5 Fantasy Golf Predictions For 2014 Greenbrier Classic
There won't be many big names heading down to West Virginia this week, so picking a fantasy foursome will be pretty difficult. To help you out, here are five fantasy golf predictions for the 2014 Greenbrier Classic.
5. Bubba Watson Will Struggle
5. Bubba Watson Will Struggle
Watson finished third at Memorial and won the Masters, but he has seriously struggled at times this year. Watson has only cracked the top-30 once in his last four tournaments and even missed the cut at the U.S. Open. Look for him to continue to simply go through the motions this week in WV.
4. Scott Stallings Will Miss The Cut
4. Scott Stallings Will Miss The Cut
Stallings has been a mess this year, as he hasn't recorded a top-20 finish since winning the Farmers Insurance Open in January. He continues to finish outside the top-50 and will likely miss the cut entirely this week.
3. Chris Kirk Will Crack The Top-20
3. Chris Kirk Will Crack The Top-20
Kirk has quietly made the cut in all 19 of his tournament appearances this year. He has also finished inside the top-30 in six straight tourneys, including a T4 at Memorial last month. Kirk will be a safe bet to crack the top-20 this week in West Virginia.
2. Jonas Blixt Won’t Crack Top-40
2. Jonas Blixt Won’t Crack Top-40
Blixt won this tournament last year and even finished second at the Masters earlier this year, but he was a different golfer back then. He has now missed the cut in three of his last four tournament appearances and added a T75 as well. Don’t bother with Blixt this week, because he will be lucky to even crack the top-40.
1. Webb Simpson Will Win It All
1. Webb Simpson Will Win It All
Simpson dominated this course last year, as he led this tournament through the first 54 holes. He showed he can compete at The Old White TPC and will be worth gambling on this week. Simpson hasn’t won a tournament since the Shriners in October, but he is my pick to win it all this week in the mountains.
