Starts tomorrow! Great group of players. I'm excited for this. Here's how I think the tournament will break down.

1st bracket

2nd bracket

Finals

I just like the way DJ has been playing lately.

Looking back at it, I'd probably have DeLeat beating Day in their matchup. I think the Canadian has been playing better golf as of late.

Also one on one, a lot of people seem to have a tough time defeating Zach Johnson, I considered making him the tournament champ but he hasn't played a tournament in a little while and I think DJ will be in a better mindset.

Yeah this tournament always has a Wednesday start. In regards to your picks: looks like you're a chalk player. ;-)

haha, i actually didn't notice the ranks when I was picking, i noticed after and was like whoa, some surprised me.

But yeah....i play to win :banana:

to be honest I think I'd bet on Gary Woodland vs McDowell. But G Mac is my favorite golfer.

Fowler 3 up on Poulter :dance:

Didn't see that coming considering Poulter LOVES match play and Rickie has been severely struggling.

But I hate Poulter so this his AWESOME

Me thinks there could be some Upsets in this tourney, contrary to what the GC " experts" say. I don't have the slightest idea who's gonna win.

Good to see Ricky playing well.

The "underdogs" are playing extremely well today! I like it, keeps things interesting. Makes me look like a schmuk with my picks though haha

If I said who I "Think" might win, well, lets just say, many, many people would be laughing their rear ends off..

In an attempt to make this thing interesting to myself, I made up a bracket using only coin flips. The final four was to be Lynn, Kirk, Sterne, Wieseberger. (Who did what now?!) So far Lynn is still up on Snedeker. Yay. You heard it here first.

Well, I'm 1/2 Irish, 1/2 Scottish...........so you can guess who I'm rooting for, other than the Americans. :-D

BTW, Rory did come through..:)

WHAT!?!?!?!?

I came home from work and found out G Mac won!!!!

He was 3 down with 3 to go when I left. So far this tournament is amazing. Poulter is gone and McDowell wins in a playoff. PERFECT

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
