Further plays (total stake per play: 1pt)
Tim Clark to finish in the top-ten 6/1 @ William Hill
Have been looking for ways to back Clark and 4/1 to be Top South African looked favourite, but he will probably need to finish in the top-10 to win that group, so have settled on this market. With finishes of 2nd, 2nd and 6th in his last three starts, he is certainly playing well enough to finish in the top-10 this week and in terms of the Colonial angle, he was the halfway leader this year. He has managed a top-3 finish in a Major in each of the last two years, so there should be good value in these odds.
Scott Verplank to finish in the top-ten 6/1 @ William Hill
The home favourite who is more familiar with this course than all but a handful of players this week. Like Clark, he is the perfect fairways and greens player whose lack of length off the tee will not be an issue this week and comes into the event in very good form: he has finished in the top-10 in each of his last five starts in the U.S., including the U.S. Open and the Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial in May. I just can't see him winning a major, so the top-10 market appears the most appropriate for Verplank.
Kenny Perry to finish in the top-ten 6/1 @ William Hill
Twice a winner, plus one 2nd place, in the last six years at Colonial, a top-15 finish in each of his last six starts and 4th on this course in 1996 (he didn't play in the 2001 U.S. Open here) ... these are good stats for this event. He did disappoint on Sunday when in a very promising situation with 18 holes to play, so it may be less frustrating just to back him place-only, particularly in a Major.

"I love the golf course," he says. "The greens are very tricky and very fast, but I love fast greens, and I remember every slope on every green. It's a very difficult course, but I like how it sets up for me."
His fondness for the course was evident as he handled the doglegs with impeccable tee-to-green play and solid putting to lead after each of the first three rounds in 2001. The championship looked to be his on the 72nd hole, but Goosen three-putted from 12 feet ? missing a 2-footer for par ? to drop into a playoff with Brooks. But after laying that egg, Goosen was golden in the playoff to win by two shots.
"I can remember just about every shot I hit there that week, including that short one I missed," he says. "I'm sure my mind will wander back to 2001, and I will be telling myself I made a putt from here, chipped in from there. That can only help my game.""It's a very demanding, very tough course, which is ideal for Retief," says Colin Byrne, Goosen's caddie. "With his ball flight, he has a huge advantage when the greens are very hard. With rock-hard greens, like they were at Augusta National, his ability to spin the ball is extremely important and advantageous.
"And he's resilient. He's very strategic. He consumes the golf course when he walks around. He soaks up everything that goes on with the course. He knows where you have to be and where you better not be."

Last Major...Last chance for Tiger
I have a lot of Outrights, just like them all, don't like the +2.00 on Tiger. Justin is my Big Bet.
As far as MatchUps go I'm limited at this time. A bunch aren't up, I'm sure there will be daily posted Plays as the the Tourney goes on.
I'm home and off the rest of the week. I'm going through the Man Deal when your turn 50, Not sure when I can make it back to the Computer....I will be Home tomorrow for the kickoff of TV coverage. Good Luck to All and Thanks for Posting your Plays

Went to the site where I get the other stuff and this is usally blocked
PGA Championship Bench/Start
The PGA Championship, like all the other majors, is a bit of a different animal than your usual weekly PGA TOUR event. With so many good players in the field, it's pretty rare that fantasy owners will have to dig extremely deep into their bag of tricks to field a competitive lineup. Yet, as has been proven with first-timers emerging as winners in each of the first three 2007 majors, things don't always go according to plan. So, despite the fact that Tiger looked as dominant as ever a week ago and is undoubtedly narrowly focused on avoiding his first major-less season since 2004, there are plenty of sleeper candidates to keep an eye on this week at Southern Hills. Likewise, as always, there are more than a few upper-echelon players who will stumble and finish back in the pack ? or, worse yet, pack their bags after Friday's second round. Like we've done with the previous majors, we'll treat this week's edition of Bench/Start as more of a Sleeper/Bust-type article. In this way, we should also address those in office pools or single-event drafts as well.
Tim Clark - SLEEPER: A somewhat mysterious upper back and/or neck injury sapped much of Tiny Tim's strength and momentum late last year and early in 2007. But the gritty South African has come charging back with a vengeance in recent weeks, recording consecutive runner-up finishes at a couple of low-profile tournaments before tying for sixth last week at the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational. Clark is well-versed in the fairways-and-greens approach that typically keeps him in contention at major tournaments despite his lack of length. Even better, Southern Hills is one of the shortest tracks at a major in recent memory, so Tim's dearth of distance won't hurt him. Finishes of T13 and T17 at the Masters and the U.S. Open earlier in the year show how dangerous Clark can be, and it wouldn't be a surprise to see him in contention on Sunday.
Justin Rose - SLEEPER: Rose has played in few enough PGA TOUR events this year (11) that he's still flying under the radar despite playing very well all season. In 11 events, he has recorded six top-10 finishes, including an impressive T2 last week in brutal conditions at Firestone C.C. In three majors thus far, Rose hasn't finished worse than T12, and he is overdue for his first PGA TOUR win ? why not make it at a major?
Lucas Glover - SLEEPER: He's not exactly contending for titles every week, but Glover has been playing very well since the calendar turned to July. In the last five events, Glover has four finishes of T12 or better (but none better than T10). Finishes of T20 at the Masters and T27 at the British Open indicate Glover is getting comfortable in major competition, and if playing in a major isn't enough to motivate him this week, he's also battling for a spot on the President's Cup squad. A solid finish this week would keep him among the top 10 on those rankings, so expect Glover to be dialed in this week.
Davis Love III - SLEEPER: This is an all-or-nothing play. Love has been brutal all year long, but he jumped back into fantasy consciousness a week ago with a T6 at the WGC-Bridgestone last week; an event his historically performed well at. So, the question is whether that was a mirage in a desert of awful finishes, or if DL3 finally figured something out. If last year is any indication, it could be a harbinger of things to come. After a similarly-dreary start to 2006, Love tied for fourth at Bridgestone and followed it up with a win and a T5 in the final month of the season. Love tied for seventh at the 2001 U.S. Open at Southern Hills, so history is also on his side at this golf course.
Angel Cabrera - BUST: I'm officially done with Cabrera. He's burned fantasy owners several times since his unexpected win at the U.S. Open; first at Carnoustie, where he had played well in the past, then last week in Akron, where he shot four rounds of 73 or worse en route to a T69 at event at which he'd previously logged two top 10s in three years. This week brings Southern Hills, where Cabrera tied for seventh place in 2001. So he'll undoubtedly get plenty of attention this time around, but he's simply too inconsistent to trust. At this point, I'd rather take a chance on Andres Romero, his young countryman who has been absolutely on fire since the British Open.
Paul Casey - BUST: I've also become bored of backing Casey. I've been touting him for most of the season, but he's been vastly disappointing since opening the season with four consecutive top-15 finishes. Since then, he's been all over the map; tying for 10th at both the Masters and the U.S. Open but fading to a tie for 27th at the British and careening down the leaderboard at the WGC-Bridgestone after a stellar opening round. His recent lack of consistency (and the fact that he's missed the cut three times and never finished better than T59 in five previous PGA Championship appearances) is enough for me to stay away from him this week.
Mike Weir - BUST: A healthy Weir is a must-start at major tournaments. Even in a down year, he's finished in the top 20 at each of the first three majors. However, he had to withdraw from the Bridgestone a week ago after the first round because of a neck injury, which should cause fantasy owners who have watched his game crumble since a (presumably unrelated) neck injury befell him after the Masters two years ago. I'd have a tough time backing Weir or fellow injured lefty Phil Mickelson (or Jim Furyk, for that matter) this week.
Nick O'Hern - BUST: O'Hern is generally viewed as a solid player because of his ability to keep the ball in the fairway and hit greens. That would make him a decent bet on the doglegs and undulating fairways of Southern Hills, except that the perception doesn't really match up with reality. This season, O'Hern ranks just 108th in fairway accuracy and a hideous 186th in greens in regulation. Throw in a putter that ranks just 115th and a driver that can only manage a paltry 280 yards off the tee (165th), and it's not tough to understand why O'Hern has been wildly inconsistent all season long. Toss in the fact that O'Hern has missed the cut twice in the last three events and tied for 56th last week in Akron, and you've got yourself an erratic player currently mired in a slump. Does that sound like a contender?

Even if you're not a hard core fantasy golfer, if you follow the sport there's a good chance you participate in an office pool or online game geared exclusively to golf's four major tournaments. This week, the boys get their "last chance for glory" (until next year, of course) in Tulsa, OK, where Southern Hills will host its first major event since the 2001 U.S. Open.
Yeah, you know about Tiger, Vijay, and Phil. You may even know that Retief Goosen took the title at Southern Hills back in 2001. But who are you going to take in the second and third round? Who is this year's Shaun Micheel? Is 2002 champ Rich Beem still alive? Thankfully, the Fanball brain trust has done all the work for you. Every week of the fantasy golf season, golf guru Christian Peterson throws darts, flips coins, analyzes past results, and pores over current trends, course history, and complicated mathematical formulas to come up with our Weekly Player Rankings.
As with all the majors, for the PGA Championship we've expanded our rankings to include the top 50 golfers entered into the event, with commentary for each and every one.

several plays vs calc --reasoning is- does not like hot weather--and generally avoids--wd after 1st rd at St Jude this year with 96 degree temp )99 heat index) --heat index here yesterday was 106 @ 1 oclock--should bode well with his PM tee time.
decent chance of him not completeing this event in my view.

several plays vs calc --reasoning is- does not like hot weather--and generally avoids--wd after 1st rd at St Jude this year with 96 degree temp )99 heat index) --heat index here yesterday was 106 @ 1 oclock--should bode well with his PM tee time.
decent chance of him not completeing this event in my view.
