This day in history, Windows 95 was released at midnight. Its time we make history again tonight with these leverage plays!
What do we know about East Lake? For starters, the key is going to sit with good driving skills (accuracy) and around the green play. A bit different than the recent courses and therefore maybe we see a surprise name pop up as a good fit. There is a head start in place for some golfers like Schef. With the Willy Z withdrawal, it makes his chances that much steeper against the field. How will his scoring be impacted?
Prices are also a bit different, with guys in the 5k range and some above 13k. Optimal percentages may be a thing to pay attention to. History is a bit skewed because only the best golfers make it this far each year. However some golfers (Rory, Xander, Thomas) all play this course well each year.
The guys at the top of this list have played well recently (Stallings, Rory) so that has to factor into decisions.
Off the tee gainers who have done well arround the green would start with Rory and round out with Cam Young. He didnt get the win this year that I was seeking but he certainly gained some respect for year 1.
The one guy who hit all the boxes is Rory. He is going to be popular but good reasons with his history in mind. Will look deeper for leverage before lineup locks!
