EURASIA CUP DOWN TO THE WIRE

There were no Odds worth Betting on this Years Inaugural EurAsia Cup. So I skipped this it. 
But Wow! Europe Crushed Asian until the Last Round. Then they Tied it up with 2 Holes to Go! If this were the Ryder Cup - it would have been one of the best in History.

Some Rowdy Fans Were Hollering - Whooping it Up Every time Asia Did Well.
Not Sure Who They were - Sounded American. Made it Fun. Reserved Asian Players Looking back Smiling in Surprise.


On 17 
Tanihara  Concedes 3 footer - Leaving him a Must make 7 Foot Put- He Sinks it to Extend the Match

It came down to the 18th Hole
Tanihara vs Castano. 

On 18 

Tee Shots:
Castano Pushed Right Rough
Tanihara Fairway

Approach Shots:
Castano 30 feet Right of Pin on Green
Tanihara 15 feet Right Just on the Fringe 

3rd Shot Puts:
Castano Breaks hard Left 4 Feet
Tanihara Taps it - It runs Hard Left too - About 2 Feet

4th Shot Puts:
Castano KNown for Missing Clutch Puts - Pushes it In!
Tanihara (Conceded)
TIE!

REALLY? 
THAT'S IT?
NO PLAYOFF?
THAT SUCKS - THEY SHOULD CHANGE THAT RULE.

In Order of Last Years Finish

(L3) Last 3 years

POWER RANKS

Course

Narrow Fairways surrounded by trees and hazards. Need Good Drive accuracy and Scrambling this week. Good Putting will be required as well.

Zach Johnson

Won here  twice -  in 08 and 09 then MC and hasn't  played Valero since. Btt his stats are off the Hook - and set up real well for this course - #3 in Drive Accuracy - (see PR above). 

Jordan Spieth

Is back at Home in Texas this week after a week off to prepare. He missed the cut last year and 44th the year before. Sticking with him for a while longer. 

Freddie Jacobson

The "Junk Man" can scramble with the best of them and has a good record at Valero. 

3 Top 5s and an 18th in the last 4 years. He is also trending right now - finishing 10th and 20th in the last 2 PGA events. 

Summerhays Daniel 

Is on the sheet again and was 7th last year - Like him at 80-1 LVH. 

Brain Davis

Ranked 5th in Power Ranking But was not on the sheet. Really sucks as 1st time winners are a tradition at Valero.

Round 1

Our Power Ranks 
Storm the First Page of Leaderboard!
144 Players in The Field
1st and 2nd / 3 Tied for 4th

Jordan Spieth In Trouble!

He Bogied 6 of the first 9 Holes (+6). He will need a strong 2nd 9 to keep his hopes alive for a chance to compete this weekend  He Birdied 1 (played the back nine first). 5 Over through 12 Holes. 6 to go?

The Comeback KId
Does it again. 6 over heading into the last 9 holes. With the leaders at just around -3.  So he didn't try to get it all back in 9 holes. But he got half - Finishing at just (+3).  
If he shoots well tomorrow - could be just 2 or 3 off the lead by Saturday. 

Phil Mickelson
Said coming in "He's just practicing to win another Major at the Masters."
What an Ego!  Bet he felt pretty good - several strokes ahead of Spieth on the front 9. 
That didn't last. He was 3 Over by the Final Hole. He had a 2 footer for Bogey.
He missed even that Tap In - to Finish 2 behind Spieth (+5). 
Maybe you're just practicing, Period, Phil.

Round 2
____________________________________

4 Power Ranks on the First Page!

 

Perez and McKenzie 

Put on a Clinic - Sticking One Approach shot after another. It was Fun to Watch for once this year  Real Golf!  What a deal. They were both at (-7) but each fell several strokes by the end of the Round. Unfortunately they - like the rest of the field - watched great shots bounce off or roll down the undulating greens. When will the PGA realize that's not want we want to see?

 

Luck of The Draw
Jordan Spieth drew the short straw in Tee Times this week. Fog, Delay, Wind and Rain first Round. High Winds and Dry Greens the 2nd. Early Late Tee Time had a great advantage. JOrdan did well to survive into the weekend. 6 Over after Friday. He's just (+1) going into Saturday. Mickelson was lucky to makes it at (3+) - Right on the Cut Line.

House of Cards
The Leaderboard has 4 untested and unfamiliar faces on top. 4 Players with multiple Top 10s are right behind them. Look for a new set of leaders by the Final 9 Holes on Sunday.

Bowditch (-11)
Holes 2 Chips on his 1st 2 Holes -  to Extend his Lead! 

Seems like a good nice, humble guy - too bad I have to root against him.

Jordan Spieth

Making a move. 3 Under on front 9 (-2).  It would be Miraculous if he came back to steal this one after a 6 Over Start on Friday.  He will need the Leaders to Finish  around (-10) Today - to have a chance. So Yell "Shank! When the Leaders Tee Off.

Our Power Ranks
Kuchar / Perez and Na still on the First Page 3 and 4 back.

ROUND 3 FINAL

Get Off My Leaderbord!

Until Collins pushed one down - 6 of 8 Names on the First Page were Power Ranks. If the Leader falls - we are ready to Steal This!

Life's Ups and Downs

Have been hard on Steven Bowditch. Over 100 Starts - Only 2 Top10s in his Career. 

UP and Downs were his specialty Yesterday. He Missed 11 Fairways and still shot 4 Under. 

The Pictures Below illustrate just one of many fantastic saves that kept him on Top.

 RESULT

With 3 Rounds in the 60s - He is due for one bad one. 
That would the Final Round Make this Anyone's Game. 
We'll see?

PUSHES IT WAY LEFT! Left of Rough in cabbage just short of desert.  

Shot 2  

 

Lands In the Fairway

Oh Great, They just explained the guy has suffered from depression for years. 
Now I can't even yell shank. For real. Feel bad Rooting against him. If he blows this - can't be good for depression. 

Well, He just landed on the Green with his 3rd shot. So unless he 4 puts from 50 feet - he's safe. I - on the other hand - may Buy a Gun and Slit My Wrist. 2 Power Ranks in the Clubhouse with the lead. Hey - Good for him. Not Over yet though. Kuchar still has an Approach shot for Eagle from a crap lie in the Rough - OK pretty Much Over. 

WOW! Kuchar almost hits the Pin! But bounces off green into Rough. 

Bowditch Puts to Inside 3 Feet. WOW! Lips Out! Pushes in.

Here Are My Picks

Feeling Good This Week!

Maybe I'm Dellusional

But Think We Covered a Good

Cross Section of The Field

Caution

Tiger Woods Out - WD Back Spasms!

Adam Scott @12-1 Played Twice - Last 8 Years - 2 MC

Justin Rose Solid Favorite

Low Odds But Have to Cover Him

Experience Counts
Watching Last nights replay of last year - I didn't see anyone sticking Approach shots within 6 feet. Not because they can't - because they wont even try. These greens have undulation, slopes and run offs surrounded by water or hazards. 

Experience at this course wil be at a Premium. You have to know where to place the ball. So, I did not bet Bombers or Young Guns this week. 
Solid Putting should be the Key to Victory this week. 

Kevin Na may let me down this week. But he was 2nd last week Putting extremely well under pressure. He has 4 top 10s this year without a Win and 2 Top 10s at BayHill - a 4th and a 2nd. 

Good value at 40-1.

Round 1
____________________________________

Merrick Finished (-7) T2

Adam Scott (-10)
I did not even include Scott as the Power Ranks. I was wrong in saying he had Never played Bayhill - but not by much. He has played 5 times. But - only Twice in the last 8 years Missing the Cut both Times. So, how did he do it? Long Eagle Puts on the Par 5s.  He did hit the Fairways and Greens and had only 23 Puts in his Round. PGA Avg - 29. The guy is for real - he has  8 or 9 Rounds at 62 or below in his career. Like Garrigus last week - he scored on par 5s. Like Garrigus last week - He is faced with the challenge of holding an 18 shot lead through 72 Holes?

The Parties Over.
As I Predicted - No one was Pin hunting on Thursday, Putting was the name of the game yesterday. Round One featured a Record number Long Puts - and I mean Long! 4 over 50 feet Several over 70 feet. Mr Palmer won't let that continue. The kids threw a party with the parents out of town. Daddy 's Home Now and he's Pissed. Look for Arnie to Turn Off the Sprinklers and Hide the Pins.

Ryo Ishakawa (125-1) - 2nd Place (-7)
After I missed Senden last wek at (100-1) - If Ryo wins this week - I may stab myself in the leg with a fork. Didn't take my own advice - Look at the bottom of the bet sheet and cover the longshots this year. Better than Geico - $5 could make you $500. $625 in the case of Ishakawa. 

Will the Stats Prevail?

I leaned on stats this week and still feel good about the Picks. The greens were soft and they were still barley staying on the green. Thus the Long Puts. Not saying Scott Wont be there - just saying it ain't over yet. By Saturday Night - I expect to see some of Our Power Ranks on the First Page of the Leaderboard.

Bubba Huey (WD) Allergic to Embarrassment 
Stupid is what Stupid Does. 3 "Tin Cup" Style water shots were a new low for the Man-child. 
At least in Tin Cup he was aiming at the Pin - not the fairway.  After a 7 on the front 9 18th, an 11 on the Back 9 6th hole - was all Watson's Enormous Ego could take.  He withdrew after the Round due to "Allergies". The Pollen count is high - but not as high as his blood pressure. I think the actual medical term for this disorder is Acute Cerebral Deflation.

____________________________________

Round 2
____________________________________

Adam Scott - Just Better
than the rest of the field. Like Garrigus last week - he is scoring on Par 5s and holds a 36 Hole Lead. Unlike Garrigus - he is hitting damn near every Fairway and Green and Knows how to close. With a 7 Shot lead - if he only shoots 2 Under both of the next 2 days - The 3 players in 2nd will have to shoot better than 11 under on the weekend just to tie him. This one may be over before the weekend starts. Bayhill does NOT have a history of players shooting low and coming from behind - against even a 4 shot lead. But 2 days left and anything can happen. 

 ____________________________________

Round 3
____________________________________

Power Ranks Storm the Leaderboard!

(T2) Keegan Bradley(-12), Every(-11) and Molinari (-10) on the First Page. Another 3 Challenged the Lead and fell back late in the round to the 2nd page. Win or Not - Our Power Ranks have shown up Strong this week. Scott (-15) stumbled a  bit in Round 3 - opening the door a crack. He now has just a 3 shot lead over Bradley. Everyone has one bad round in a 4 day stretch. Cant really call 1 Under a bad round. So, it Remains to be seen if today was it - or if we'll see a bad round out of Adam Scott - and  Fireworks tomorrow. 

____________________________________

Final Round
____________________________________

Patrick Reed T-15 Well off the Lead
A week ago Twitter blew up after Patrick Reed boasted that he is "A Top 5 Player". Self confidence is great in your own head - But patting yourself on the back in public like that is classless and just plain stupid. 

As Patrick Reed warmed up on the practice range today  - Todd Lewis made the point that his Top 5 comment will bite him in the ass eventually.

Raymond Floyd pulled a similar stunt prior to a Ryder Cup - Calling his team "The best 12 players in the world". He was handed his ass by a European Team that didn't care much for his comment.  More 

Can't help but think of Susie Green on Curb your enthusiasm - calling her husband a "Fat...F..k ever time I see his face. 

Kevin Na

On Friday, Ugly hecklers in the gallery harassed Kevin Na to the point that he asked officials to intervene.  Fellow players said the verbal onslaught was the worst they'd ever heard. Na suffers from an emotional or mental weakness that causes him to hesitate, almost panic on the the Tee at times. The condition has caused him to be put on the closk and timed by officials on several occasions - including Thursday - during Round 1. 

His fans and friends took things into their own hands on Saturday. They followed in the gallery wearing printed T-shirts "Kevin NA - Worth the Wait" - to show their support. Way to go Guys!

Heroes and Villains

Neither one is really either. But that's what makes watching the PGA fun. Gotta have players you hate and those you love. Makes screaming at the TV way more fun.
Final Round

It's Really up to Adam Scott whether or not we have a thrilling finish today.  If he stalls or drops a few strokes - a Feeding Frenzy will ensue. If he shoots 3 or 4 Under - he'll cruise to an easy win and the final will just be a formality.
