I know all the talk is already on the US Open, but we have a week and another tournament until then. Not a bad field either, for the week before a major. The groupings are pretty intriguing as well.
 
I'm with you.... I'm trying to focus on this weeks picks first....

This week seems like kind of a crapshoot. 4-5 guys that almost everyone will pick, then a huge pool of sleepers with possibilities.
 
Westwood baby!!

I've been picking mostly sleepers trying to play catch up in the fantasy golf... it was working until last weeks last place finish...

Yeah lots of familiar names on the leaderboard last week. Certainly not the norm for this season as a whole.
 
In a bold departure from form, I've picked the following -

Alex Cejka
Ben Crane
Brian Davis
Sergio Garcia
Andres Gonzales
Padraig Harrington
Fredrik Jacobson
Robert Karlsson
Carl Pettersson
Lee Westwood


Nice to see Paddy back on the course after injury. Would love to see him hit some form. Ran out of Euro options, so I filled 2 spaces with a couple of the coolest guys I could find.

Yes! Andres Gonzales!
 
These tournaments like this week and Houston earlier this year have a HARD time with getting a lot of attention. The golfing world is so focused on the following week that you almost forget about them.....even as a hardcore fan of golf.

Ben Crane...will he handle the newly minted Euro citizenship? It's a heavy burden that few have been able to carry.

That is a concern. I'm not counting my chickens just yet. Nick Watney hasn't been seen in public since I picked him last week. Word is he's holed up in South America somewhere.
 
I remembered my team, second week in a row! hahaha
 
My team for this week:

Jonathan Byrd
Robert Garrigus
Brian Gay
Jason Gore
Steve Marino
Geoff Ogilvy
Brendan Steele
Camilo Villegas
Lee Westwood
Y.E. Yang
 
I'm going with

Stuart Appleby
Jonathan Byrd
Ben Crane
Brian Gay
Padraig Harrington
Spencer Levin
Steve Marino
Daniel Summerhays
David Toms
Lee Westwood
 
Here's what I'm looking at this week:

Robert Allenby
Jonathan Byrd
Sergio Garcia
Brian Gay
Fredrik Jacobson
Zach Johnson
John Senden
Brandt Snedeker
David Toms
Lee Westwood

I was really torn between Jacobson, Karlsson, or Brian Davis. I figured Freddie Jac has the least chance of blowing up and missing the cut..
 
How did I overlook David Toms? Crap!!!
 
The top ten picks:

Lee Westwood 64
Jonathan Byrd 53
David Toms 52
Sergio Garcia 48
Brandt Snedeker 42
Zach Johnson 41
Brian Gay 39
Steve Marino 27
Padraig Harrington 26
Geoff Ogilvy 23

And that's mine except swap out Garcia and Harrington and put in Robert Karlsson and John Senden.

Others picked by 20 or more:

Y.E. Yang 21
Ben Crane 21
Anthony Kim 20
 
Anthony Kim? Why would anyone pick him? Id pick Tiger before Kim

Well, he is only 3 over through 7. Only 2 guys are doing worse thus far. :D
 
Didn't pick him, but I'm glad to see Camilo rolling along well so far.

I don't know why I picked him. He's playing so badly this year.

lol yeah Kim is off the rocker this year. I think I picked him once and that was it.
 
I went with:

Sergio
Brian Gay
CH III
Marino - I'm going to keep picking him... he has win sometime...
Carl Petterson - Keep going low!
John Rollins
Heath Slocum
David Toms
DJ Trahan
Lee Westwood - I was trying to keep him off because everyone is going to pick him... but I didn't want everyone else to be right except for me...
 
Lee Westwood FTW!

I bet he eats a full rack of Memphis ribs for dinner.
