This is the old Bob Hope tournament. I never really liked the format, being 5 rounds, four with amateurs.
It's better now, cut back to a normal 4 rounds, using 3 courses, but still with amateurs. One amateur assigned to each pro, what a pain. Same format as the Crosby, I guess
Normally, I select a player with medium odds that I think has a chance to win. Naturally, they usually lose.This week I'm going with a guy that I think will actually win, regardless of odds.
Snedeker to win 16-1 SIA
A birdie guy for easy courses. Generally plays well with amateurs too.
72 holes
Haas over Garrigus -105 5di
Two guys who have played well here before. Pretty even, I'll take the longer odds.
Wagner over Walker +125 5di
Wagner is warmed up and got 2nd last year.
Edited to repair wrong info. One Amateur per pro, not three.
