Wednesday Preview - The Greenbrier Classic

Did last week upset you? Did the sight of professional golfers struggling to make pars make you cry a little on the inside. Well, never fear, because this week we head to the Greenbrier Classic!

Course: The Old White TPC, a 7,300 yard course that yields more birdies than bogeys. Stuart Appleby famously won the first installment of the Greenbrier Classic by shooting a 59 on Sunday in 2010.

Strength Of Field: D. Unless you're a big Bubba Watson fan, there really isn't anyone in this field that's going to really excite you. But hey, it's events like these that usually create the stars you root for!

Extra Tidbits: 64 year old Tom Watson will play this event for the fourth time. Last year, Watson made the cut and finished T38 on the strength of a three under par 67 on Sunday...Sir Nick Faldo will make his second start of the year, and first at Greenbrier this week. Faldo will also be playing the Scottish Open next week as well as the Open Championship. Perhaps we will also see Sir Nick tee it up once again at Augusta next year?...There is no Tiger Woods or Phil Mickelson this year, which is a different sight from a year ago. Michelson played despite admitting that the course wasn't set up for his game. Many speculate that the owner of Greenbrier, Jim Justice, gave may top players special accommodations to lure them into playing the event. It's interesting to note that many big name players are skipping the event this year.

Fantasy Four:

Jimmy Walker - FedEx Cup leader has a stellar career record here, with the only badge missing being a victory. Has rested since the US Open, where he tied for ninth. One of only two players to finish in the top 10 in both majors this season.

Brendan Todd - Has played amazing golf since his victory at the Byron Nelson. Finished outside the top 10 only once, and that was a 17th place finish at the US Open. Until he cools off, he is someone you should have on your team.

Stuart Appleby - Most people are sleeping on Appleby this week, who shot a 59 here in 2010. He has played decent golf this season, and has a good history on this course. 

Brendan Steele - Two straight top five finishes is enough for me to believe in Steele. Will be competing in his first ever Open Championship in a few weeks, and will be looking for all the positive vibes he can get. 

Last Weeks Team:

Jordan Speith: T11

Jason Day: CUT

Peter Hanson: T46

K.J. Choi: T64
