HTWD Picks of the Week: The Memorial

VS

JJ: I'm going no nonsense this week, and selecting Ernie Els for the Memorial Tournament at Muifield Village. Ernie has been close many, many times this year (pretty much should have 2 titles already), and I feel that at a deep tournament (Woods, McIlroy, and Fowler are just some of the names competing) Ernie should get it done. Although his putter has let him down when the pressure mounts, other facets of his game have been to spectacular to discount. It'll only be a matter of time before he collets his victory this year, and it hopefully should very well be this week.


Bernardo: This week I’m going with the talented SoCal boy, Rickie Fowler. The Memorial attracts a stellar group of golfers including Fowler himself. With the current world #1 playing this week, all eyes will be on him, but be eyeful for a possible win by Fowler. This year will definitely be marked as his breakthrough year and the beginning to some uber-golf. Fowler will also be competing in this year’s Ryder Cup, he currently is ranked 8th on the points list, with a few good finishes his spot should be secured.


Recap: Bernardo's perfect choice of Zach Johnson earned him two points and increased his quickly growing lead.
