Shankster Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Pretty big names on the field list this week. But I’m picking Vijay. Have you seen his workout? I’m hoping for a BK / VS battle in Round 4. That would be something. What say you? gobama84, MGoBlue100 and JohnSmalls 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpyOdds were always in their favor as this event is scheduled right before Bay Hill and The Players. I can’t think of many top tier guys who want to play three weeks in a row. Add to that, the course is straight trash. Now you’ve got an event where the “other guys” can make some money without facing too many top 50 guys. I’ll take Jason Kokrak the win.

Kenny B Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 VJ is playing custom Mizuno MP20 irons. They have 2 numbers stamped on the sole... club number and bounce.
