Dell Technologies picks

Rickie Fowler ov Rory McIlroy

One golfer is healthy…one golfer almost shut it down for the rest of the season because he keeps re-injuring his back.  I’ll take the healthy golfer.  Not only is Fowler healthy, he’s been great.  5th, 9th, 22nd, 9th, 3rd, 5th, 20th in his last 7 tournaments, so even if Rory finishes the tournament, Fowler can easily be ahead of him.  I think Rory will probably finish the tournament, but I’m not sure if he can finish strong on the weekend, and if he’s not feeling good, I think a withdraw is a possibility.  (That’s the exact same writeup from last week).

Brian Harman ov Ollie Shenanigans

Had a nice win against Ollie last week, going to try it again this week with Brian Harman.  Harman finished three shots better than Ollie last week, and had a 13th place finish at the Pga Championship.  Ollie didn’t play in the majors, Harman was better than him at the John Deere which was the last tournament besides the northern trust they played in together.  Ollie is just not as good as some of these guys he’s playing against in these tournaments.  (I made this play yesterday, and the line moved big time…I’d still play it at -160)

Webb Simpson ov Sergio Garcia

Sometimes a golfer flies under the radar and we don’t notice til too late…Webb may be that golfer.  He was top 37 at the last 3 majors, which is better than Sergio, and Webb’s last two finishes were 3rd at the Wyndham and 6th last week at the Northern Trust.  Last time Sergio had a finish better than those two on the PGA Tour was his win at the Masters.  Since that win, no top 10s., only 2 top 20s.  I love getting the underdog here when it appears he’s playing much better golf.

Lucas Glover ov Cabrera Bello 1ST ROUND

Cabrera Bello has been awful.  +11 in two rounds at the Northern Trust missed cut, +7 at the Pga Championship missed cut.  +14 in 4 rounds at the WGC Bridgestone.  Glover got hurt last week, but I think he’ll play and be healthy for the first round.  If Cabrera Bello is hurt, or something is wrong, he’ll suck, and we’ll win the bet.  If he plays good, we’ll win.  Glover isn’t going to be near the top of the leaderboard, but Rafa won’t either…I’m betting that Glovers injury isn’t as bad as Rafa’s game is.
