Look, it’s “Colonial”, ok?
This is one of those weeks where the venue > all and I’m old-skewl so that’s what I’m calling it, just like I call Riviera “Riviera”.
Funny how both of those tracks are “Hogan’s Alleys” as well…
As usual, I’ll be back just after lunch time with my selections for the week but this will more than get you started!
UPDATE: 2:11 pm — my selections added
UPDATE: 2:54 pm — Jimmy Walker added (thanks Mal)
Brand-new venue this week will provide a test with heat, wind and weather.
Trinity Forest Golf Club south of Dallas hosts the 50th Byron Nelson.
Looks more like Scotland or England or Ireland.
It’s Trinity Forest outside Dallas, USA.
It’s unique.
New week and a new course creates a new set of challenges for gamers.
Quick note that Adam Scott, T11 at THE PLAYERS, should be included in the chart below. I screwed up and left him off (Thanks @TheDoughMeister) the list. Thanks to my man Ryan at PGATOUR.COM for fixing me up!
Trinity Forest will play Par-71 and 7,380 yards and will be a brand-new venue to just about everyone who doesn’t live in the Metroplex.
Edited 4: 30 pm to reflect the addition of Beau Hossler as I left him out originally.
All of the recaps from each round will go in here!
I try and evaluate a ton of players each week so we can keep track moving forward.
Biggest field.
Massive purse.
Here’s the OWGR 50 and an analysis of each.

Jason Day closed out his 54-hole lead to win the Wells Fargo Championship for the first time. Win No. 12 for Day gives him plenty of momentum heading to TPC Sawgrass this week.
