Okay, here is a place for the Golfers to talk about tournaments, clubs, swing help or thoughts.
Today is the Players Championship, which I think ought to be the 5th Major. Largest pot in the PGA. The daunting 17th, which seems to bring excitement every year. At least we will get to see Sergio blow up yet again.
Yeah but who's going to win the Price Cutter? I have Sky Box Passes and Beer Garden Passes. Whatever they're called. We've provided the scoring building for several years now so I always have passes. I never go but this year I am. Think I'll sit in the Sky Box and have a Martini. LOL I consider myself a hick. ... I've played Highland Springs many times and I've played well there but these guys will torch it. Low 60 rounds and the winner will shoot -20 or something crazy like that. Woo Whoo! Price Cutter baby! [Reply]

It's about time for Dustin Johnson to come through. He is definitely due, but he is also good for a blowup round which takes him out of the top finishing spots.
Mahan is do as well, and will be a multiple major champion before it is all said and done.
I definitely don't like Tiger's chances, he can't get off the tee it seems. And his play in the weekend at Bridgestone was just flat as hell. He can't play on the weekends like he can on Thursday, Friday.
I like Cabrera or Scott to win this, the top finishers at the Master's. [Reply]

At 80-1, Cabrera's carrying some serious value with the way he drives and his performances at Augusta and Muirfield. I've picked Scott every major this year and he's got another great chance this week but he's 3rd on the odds so he's not carrying any money any more.
Tiger at 3.5-1 is too pricey. Obv the favorite but in a field with 156 of the world's best and given he's 0-19 in recent majors, those odds are terrible. [Reply]
I just don't know if Johnson, Snedeker, or Mahan have the mental fortitude to win a major. I really like Hunter Mahan, but he's mentally weak. He's pissed his pants in every major he's contended at, choked at the Ryder Cup, and has a suspect short game.
Maybe he turns the corner, but he could just be a non-asshole Scott Hoch.
I'd probably go with Muffner. He'll need a good putting week to win, but he can go super low and he's a flatliner. [Reply]

I'll guarantee you this: if he's in the lead on Sunday front-running nuthuggers like KStater will be pumping AIDS into this thread nonstop.
Tiger at -2 right now, but this is an interesting take. Left himself 202 from the intermediate rough on 17 and is having to scramble for par. Though he did hit a nice 3rd shot. [Reply]
