Then I proceeded to rank Xander Schauffele, Jordan Spieth and Brooks Koepka 1-2-3 solely to look at them change into the three highest ranked gamers on this planet to overlook the reduce.* To place it in perspective, since 2018, these three guys had mixed to overlook a complete of three cuts in majors. Friday afternoon felt like searching my second ground window and watching my child slowly again over my golf equipment within the driveway. Simply barely extra helpless.
TWEET OF THE WEEK
I used to be going to put up the tweet I despatched at 12:19 a.m. on April sixth which seems to have been an try and justify my Xander Schauffele decide but it surely’s so incoherent that even I am unable to make any sense of what it means. It is nonetheless up there in case you wish to ty to determine it out. Within the meantime, let’s go along with this one from the identical style.
Watching #Masters weekend when your decide misses the reduce feels slightly just like the loss of life of a pet. Not an essential pet like a canine however possibly an outdated cat that somebody in your home truly preferred.

GOLF ANALYSIS NURSING A BAD HAMSTRING
You actually cannot go flawed with any of the highest ten priced DraftKings guys this week and I might add Webb Simpson and Tyrrell Hatton to that blend. I am going with Collin Morikawa as a result of his was the primary identify that jumped-out at me and my present reminiscence of him is co-providing the one pleasure of Masters Sunday.
Shifting down the checklist, Saudi Tour participant in ready Matt Kuchar (you realize he is at present simply checking the wind on that call) is at all times a strong choice right here and Tom Hoge appears like a superb match. BALL STRIKER ALERT!!!
The enigmatic Erik van Rooyan goes to have a prime 5 quickly and I wish to be a part of it when it occurs so he will probably be a daily for the following few weeks . . . or months. J.J. Spaun and Charles Howell, III are this week’s consolation picks coming-off final week’s debacle.**
And at last, I’d strongly urge a flyer on Wesley Bryan. Sure he is ranked 506th on this planet which signifies that there are at present 105 gamers higher than him earlier than you even get to the four-hundredth finest participant on this planet. Nevertheless, he is a previous champion right here, he is made the reduce three of the final 4 years and he completed T15 in his final begin. (That positive sounded so much like Bud Fox’s preliminary pitch to Gordon Gekko . . . which isn’t a superb factor).

Man we misplaced one of many nice ones this week. I do know Gilbert Gottfried wasn’t for everybody however he was positively for me. Appeared like each time he’d seem, you would be like “oh look it is Gilbert Gottfried . . . he is okay” after which two minutes later your ribs would damage.

Footnote
* Technically Sam Burns and Abraham Ancer had been ranked increased than Spieth on the time however, within the phrases of George Costanza upon being corrected, “good for the tuna.”
** For as many issues as I used to be flawed about, I used to be proper about (1) Morikawa and Viktor Hovland needing one other 12 months or two, (2) Corey Conners, and (3) Jon Rahm’s persistence or lack thereof. (Yeah however Xander Schauffele?) I KNOW . . . I KNOW!!!
