Save $50 of that and enter the tournament I told you about. The 25th guy is hedging now because he "has things to do this weekend".

I honestly wouldn't even know which direction to go if I get the top pick in the draft tonight. Bigtime toss up!

I pick 8th & then 43rd on the way back.

Is it weird that I know who I'm taking on the way back already (super sleeper that I won't post here bc my brothers lurk here from time to time)??

I'm half tempted to take Fleetwood at 8 with the way he's playing. I just can't pass up on a Rose or Garcia type if they somehow are still there at 8. I chose before both brothers so it doesn't matter if they see this or not.


Can't WAIT for The Open!

Louis Oosthuizen is solid and Jason Day for me.

Not sure you could pay me to take Day at this point. He's nowhere near his 2016 form.

I just took Rahm at 8 in the draft. It was either Rahm or Koepka to choose from, let's hope I made the right choice!

Hasn't even made the turn yet, seems like everyone is having trouble choosing a golfer for this event. I took Rahm in less than 10 seconds.. Fleetwood went 6th.

Almost my pick again and my original plan was to go Cameron Smith .... but the list of available golfers is way too long for me to blindly take Smith. This decision SUCKS.

Lovemark, Kisner, Finau, Bubba, Hadwin, Harman, Henley, Wesley bryan, Billy Ho ... UGHHHHHHHH wtf man this is a toughie

Absolutely ... i was torn between Rahm, Rors, and Koepka once Hideki was taken.




and fwiw .... I just ( for SOME REASON ) took Finau on the way back. Probably the hardest decision ive had to make since the inception of this tournament years ago.

and i already dont like it haha

I think Rahm was the right play, most likely winner IMO.

I was going to take Snedeker as a longshot play, but he's already out.

I'll go with Molinari for my bomb now.

Took a little Dustin Johnson +1800 To be first round leader.
Took a little Shane Lowry + 2200 to be low European. Also +5000 first round

It's rough betting golf. How are you supposed to hope guys miss putts ?

Tommy Fleetwood looks more like Mick Fleetwood out there.
