Pretty much a regular
Rory Mcilroy ov Jordan Spieth
Since the Masters, Spieth’s favorite tournament, he’s had the putting woes, and he hasn’t been great. No top 20s since the Masters, 41st, 21st and 32nd, and I’m watching him play, and he’s struggling. His putting has been his achilles heel, and I need to see it fixed before I believe it. Rory has been up and down this year, but he had a 16th at the Wells Fargo, and a 5th at The Masters, and I actually like what happened to him last week. He was in a position to win, didn’t, and expressed frustration after not closing. I think he’s really motivated this week, I think he’s going to push extra hard for a win, so I’ll take the very motivated Mcilroy ov the struggling Spieth.
Beyong Hun An ov Aaron Wise
We said last week Aaron Wise would struggle after his first win, and he did. He missed the cut. So I’m fading him again this week. Hun An has been sneaky good. Hasn’t missed the cut in his last 6 tournaments, and even has 3 top 15’s in that span. He also likes this tournament…he’s played here twice, finished 25th, and 11th both times.
Charley Hoffman ov Gary Woodland
I know we made fun of Hoffman earlier, and he hasn’t been fantastic with only 2 top 15 finishes in 2018, but he’s been waaaay better than Gary Woodland. Since his win, he’s played in 7 tournaments, and missed the cut in 5 of them, and finished 49th, and 50th in the other two. He’s got 4 straight missed cuts, and hasn’t finished under par in 6 straight tournaments. Hoffman at least makes the cut. And in typical Charley Hoffman fashion, he’s decent not great at this tournament…makes the cut, but doesn’t do much with it.
Chris Kirk ov Cameron Smith
Cameron Smith was having a really impressive year..and then the Zurich Classic happened. Not sure if there’s an injury or what, but he missed the cut at the Zurich, then shot +7 and +13 at The Players and The Fort Worth Invitational. So the last two tournaments, he’s been awful. Kirk has been shockingly good this year, hasn’t missed the cut since the Houston Open the first week of April, and even finished 11th at the Fort Worth, and 8th at the Valero. Kirk has missed the cut here the last 2 years, that’s my only concern with this play, but Cameron Smith has played here twice and has a missed cut and a 65th.
Anirban Lahiri ov Andrew Laundry
I really hate betting on Lahiri cause he’s so inconsistent, but he finished 2nd here last year, and has made the cut the last two tournaments. Landry since his win has been terrible. A 67th, a WD, and a missed cut. He’s proving our point about random winners doing bad after their win, so I’m hoping to take advantage, and I’ll have my fingers crossed that we get good Lahiri this week, and not miss the cut by 10 shots Lahiri.
