after two good weeks heres hoping for 3 in a row!!

3 this week.

1)Jim Furyk won here in 2010 and also has a couple of second-place finishes. It's a course that suits his game. And Furyk has been playing well lately -- a playoff loss and two 11th-place finishes in his last three starts.Hes my so called banker for the weekend!(20-1)

2)Bo Van Pelt has four top-10s on the year, a good history at Harbour Town and just a 64 in his last round at Augusta. Serious momentum for this week me thinks!(25-1)

3)Finally my last pick is bit of an outsider.Mark Wilson.He isn't long but doesn't need to be at Harbour Town.Its about iron and wedge play here and wilson is right up there with the best off them.Hes also a five-time TOUR winner.(65-1)

Let me study the field before I make my decisions....

Always enjoy watching this tournament, great golf courses in this neck of the woods.

I'm thinking it could be Ernie's week. He's been playing well and surely those putts will start dropping. Tommy isn't a bad pick, as far as I know he's from that area so you might be on to a good thing. A wild pick would be Brian Davis, was promising at Houston and came second here at few years back.

Paddy's in the field! Surely he'll take positives from Augusta?

Here's a cert the pool to coast into the fa cup!!

As someone who said Bubba Watson could never win at Augusta, I'm loathe to jump back into the predicting game. But here goes:

Luke Donald, Jim Furyk and Webb Simpson to be duking it out Sunday evening.

Padraig and Sang Moon Bae to shine at some point but ultimately fizzle.

I see De Jonge posted a +1 round of 72 so he's within 3 shots at the minute. Did you catch any of his round faldo?

Good jaysus, Bae finished at +12 on the day. A disaster. Paddy at +2 atm.

Furyk going well, Luke not so much.

I have all these guys in my annual pool. It's a pool where you pick your stable of golfers for the year (by mid-Jaanuary) and you're stuck with them. There's no trading. So I'll have to keep rooting for them.

Paddy would want to make a few birdies or he'll be packing his bags.

Hey Dolph Paddy has done pretty good for himself and God bless him.He comes from good old Co.Cork stock you know.The old man RIP was a noted footballer back in the day.As an aside.I have no idea if you are into the trad music but if you are check out the 2011 Fleadh Ceol from Cavan town on RTE player.Some talent on show there my man but only if you are into the music.

Weather is gone mad this year.80 degrees in NY today and it's ony the 15th of April.Tomorrow the 16th of April is when yankeelad left home for the big apple for the first and last time.Good deal of water has gone under the bridge in that time.Went home every year while the old folks were still around but after they departed the scene I lost interest and concentrated on seeing a bit of the country that welcomed me in.
