WGC / Barracuda Update
Lots of news over the weekend. My top 3...
1.) Rory moves back to #1 in the world with second straight win. He may hold it for 10+ years now.
2.) DJ suspended or not suspended. Maybe a voluntary leave for substance abuse and possible indiscretions with other tour wives. The guy is a rock head.
3.) Tiger injured again. If he plays this week watch for the PGA TOUR to invoke a mid-tourney WD rule next year. I feel strongly the tour needs a miss next two tourneys if you WD mid-tourney rule. He probably really is injured, think he'd have toughed it out for a pay day with 9 holes left if humanly possible.
Our pool...
Travis and Steve picked Rory and made significant jumps in the standings. Shocked that nobody picked Ogilvy when I went back to the Barracuda picks. Below is a breakdown of your chances...
- Everyone above 35th place (Tom Roberts) is still statically alive with a win at the PGA Championship.
- Chris Hood is guaranteed a spot in the playoffs and nearly a lock to finish in the top 3. Only Russ, Tom and Jennifer have a shot to catch him at #1 and that is with a win and bad pick from Chris.
- A win from anyone inside the top 18 (Steve Smith) would give them a chance to finish top 3.

RBC Canadian Open
A decent week of picks for many but another GREAT week for Chris Hood. He had a solo pick of Tim Clark and builds his lead surpassing the $10M mark on the season. In the past two weeks he's netted nearly $4.5M. That's more than 20 players in the pool have made all year -- including this guy!
Picking one guy every week out of 144 is frustrating and difficult. What I can do is usually tell you 3-5 guys not to pick. This week those guys were players who feel they are "major-worthy" and beyond tourneys like this. Luke and DJ fit this bill and both MC'd. Let me know if you ever need any help determining who NOT to pick. If you want to give me any advice on who to pick that would be great.

The Open Update...
What a golf tournament. Rory wins his third major winning wire to wire and Little Rickie and Sergio stepped up on Sunday to keep it interesting. A few random thoughts (feel free to add your own under comments)...
- Not sure about you guys but I was actually rooting for Sergio to at least make a playoff. Not just to keep it interesting, but the guy has suffered a lot. I know he's kind of a D-Bag but I really wanted him to win it.
- Somewhere during the back 9 yesterday I said to myself Tiger will NEVER win four more majors. These guys are just too talented now, I don't see it happening.
- I really, really like Rickie but maybe he could get rid of that orange shirt on Sundays? He has a less than 1% win rate. Mix it up kid.
We had some major, major moves in the pool. Perhaps the best picks we've ever had in a non-Tiger win. Only two people picked Rory, below are the major moves and their picks...
Chris Hood (Rory) -- 5th to 1st
Tom Sullivan (Rory) -- 17th to 2nd
Matt Saler (Scott) -- 13th to 9th
Chris and Tom also take $75 each with the win and top pick in the major. Just four tourneys left but two with MAJOR purses. Only $15,000 separates 12th from 10th...
