Can Jon Rahm bounce back after seemingly blowing his lead for
three rounds at THE NORTHERN TRUST? Will we see another
long time runner-up turned winner a la Ancer and Finau
(Scheffler? Oosthuizen?)? Can Brother Bri pick a winner? Can I
get back into positive $$ territory?
We’ll find out this weekend based on the results in Maryland!
The rules: each picker will get a simulated $200 to bet;
$100 of which will be on win bets and another $100 on top-5, top-
10, and top-20 bets only. The kicker this time is that the money
can only be spent on a maximum of three golfers in each
category. Picking winners has never been so difficult (except for
Parlay Kid).
Here are this week’s plays for the BMW Championship:
