Fantasy Golf: The ZOZO Championship Preview

In an effort to jumpstart what has been a lagging FGR, we're going to bifurcate the weekly efforts because what better way to get off of zero production than by doubling the expected output. Anyway, today will be strictly a golf preview so some of you can stop reading here and anxiously await tomorrow's rant once I decide which thing is most worth ranting about.

TWEET OF THE WEEK

Apparently Donald Trump is envious of more than just Arnold Palmer's wedge game. Truth be told, I had a similar experience in a country club locker room with Dan Marino and Don Strock so I can relate.

GOLF ANALYSIS 

The ZOZO Championship has a loyal following amongst a certain group of pros, many of whom I have recommended below along with a couple of young studs in Max Greyserman and Ben Silverman. If I'm throwing my cash at a particular group of individuals, however, they would be Beau Hossler (top 5), Harry Hall (top 10) and Rickie Fowler (top 20). 

One and Done Pick: Collin Morikawa

I think you'll be hearing a lot about
Ben Silverman soon because we
know how I tend to fixate.

Other Guy I'd Pick: Beau Hossler

Sleeper Pick: Ben Silverman

This week's Historical Performance Chart honors the recent construction site casualty that most accurately sums-up my day job lately. Someone else's forklift tipped over, landed upon and crushed a scissor lift that we had rented leading to me having to call the rental company and starting the conversation with, "hey, um, you know that lift we rented from you guys . . ."

Note that the 2020 version of this event was played in California for reasons no one can remember anymore.
