Honestly I don't think this is a good pairing for Jordan.

Honestly I don't think this is a good pairing for Jordan.

You could be right, but he looked really good here last year in the first couple rounds.

I picked Jordan.

I voted McIlroy.

No good reason.

I voted for Rory, but… I didn't invest a lot of thought. Rory tends to play well when on form. He just won.

I'm going with Spieth because Rory struggled a bit with the driver last week and Sawgrass isn't as forgiving off the tee as Harding.

I voted Rory. He's seem to be getting better and better with each round. Jordan looks to be regressing a bit from his Masters outlier performance.

No personal preference.   I voted for Rory b/c he just won a tournament and may carry that to the tournament.

It's a close call, and should be a classic match-up.......cue the kiss of death and both miss the cut! Rory to come out on top, because as others have said, when he's on it, nobody comes close to competing with him.

Rory, because he has made a lot more birdies here last couple of years at Sawgrass and he is in form.

I voted Rory because I'm a McIlroy homer. :-P On any given day it's a toss up between them, but if they are both bringing their A game Rory comes out on top. Speith's A game is spectacular, but Rory's A game is otherworldly.

Speith's A game is spectacular, but Rory's A game is otherworldly.

IMO - this is true - but Speith's regular game is closer to his A game at all times

tough pick

I hope playing together motivates them both to whatever their next level is.  I wouldn't be surprised to see them both just leave the rest of the field in the dust.

Only one other golfer has an A game as good as Rory's A game - and he hasn't shown it for years.

Agree 100% about the gap between Speith's regular game and A game being much tighter. Very consistent player and that'll serve him well throughout his career.

Rory wins the pic battle but Jordan will beat him on the course.
