Massive week at WGC-BI saw me jump up the leaderboard.

The final major of the year leaves us with only five events after this week.

With weather in the forecast, these picks are subject to change!

PGA Tour Fantasy Golf Game

Each week, I’ll trot out guys who I believe who fit the course, the game and the road map, plus add some substitutes. Four starters are supported by two bench players each week. Remember, once a player tees off in your lineup he burns a start, so make sure you need to sub out instead of want to sub out.

You’ll learn a few things about me each week in this column.

Games, like this one, that involve daily substitution options, I am terrible at playing.

I’ll give you my best four starters and two bench options but it’s up to you to outguess me on which rounds they should sit or play.

That’s right and that’s better.

The only devil in my details last week was that I sat Matsuyama the first two rounds. Probably because I SUCK at games with substitutions but you already knew that.

I moved up to 60 from No. 87 with McIlroy and Spieth in the lineup.

This Week

I don’t think par will be a great score this week but it shouldn’t hurt.

The ball-strikers have the advantage this week so that’s how I’m going to load up my lineup and bench.

Zach Johnson’s form and course history though have given me something to chew on.

Brooks Koepka has finished T-21 or better in nine of his last 10 majors.

Based on the tee times and weather, I might change things up!

Alternate Alternatives

Hell, I’d have no problem with these six guys either!
