It’s a bit like the problem with buses. None at all, then they all come at once. Another major – the USPGA. We can’t cope.
Well of course we can; it’s just a case of re-orientating our sofa sitting muscles and saying once again…let the betting commence.
Padraig’s high up there in the reckoning (wouldn’t that be a ting), along with Snr. Garcia, Westwood and Poulter. Frankly Scarlett, we don’t give a damn, just show us some gob smackingly good golf and a bit of drama. There’ll be no Greg Norman though, he was invited but said he couldn’t make it – something about a tennis lesson…

So who do you think will win? Remember to consider all the American players – of all the majors this is more like a US Tour event. Here’s a link to who’s playing this year: click here. And click here to see the previous winners and their scores.
Usual rules apply; one entry per person please; no entries after play commences on Thursday; tell us your prediction – the player and what score they’ll finish on (either the score, eg 272, or relative to par, -8, as a tie break question) and the first correct answer out of the hat wins a shiny new GoKart. We’ll announce the winner next week.
