Tour Outsider: AT&T Classic Review

It is now time to review the picks for AT&T Classic to see how the results turned out.

Here are the results of the Tour Outsider (my) picks.

Rank Player CLi Rank Earnings Rd4 Rd3 Rd2 Rd1 Actual 1 Fredrik Jacobson 10.25 MC MC 101 107 $0 2 Jonathan Byrd 14.90 9 14 27 11 $135,000 3 Stewart Cink 21.35 24 43 55 22 $43,740 4 Zach Johnson 27.85 1 4 5 49 $972,000 5 Steve Elkington 31.90 16 7 20 22 $81,000

Nice, as with the previous two weeks, picked another winner in Zach Johnson. However, I did have one (1) player miss the cut. My number one pick, Fredrik Jacobson missed the cut by a couple of shots. It is a good thing that Johnson played well enough to win.

Of note, I had passed upon on Ryuji Imada even though he was high in the CLi rankings. He placed 2nd after losing in a playoff with Johnson.

Here are the results of the Tour Insider (Dave Shedloski) picks.

• 1 Stewart Cink | 24 | $43,740
• 2 Tim Clark | 72 (MC) | $0
• 3 Chris DiMarco | 93 (MC) | $0
• 4 J.J. Henry | 56 | $12,096
• 5 Zach Johnson | 1 | $972,000

The Tour Insider picked a winner in Zach Johnson as well. However, he did have two players miss the cut (Clark and DiMarco).
