AT&T Classic Predictions

We’re heading to Georgia this week for the AT&T Classic at TPC Sugarloaf in Duluth. Par 72, 7,293 yards, $990,000 to the winner. (These guys are still willing to play for less than a million?) We’re looking at a fast, firm layout thanks to the ongoing drought conditions, what the talking heads are calling a “Florida layout.” Cool lefty note—Bob Charles, the first winner of this tournament 40 years ago, will be on hand to hit the ceremonial first drive before Wednesday’s Pro-Am.

My predictions in a moment, but first, a quick bit of taking stock. Lefty Links historians may already know this, but for the rest of you, I’ve run the numbers to see how I’ve been doing so far with my picks. I began on Feb. 24 with the Mayakoba Golf Classic—so it’s been 12 tournaments, 100 total golfer picks (I began with 6 picks per tournament, then moved to my current 10.):

67% made the cut (which includes one MDF—Vaughn Taylor, you bastard)
28% missed the cut
5% withdrawals
19% top-ten finishes
5 winners, with current streak of last 4 winners in a row

So, for what it’s worth, there it is. Make of it what you will. And now, on to my current predictions. Here are my ten players to watch this week at the AT&T Classic:

EVERYTHING is new! Just launched, Lefty Links is dedicated to the (still rare, and much maligned) left-handed golfer. Lefty Links is:

Lefty Links Blog: In which I bravely (or stupidly) make my predictions for upcoming PGA Tour events (fantasy golf players out there?), keep track of the latest on lefty pros, and more.

Links: There's a whole world wide webworld of stuff out there of interest to us lefty golfers. We've done the Google legwork for you.

The Pros: Not just Mickelson and Weir (although they're here too)--here's info about the people getting paid to hit a little white ball from the left side.

Instruction: Sick of having to translate "right foot" to "left foot" and "left elbow" to "right elbow?" Check out these instructional golf videos.

Forums: A 19th-tee gathering place for southpaw golfers everywhere. Tell us about a golf shop with a great selection of lefty clubs. Complain about your game. Whatever's on your golf mind.

We will also soon be featuring interviews with pros, sports psychologists, and others in the golf world. Stay tuned!
