Sunday:
Brett Wetterich(66/1 and 1/4 for 1-2-3) e.w. @ SIA
- - The leaderboard, difficult course and breezy conditions at the 2005 Honda made for a textbook situation on that Sunday morning for someone to post a number from way back and reap the rewards, and it was practically de riguer for any serious punter to take a stab at the mess. This year is really no less so, and perhaps a bit more so. . . . . (There is no time to review my biggest regrets from each season, but on that occasion back in 2005 - which included a meltdown by Wetterich - my final choice of Kevin Stadler(80/1) bumped my second choice of Padraig Harrington(100/1), and it brought me considerable grief from a silent partner I had back then who knew nothing about golf but would always tell me he thought we should be on Padraig, and my inexcusable neglect in putting nothing on Padraig that day was not topped for regrets during the 2005 campaign) . . . So now, today, Jupiter resident Wetterich has had his nose in the competition all week and is still poised in a threatening position to atone for a serious disappointment from the past. I expect at a minimum that Wetterich is up to firing some bullets before he falls back, and if he gets his driver in a groove to match the good place the rest of his game has been this week, then the whole affair could get quite serious.
