WGC Match Play


Shankster

Recommended Posts

Bracket filled out for MGS and looks like I got Kisner over Rahm in the final!  Tiger over Molinari in the consolation match.  I also think Stenson will come out of the Day, Mickelson, Stenson, and Furyk group.  

I have never done one of these for golf but man is it a whole lot different than march madness.  I like it.

Man. This will be a good week.... leading up to the Masters! Woo!

Isn’t this a great sport? Events pretty much every week, all year.

I only wish I had better EuropeanTour coverage here... might have to get sling or dtvnow before the Irish Open.

Side note. I’ve been outside for a hour, chipping into the darkness, it’s 35° and a nice brisk wind... can’t feel my face or hands but I couldn’t be happier.

What will be the largest margin of victory? Which match?

I have a feeling Rose will crush Grillo, Other notables that will likely be crushing defeats to me are Kuch and JB (unless JB stalls until Kuch dies of old age), Sergio and Lowry, Casey and Ancer

Think Wise will hang with emoji234.png?

 

Tiger is so wildly unpredictable these days that I have no freaking clue...

I have him winning his group but I woudlnt be surprised if Sneds take it, either way neither of them will get past Rors if he takes his group.

Tiger's off the tee game has been so hit or miss this year and this course demands a level accuracy that I'm not sure he has right now. But it's not like Wise is known for being the next Furyk. Think the hardest thing for Wise is going to handling the Tiger show and all that goes along with it.

What odds can I get on Snedeker getting into a verbal altercation with Cantlay over the disparity in rate of play?

 

Also I think people are severely underestimating Brooks this week. Gimme Rahm over Brooks in the finale with Rory over Bubba in the consolation.

BK just hasnt been playing well compared to some of the guys on there. I think he only has one top 10 on the season...but I could be wrong, I remember him doing well at the Honda but other that I haven't seen him do much recently.

He definitely has not been as hot as many of the other guys (MC at the API, 56 at Players) but he did have a T2 at the Honda. He got the dream group draw against Noren who has been playing like crap, Hao Tong who has been playing like crap, and Tom Lewis who is just in way over his head. His second round challenger is coming out of one of the better 4 man sets in Finau/Poulter/Kis/Killa Keith Mitchell who just bested him at the Honda. But in a one round match I'll take Brooks over any of those guys.

BK is a major or bust guy (kidding, kind of)... I like it actually. And by that I mean he brings his absolute best stuff on the biggest stages. That’s what great athletes do. Does he see a WGC as a big stage? Not to say he wouldn’t like winning some other tournaments, but what kind of career would it be if 90% of your wins were majors and it turned out to be 9 or 10? That’s saying something.

I think it was Barstool's Foreplay podcast that had a discussion on which would you rather have 83 wins with no majors or 21 majors with no other wins.

A veeeerrrrry underestimated player is Matt Wallace.  

Wallace got himself a solid draw. JT hasn't been as on point with his irons, Keegan is brutal at matchplay, and just call Bjerregaard an also ran.

Since Golf Channel was airing Bubba's drubbing of Kisner yesterday I watched a bit of it and I'm looking forward to catching the highlights of the first days action when I get home. I like the format since it's a nice change from the usual stroke play, and it's always hard to figure out who will end up getting the win. Interesting thoughts on Brooks as well and I tend to think that even though this is a WGC event, it's not something that gets his juices flowing. And even though Tiger has been streaky, I'm hoping he manages to make some noise this week!
