Buick Invitational

With Tiger out and Phil laying an egg last week who do you think is going to pull it out this week. I know he is not a long hitter but I sure would like to see Fred Couples pull one out this week.

Look for Tommy Gainey to build on his remarkable 2008 season-ending 2d place Ginns nose out by Davis Love by starting 2009 with a big finish at Toerry Pines.

Just kidding - but, he IS in the field.

Not sure who to bank on this week due to Phil's issues last week, but it is a long hitters course where putting is not as big a deal as some courses. Look for someone like Camillo to do well. Scott Piercy from last week might be worth watching if he can hit the ball like the did at the FBR.

Ryuji Imada. He won B-flight here last year, and with the entire A-Flight from last year's tournament (Tiger Woods) absent this year, I think he can do well. Win #2 for Ryuji Imada.

After last week's nuclear melt-down, I think JB Holmes is going to have something to prove.

But boy howdy, I'd like to see Freddy playing late Sunday afternoon!

[Hitman]

I don't know if he will be in the field, but I think the guy that really showed alot last time around Toerry Pines was Rocko Medeate, and I wouldn't count him out. Then one other player I always think has a chance any time he tee's it up is Anthony Kim. And without a doubt Freddie lifting the trophy would be great to see.

[Hitman]

Well I guess I should check the field Before I post as two of my picks aren't playing. So I'd go with Padraig Harrington, to take up right where he left off last season in the Fed Ex Cup, but still Fred........

Rocco is out on medical ; neither AK nor Kenny Perry are playing. The full field is available at http://www.pgatour.com/tournaments/r004/field.html .

I wanted to see AK bad! Sucks he's not going to be there.

Just follow Mickelson instead - you probably will see some creative shotmaking

, at least for 2 days, if he cant step it up from last week. BTW - its a pretty weak field, just 3 players from the Top20 Rankings (Mickelson, Harrington, Villegas). Where are all the other guys?

[Titleist Man]

Zach Johnson!!!!

[JonnyGolf]

what is going on Paddy's face? Did he lose a fight?

[4ringslvr]

He had some non cancerous lesions removed about 10 days ago
