Rory McIlroy


by Alan Matthews - 3/26/2019

Europeans have taken over the PGA Tour for the past three weeks as for the third straight tournament a Euro was the winner. On Sunday, it was Englishman Paul Casey capturing the Valspar Championship in the Tampa Bay area, becoming the first player to ever repeat at the event (Casey had never repeated at any tournament as a pro). He won by a shot over two players in 2018 at 10-under 274 and won by a shot over two different players on Sunday at 8-under 276.

It was a wild final round at the Players Championship on Sunday at TPC Sawgrass with eight different players holding at least a share of the lead at one point. The one left standing was Rory McIlroy, who hit a brilliant, massive drive on the par-5 16th to set up birdie and a two-shot lead. He avoided water on the island hole 17th and would win by a shot over Jim Furyk. A total of 17 balls hit the water on No. 17 on Sunday, the most of any round this year.

Amazing comeback by reigning British Open champion Francesco Molinari on Sunday at the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill in Orlando. When the Italian teed off Sunday, he was five shots out of the lead - and starting his round two hours before the last group. Molinari fired a 64, including a brilliant 44-foot birdie putt on No. 18, to finish at 12 under, two shots ahead of Matthew Fitzpatrick.

At one point on the back nine at PGA National Sunday in the Honda Classic, there was a seven-way tie for first between Ryan Palmer, Vijay Singh, Lucas Glover, K.H. Lee, Brooks Koepka and Keith Mitchell. Sorry, but one name doesn't belong among that group: Mitchell. So naturally, he won. Mitchell birdied Nos. 12, 13, 15 and 18, the last one from 15 feet for his first PGA Tour win in his 40th career start.

Well, shoot. I was very tempted to pick Dustin Johnson to win last week's WGC-Mexico Championship, and did recommend him at -110 for a Top 10 and +650 as top American, but I went with the Bovada prop of Jon Rahm and Rory McIlroy at +650 vs. the field. Hit on Rory at -105 for a Top 10 and +400 as top European, though.

Interesting Sunday at the Genesis Open as big names like Justin Thomas and Tiger Woods completely faded. J.B. Holmes trailed Thomas by four shots entering the final round - only after both had to play their final 16 holes of the third round Sunday morning. Holmes shot a 1-under 70 in Round 4 and edged out Thomas, who posted 75, by a shot. Thomas three-putted three times on the back-nine in the final round. He finished with 34 putts after not more than 26 in any of the first three rounds.

Well, the U.S. Open in June just got a lot more interesting! Of course, that's the only major to elude Phil Mickelson in his Hall of Fame career. On Monday at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, the same Pebble Beach course that hosts the 2019 U.S. Open, Mickelson finished off a weather-delayed 65, the best final round of anyone in the field, to win that tournament for a record-tying fifth time.

This week, the Tour heads back to California and perhaps the most picturesque course in the United States (it's public, but it's pricey!) for the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. What makes this year's event a bit different from past years is that the U.S. Open will be at Pebble later this summer. It will be the sixth time it hosts that major.

Hideki Matsuyama

World No.1 Justin Rose put a hammerlock on that ranking Sunday at the Farmers Insurance Open as he shot a final-round 3-under 69 to win the tournament by three over Aussie Adam Scott. Rose opened the event with a 63 on the easier North Course and then shot a 66 on the South on Friday and really wasn't ever much threatened.

Unless you cover the PGA Tour for a full-time living, which I used to do but haven't in a decade, then it's simply impossible to know whom every golfer on Tour is. I heard of Tour rookie Adam Long, but I wouldn't have been able to pick him out of a crowd of three at my local grocery store.

That's what I'm talking about! In the first full-field event of the New Year, we correctly recommended Matt Kuchar - at a cool price of +4000 - to win the Sony Open in Hawaii last week. Kuchar led by two after 54 holes and shot a 4-under 66 in the final round for a 22-under 258 overall and beat playing partner Andrew Putnam by four strokes.

Jordan Speith


by Alan Matthews - 1/8/2019

Quite the impressive start to the calendar year for 25-year-old American Xander Schauffele. He entered the final round of the Tournament of Champions at Kapalua on Sunday five shots out of the lead but tied a course record with a 62 and beat 54-hole leader Gary Woodland by a shot. The 11-under-par mark was the second-best score to par in a final-round win in PGA Tour history. It was the largest final-round deficit overcome in the history of the Tournament of Champions at Kapalua. Did I mention that Schauffele actually bogeyed his first hole?

The 2018-19 PGA Tour wraparound season actually began in early October in California wine country with the Safeway Open, but to most golf fans the year annually begins at the Tournament of Champions in Hawaii. That tees off Thursday at the Plantation Course at Kapalua, a par 73 measuring 7,518 yards.

The 2017-18 PGA Tour season concludes this Sunday at the Tour Championship in Atlanta. We projected Rory McIlroy to win the tournament for a second time and Justin Rose to win the FedExCup for the first time. Overall this season, we picked four correct winners entering the finale. We've said it before and will again: Your best golf bets really shouldn't be the winner market (such a crapshoot) but instead the Top 10 prop or head-to-head.

Rory McIlroy

Glad to see good-guy and popular PGA Tour player Keegan Bradley win the weather-delayed BMW Championship on Monday outside Philadelphia, although really Justin Rose should have. Rose, though, bogeyed his 72nd hole and then the first playoff hole to give Bradley his first victory in six years.

Hideki Matsuyama

I figured that when Brooks Koepka won the PGA Championship to go with his U.S. Open victory that Koepka was a lock to win PGA Tour Player of the Year. And he's still almost surely going to be - I doubt any guy has won two majors in a year and not won it.

Rory McIlroy


by Alan Matthews - 8/28/2018

Not going to say much about last week's FedExCup playoff-opening victory by rising superstar Bryson DeChambeau at the Northern Trust. It was DeChambeau's third career win, and he was never much challenged on Sunday in winning by four over Tony Finau. The victory moved DeChambeau to No. 1 in the FedExCup points and just about assures that Jim Furyk will pick him as one of his captain's choices for the Ryder Cup.

Tough for golf to make much noise on the American sports calendar this time of year with everyone amped about the NFL preseason and NCAA fall camps. However, Brandt Snedeker made some news last week by shooting a first-round 59 on the way to leading wire-to-wire to take the Wyndham Championship, the final event of the PGA Tour's 2017-18 regular season.

If you read these weekly golf previews, you know that I spend the first portion recapping how my picks went last week. I'm not going to say much about there here because there's plenty to say about this week's 100th PGA Championship, the last major of the year.

PGA golfer Adam Scott


by Alan Matthews - 7/31/2018

Sometimes, I talk myself out of picking the overall favorite in a PGA Tour event, because what fun is going chalk? An average joe could do that every week. Perhaps I should follow my gut more often. I did think there was a pretty good chance that world No. 1 Dustin Johnson would win last week's Canadian Open after coming so close to doing so twice before.
