My PGA Pick
Hello. Tomorrow the PGA begins. And while the Fedex Cup buildup is reaching off the scales on the hype meter (not really), the PGA is the last winner anyone will remember in years to come, unless you remember Jeff Maggert won the first WGC Match Play title.
So, who looks good to win here? Let's see, there's this Tiger Woods fellow. I think he went to Stanford. Plus he just won a relatively big event. Some may think he'll not fare well at Southern Hills, because it's not his type of golf course. However, if he does what he did at Medinah (use a 5 wood off the tee) or Royal Liverpool (use a 2 iron) he should roll here.
Why doesn't Tiger win every tournament he enters? I think it's fair to ask that question, even though it would've been crazy to ask it 15 years ago of any other golfer. I feel he should control his swing more, especially in the first 2 rounds. Tiger never has to take a huge swing to get results. He can reach almost all par 5s in two. Just take an easy swing, and let it go from there.
So who will win? I'm liking Tiger. He's defending, he's majorless, and he's all about ending streaks like not being able to win at such-and-such. If he's within the lead after Friday, I think he's a lock.
Regards,
Steve
