:

Players: 
Masters: 
PGA Championship: 
U.S. Open: 
British Open: 
FedExCup:

Fill in the first and last name of the player who is going to win each event and put their winning score in parentheses. Like this:

Tournament: John Doe (-11).

If anyone gets all six correct… I'll see what we can arrange as a prize. 🙂

Well, the original post says their scores too.  ;-) Which would be tough for FedEx Cup in particular, do we mean their net score at the Tour Championship?

Driver:  Titleist 915D2.  4-wood:  Titleist 917F2.  Titleist TS2 19 degree hybrid.  Another hybrid in here too.  Irons 5-U, Ping G400.  Wedges negotiable (currently 54 degree Cleveland, 58 degree Titleist) Edel putter.

Since that's how it was in 2019 and will be in 2020, yeah.

Needs a score there.

You too @boogielicious. 🙂

The FedExCup is also the Tour Championship winner, so they get a score in 2019 and beyond (until it changes again).

Yeah - there are more players than lotto numbers (but all players do not have the same odds), but this is like picking the lotto and having to get the numbers drawn in the correct order.
All that said, here goes nothing (literally) 

Players: Xander Schauffele  -14
Masters: Justin Thomas -12
PGA Championship: Jon Rahm -16
U.S. Open: Brooks Koepka - 3 (presuming they play Winged Foot as a par 70 for the US Open)
British Open:  Louis Oostehiuzen - 9
FedExCup: Tony Finau - -17 (this includes the "handicap" right?)

Players play, tough players win!

      Mizuno Jpx One Driver & Fairway Woods

      By M2R · Posted

      I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
