Canadian Open this week, my country's national open. Hoping a Canuck can finally end the long drought.
 
2016 PGA Championship @ Baltusrol in Springfield, N.J:
Bubba Watson, Jordan Spieth, & Sergio Garcia are paired together first round. I think these guys will feed off each others talent and go low early, and expect one of these three to take the major.
 
Was really proud of the amateur Du Toit. Solid top 10 finish for him. Onto the PGA. A lot of golfers that I like.
DJ, ZJ, Spieth, Stenson are my favourites.

I really like Stricker as a sleeper
 
Too little too late for Day at the end but happy for Jimmy Walker.
Other than DJ, my picks did reasonably well.

Travelers Championship this week with what Looks like a pretty deep field
 
Yep, Day gave it a go with the heroic eagle on 18. Walker was on such an even keel. A lot of players would be rattled, but he kept his cool, Dynomite!(Good Times reference).
 
I'm going to go so far under the radar this week and recommend Ted Potter Jr.

Lefties usually play quite well at TPC River Highlands(see Harman and Bubba), and Potter Jr. is under some pressure to perform to get enough money on his medical extension.
 
For real though, I think Webb Simpson, Martin Laird and Paul Casey are all good value picks this week

I should probably check the field before picking players - looks like Phil and Dustin aren't even there. Bubba is in at -3, & I've been waiting for him to have a resurgence.

Haha. I was going to say. Casey is pretty high up
 
Much props for Mr. 58. I had a couple of university exams so I haven't made a post here in a couple of days.

Heck of a round by Furyk, who I followed at the Memorial a few months ago.
He parred two of the easiest on the course though: the par 5 13th and the drivable par 4 15th. It could have easily been a 56.
 
I like Zach Johnson, Ryan Moore, Daniel Summerhays and Steve Stricker for the John Deere

Stenson, Garcia, Kaymer, and Grillo as an underdog for the Olympics

We have DeLaet(GDL) and Hearn. Both are streaky golfers. If either of their putter's catch on fire, watch out!
Especially GDL. It's the weakest part of his game.

Stupid thing is that it is on TSN2 only. I have TSN 1, 3, 4, and 5 but not 2. Hopefully CBC is also streaming it
 
Loving the Rose HI1. I've been an admirer of his swing for some time now. If only he could sort out his putting.

Congrats to Rose for winning the gold!

Stenson.. oh so close. Garcia and Grillo both finish T8 and Kaymer T15. So not bad picks for me.

Ryan Moore is leading the John Deere so far
 
And Moore takes the John Deere. First corrt winner I've picked in a few weeks
 
Congrats to Justin Rose for winning Gold Metal for Great Brittian in Olymics ima not a gooder speller but its been like 104 years since they played golf
