I'm running another snake style draft (2 golfers) with 24 friends and family members. I have the 12th pick, just inside that gray area of not knowing who the hell is gonna fall your way. Worth a stab for $40.

My longshot is Russell Henley. Kid had a real shot to win The Players Championship if he didn't $hit the bed on saturday to shoot a wretched +8...if, if, if,...if my aunt had balls, ... I love the fire with which he plays.

I'm beyond excited for Thursday morning.

Greatest. Venue. Ever. Everything about Pinehurst stirs my soul and reminds me why I love golf like no other sport. I have played 7 of the 8 courses there. #2 is still on the bucket list. I was at Pinehurst in 1999 for the 3rd round. It's just heaven.

Interesting side note: Ben Bridgers, the Director of Golf at Pinehurst, was the guy that took my place as Asst. Golf Pro at Nags Head Golf Links when I Ieft there in 1999. Must have been all the knowledge I left behind that helped him land the Pinehurst gig.

Anyway...only 3 guys come to mind that are capable of hitting the types of iron shots necessary for these crowned greens.
Rory
Sergio
Bubba

I hope Bubba misses the cut. Either Rory or Sergio win this week.
