    HEAD TO HEAD MATCH UPS


    We will have match ups for each round this tournament. They will be sent out once available each day.


    We go with 3 selections in the opening round and look to continue our excellent head to head start to the season (10-4).


    Branden Grace (+125) over Robert Garrigus - I really like Grace's chances this week and feel he should make short work of Robert Garrigus. Though Robert hits the ball a long ways, it wont intimidate Grace what so ever. Grace is a much better iron player and a far superior putter, skills that will help him win this matchup. I also cannot believe he is an underdog, these are excellent odds.


    Charl Schwartzel (-215) over Richard Henley - Henley burst onto the golf scene but his success was very short lived. His past 3 events have been a difficult adjustment to life as a PGA Tour winner. He also runs into one of the worlds hottest players in Charl Schwartzel this week. Take Charl and lay the juice with plenty of confidence.
    The week we have The Accenture Match Play Championship.

    Im only going to do Head to Head Match ups in this tourny.

    Richard Sterne (+135) over Jason Dufner
    Charl Schwartzel (-215) over Richard Henley
    Branden Grace (+125) over Robert Garrigus


    0 - 1 Tournament Play
    0 - 0 Head to Head

    Honda Classic Picks
    The Course
    The top players in the world will work their games around PGA National Resort and Spa (Champions Course) redesigned by Jack Nicklaus in 2001. The course only plays as a Par 70 and is a total of 7158 yards in length. This course perennially ranks as one of the most difficult out of the 52 courses played by the PGA Tour, mainly due to water hazards. There are 26 water hazards spread out across this course, forcing the players to manage their golf game properly. The wind is also a big reason you will see some large numbers this week.
    The course record at PGA National is a blistering 9 under 61 and was achieved by Brian Harman in the 2nd round last season. To go low like Brian did you will need to be accurate on Par 3's and 4's, as there are only two par 5's on the course. Some of the difficult Par 4's you will enjoy watching the players battle on include Holes 6 and 10.
    Hole 6 - Ranked as one of the hardest holes on the course last year playing over Par for the week. This Par 4 will be playing 479 Yards for the players this week and will challenge them off the tee and on their approach. Water lines the entire left hand side of the 6th, forcing many players to bail out right, thus resulting in difficult shots from the rough.
    Hole 10 - Another Par 4 that takes two excellent shots to hit the Green in Regulation, the 10th has played as the 4th hardest hole on the course over the past 5 years at an average of 4.2. The 10th will be played anywhere from 500 to 525 yards by the Pro's this week, forcing many players to hit mid to long irons into the green. Trees line the right side of the hole while a pot bunker at the front of the green will eat plenty of balls up this week.
    These holes will not receive anywhere near the attention that the "Bear Trap" will but I feel they will be extremely important.

    6 Pack Pick

    Justin Rose
    Lee WestWood
    Chris Kirk

    Jeff Overton
    Ben Crane
    Brian Stuard

    Lets aim for a win to get are Outright tourny wins going.

    Lee WestWood was going strong but let us down in the end. Justin Rose did make the top 5, so another close win as well.

    ARNOLD PALMER INVITATIONAL

    The Course
    Bay Hill is a Par 72, 7400 yard beast of a course. Historically one of the more difficult stops on the PGA Tour, Bay Hill will force the players to be at their best this week. Arnold Palmer is the figure head of this beautiful course and it is exactly the design he loves. Players will have the opportunity to blast their tee shots at some accessible fairways. Length will be a key this week but the players will also have to be hitting fairways and Greens in Regulation. Arnold Palmer has bunkers placed perfectly to eat up golf balls off drives and on the player's approaches. With 103 bunkers around the course you will be hard pressed to find a player who does not spend some time in the beach this week.

    6 Pack Pick
    LEE WESTWOOD
    IAN POULTER
    JASON DUFNER RICKIE FOWLER
    SEAN O'HAIR
    BRIAN DAVIS
