The WGC-Cadillac Championship Picks Are Up! |
No stingy-ass picking here... |
![]() Ten unique picks. Chris leads with 3. Bill and Mike M. have 2 each. Brett, Steve and Dave A. have one each. The remaining 9 of us didn't find a Doral match for our picks. We opened it up a little bit more on the picks this week, but with the top 50 in the world playing it's tough to come up with any dark horses. We've got the highest number of total picks so far this year and the highest percentage of uniques, deuces or treys (70%). It's a brand new course, and a hell of a lot longer and tougher than the old one. From the little bit of play I saw today, I think the designer forgot that the wind can blow in South Florida. Lots of shaved banks and greens and fairway edges sloping toward water. The storm that's hitting the course Thursday afternoon looks pretty foul. I read they just finished planting many of the palm trees last week. I don't imagine they took root, so they will have to stand those suckers back up after this storm. I think they are probably done golfing for the day. It's our first "Tiger May Care" event of the year (though this week I guess we don't really care about him) and with this nice set of picks and all these top golfers, if there is a golf course left to play, we're gonna have a hell of a good one... Let's get it on! Later, ![]() |
