Wednesday Preview - Quicken Loans National

I feel like there is something surrounding this weeks Quicken Loans National. Some big news story that makes this event far more interesting than regular events on Tour. Perhaps a big name returning to action or something like that...
...oh yeah, it's the return of Arjun Atwal! I know, I'm excited, too.

Course: Congressional Country Club, 7,600 yards that rewards power hitters. It's been a generally easy track, as evident by Rory McIlroy's run away victory at the US Open here in 2011.  Congressional was founded by Warren G. Harding, the most corrupt president in US history, so...there's that.

Strength Of Field: C-. Yes, Tiger Woods is returning to action, but a lot of players are missing the event, including Rory McIlroy, Bubba Watson, and Martin Kaymer. This event used to attract the big names, but now they all seem to be skipping.

Extra Tidbits: There is an opportunity for players who haven't qualified for the Open Championship to do so here. The top 4 inside the top 12 who have yet to be exempt will get in.

Fantasy Four:

Jordan Spieth

Jason Day

- Don't really need to explain these picks at this point. Both are having incredible seasons. Both are looking for another victory to put themselves into the elite class of players. 

Peter Hanson - I was originally going to go without a sleeper pick, but then I realized that most of the points I have acquired this season have come from sleepers. Hanson has had an incredibly up and down season, but has shown he still has some firepower within him, and he's looking for a big finish to get himself in the Open Championship. 

K.J. Choi - Finished second last week. It's time for Choi to start competing at the highest level again, because his opportunities may start running out. Congressional fits his game perfectly.

Last Weeks Team:

Bubba Watson: T31

Erik Compton: CUT

Ryo Ishikawa: CUT

Aaron Baddeley: 4
