Fantasy Golf: Buy, Sell or Hold for Zurich Classic
Tuesday, April 26, 2011 at 6:33AM
The Zurich Classic is much like the city that hosts this annual event, hot, unpredictable, and you feel like you need a shower immediately when you get home.
It's the 11th oldest event on the PGA Tour and past winners include Jack Nicklaus, Lee Trevino, Vijay Singh and Davis Love III.
Jason Bohn is the defending champ of this event that takes place at the TPC of Louisiana.
Here is this week's buy, sell and hold.
Buy:
Luke Donald (A) - He just missed out on becoming the #1 player in the World Golf Rankings. Will that motivate him this week in New Orleans. I think so. I don't see that he has ever played in this event, but go with him this week.
Nick Watney (A) - Four top-10's in six starts for 2011. He missed the cut here back in 2009, but that was a long time ago. He's usually money in the bank.
David Toms (B) - Toms loves this event. He's a Louisiana boy, so this is a big week for him and his game is coming around as well. Has made four straight cuts including a T-3 at Bay Hill.
Matt Jones (B) - Even though Jones has missed tow cuts in a row, he likes this event. He posted a top-10 last year and I like his game.
Justin Rose (B) - Justin is playing some solid golf. He's coming off a T-5, a T-3 and a T-11. He's going to win one of these weeks. A good B pick this week.
Tommy Gainey (C) - How about old "Two Gloves?" He's coming off a third place finish at The Heritage and nobody goes at it harder than Tommy. New Orleans would be a great spot for him to win.
Jason Dufner (C) - Dufner is quietly having a good season. He also finished in a T-7 at the Zurich last year. A must pick this week.
Sell:
Sean O'Hair (B) - Boy is his game in shambles. Missed the cut again last week to make it six missed cuts so far on the season.
Sean Micheel (B) - He's playing average golf at best. No reason to pick him this week.
Brad Faxon (C) - Six starts and six missed cuts in 2011. 'Nuf said.
Hold:
Jason Bohn (B) - Bohn is the defending champ, so if you like defending champs take him this week. He's not playing great in 2011, but he can turn it on at anytime and go low. Streaky to say the least.
Good luck this week, and don't forget to listen to the AudioBoo for our "flyer" of the week.

It is not hard to pick...I was wondering what you all thought the best fantasy golf site was? I have tried Yahoo and it was fine, but I do a lot of research myself every week. It takes a lot to pick...need to try this..

I'm a fan of Yahoo, I've played on there for years.
There's some great points you have made. Definitely gave me something to think about. Golfing is a very psychological activity. You have to keep your mind immediately, your concentrate clear and your assurance high to be able child well. Going from variety to course is far more about psychological training than aspects.
