The so-called ‘fifth major’ gets cranked up tomorrow morning and it comes with a lot of hype. This year the tournament isn’t played during the NCAA basketball tournament and it isn’t lurking in the shadows of The Masters. The date change isn’t the only adjustment due to the addition of a new 77,000 square foot club house and major changes to the golf course itself. All these changes in conjunction with an event that has 80 of the top 100 players in the world lends to an exciting four days of golf. The TPC also offers the same number of FedEx Cup points as the four major championships plus it has the biggest winnings purse that flaunts a whopping $9 million. As usual the normal favorites are being tossed around with the likes of Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Vijay Singh and so on, but I think Adam Scott will bring home the bacon this weekend. Thoughts?
Vaughn Taylor will win this and by 2 strokes.
You heard it hear first!
He has been playing extremely well this year so I won’t knock you down for the prediction. 😉
