Shankster Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Not that the Valspar Championship isn’t a riveting bit of entertainment but I am ready for some elimination. One of my favorite events of the year, and I don’t mind the course either. I’m going with Tommy Fleetwood. What say ye? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GB13 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 I say Bubba with the repeat. Good course for him, and match play suits his game.

palvord Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 I say Molinari wins this event. It's a fun event IMO, as it is different than the stroke play we watch week after week. I would love to see more match play events on tour, and think that forcing the Americans to play in more match play events may help them perform better in the Ryder Cup.

FrogginBullfish Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Tiger's match play record in his pro career is 50-17-2 including Ryder Cup and President's Cup singles matches, which is pretty darn good. He's also won the WGC Match Play 3 times in 2003, 2004, and 2008.His fourball/foursomes record, on the other hand, is not good, 29-35-2.

Shankster Posted March 26, 2019 Author Share Posted March 26, 2019 Just got a bunch of people at work to fill out a bracket. I loved their Strategery... pick the coolest sounding names. Only 2 avid golfers and watchers.Should be interesting to see who wins. One guy has DJ vs BK, another DJ vs Li, Woods vs Bubba... nothing I’d pick, maybe not knowing anything about golf will help them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
