I am going to keep saying it until he wins again: Luke Donald.

He also has gone 290 holes without a 3 putt, for anyone that is interested in boring stats like myself

DJ for me.

Defending champ. Long and straight, wedges are getting better as well as his putter.

Coming off an average display at the Deutsche Bank but gonna pick him anyway

I'm rooting for Steve Stricker. I don't think he was particularly dazzling at Deutsche Bank, but he's been playing well these past few weeks and I really want to see him in the last round. Also, he's the most highly ranked US player on the OWGR (at #4). He's trailed closely by DJ, though, so their spots could switch this week.

The man currently sitting 14th in the standings has four top-five finishes this season, is locked into the Tour Championship no matter what he does this week, and happens to be someone most of the people on this forum have declared to be washed up. Call me crazy, but I'll say Vijay Singh picks up his first win in three years, and puts himself in control of his own destiny for a second FexEx Cup title.

Saw an interesting stat today. Sergio is 7th in scoring average this year with only 3 top 10's. That is great consistency for someone who hasn't looked like winning the whole year. Anyway, I don't expect him to win but I think he'll put up another strong finish and make it to the Tour Championship. As for my pick, I reckon Charl Schwartzel will win.

My pick is after improving a bit after his horror first 5 holes on Thursday

Looks like no Tour Championship for Rickie Fowler yet again this year


Posted

Yes, I'm completely aware Rickie Fowler does not pay attention when he's putting within 6 feet. I'm still gonna stick by and root for him.

Luke Donald looks like the best of my original picks.

    • Day 116 12-6 Still working on getting to lead side. Tonight I also tried some skill work with clubface awareness.  Hit foam balls. 
    • To flog this subject even further, if that's even possible, this article from Golf Monthly just appeared today in one of my news feeds. Written by a golf writer in the UK who I never heard of, he's basically saying that there should be only 3-5 rounds from the most recent 20 that should count towards the average and only competitive rounds should count. He claims the erratic scorers would have less of an advantage than they do now. He makes a lot of references to "club golfers" in the UK being the ones who are mostly dissatisfied. https://share.google/qmZZBEoJvOxHxJGil  In my experience with my league where we have golfers with indexes ranging from 5 to 40, looking at the weekly results from the past two years, I can detect no pattern that would substantiate the claim that the current system gives an unfair advantage to either erratic golfers (aren't we all?) or higher handicappers. Apparently though, at least in the UK, this seems to be "a thing."
