Fantasy Golf Buy, Sell, or Hold For The Bob Hope Classic
Monday, January 17, 2011 at 7:37PM Here's this week's AudioBoo where you can get my "flyer" pick of the week.
Here's this week's Buy, Sell, and Hold:
The PGA hits the mainland for the first time this year as the pros and celebrities head to the Bob Hope Classic. For over 50 years, the Bob Hope Classic has hosted some of the greats of golf and the biggest names from the movies, music, broadcasting, politics, and other sports.
All these worlds collide this week in the California desert where the scoring will low and the competition fierce.
The Bob Hope Classic is just as much about the courses as it about the players who play them. This year, the players will be spread out over these four courses.
SilverRock Resort
Embraced by the natural splendor of the Santa Rosa Mountains, and gently sculpted out of 525 acres of what is considered the last great piece of golf property in the Coachella Valley, SilverRock Resort is ready to take its place among La Quinta's elite golf courses.
La Quinta Country Club
La Quinta Country Club was established in 1959 and for fifty years has been known to the world's golfing community as the "Jewel of the Desert."
Nicklaus Private at PGA WEST
The Nicklaus Private Course, designed by Jack Nicklaus, is considered by many to be the finest course to play in the Coachella Valley. This unbelievable championship layout features a wide array of unique holes, even the most discriminating golfer will be impressed.
Palmer Private at PGA WEST
The Arnold Palmer Private Course at PGA West, designed by the master himself, was the second of four courses to be added to the magnificent 2,010-acre recreational resort development in La Quinta, California.
When making out your lineup this week, you may want to consider some players who play well on one or more of these specific courses.
Buy:
Pat Perez (B) - As a B selection this week, Perez is a solid choice. He loves this tournament, and when he gets it going he can go low. He shot a 60 at the Palmer Private Course in 2006.
Steve Marino (A) - Another player who can get hot is Marino. He's coming off a strong performance in Hawaii and when he has a good tournament, he usually string a few good ones together. Marino is almost a must play this week.
Chad Campbell (B) - Campbell likes this event and usually makes the cut here. Played pretty well in Hawaii and should be a solid play this week.
Ryan Palmer (C) - Ryan has played well so far this year, including two good rounds in Hawaii last week. Let's hope he gets over his jet lag quickly and look for him to have a hot start at "The Hope."
Rory Sabbatini (A) - A T13 in Hawaii. Shot every round in the 60's. That should boe well for "The Hope."
Sell:
D.J. Trahan (B) - Didn't play well in Hawaii. Has played well in here in the past, especially at SilverRock. Keep him off your team this week.
Jeff Maggert (C) - A player well past his prime. Shot a 75, 75 in Hawaii. Was anyone considering playing Maggert?
Ricky Barnes (A) - It's his first start of the year. Give him some time.
Hold:
Bill Haas (B) - Haas won here last year. He's still a bit of a question mark in my book. Take him if you think he can repeat.
There are 5 rounds in the tournament this week. See how your league handles that. Also play begins on Wednesday, so don't procrastinate on getting your lineup set.
Remember to listen to this week's AudioBoo to get our "flyer" of the week.
