THE ART AND SCIENCE OF PICKING GOLF WINNERS
1. CLOSER with CHARACTER. Certain guys see the finish line and cross it and others are destined for second place.
2. RELAXED CONFIDENCE, FOCUS and a HUNGER to win. It's a mental game and their mind has to be in the right frame with a determination and focus. As Harry Vardon said: "To play well you must feel tranquil and at peace. I have never been troubled by nerves in golf because I felt I had nothing to lose and everything to gain."
3. COURSE. Does the course layout favor the strengths of the golfer and does it expose their weaknesses. Previous form can change immediately for those who feel comfortable on a course and its greens.

He is getting better and better, look for him to be a real contender next year in some of the bigger tournaments. Don't like to say that though, can't stand the guy for some reason.

Not a great closer. Only one win in stroke play event since 2006 and that was in singapore last year in a watered down field.

But give him credit, the 60 is a record on the european tour. never been a 59 unlike the pga tour.

We will see how he rebounds tonight.

in case anybody cares, it will be on at 9 p.m. pacific after the boise state game.
it is on the golf channel.
