The course will be playing 7,166 yds to a par 70. Sure, only having two par 5s instead of the traditional four cuts down on some of the length, but overall this is a fairly short course by the standards of today. One of the most important things to factor in this week will be the wind/weather. If it comes, it could cause some unfavorable conditions and having players that avoid it, could be the key to your guys making the cut. That will definitely be something to look for late Wednesday before you click submit for the last time. So with the course not terribly long, and possibly windy conditions, I would look for solid ball strikers at this course. Let’s take a look at a few players: Read More

First of all, I want to say what a great job Draftstreet did at pricing this tournament. Tiger and Phil are realistic picks this week with the prices, and guys like Johnson Wagner, Chez Reavie, and Henrik Stenson are just over 10k. You really have an opportunity to create any type of card you want, and have a realistic chance at winning. It’s not like some past tournaments where you could take an elite golfer but would have to get lucky with lower priced guys. This week all kinds of possibilities are available and it should make for fun GPPs. I can’t wait to see how guys that I respect fill their cards for the Players. Read More

This week sure does have a feel of a major. Tiger, Rory, Phil, and Westwood are all in the field along with quite a few other elite golfers. This course is long and tough to hit the fairways. Statistically it is one of the hardest golf courses to keep it in the short grass. What does this mean? Chipping and putting is at a premium this week since greens will be missed. Check those up and down, sand saves, and strokes gained putting stats all you want because that is where the winner is likely to come from. Read More
