Tour Outsider: Stanford St. Jude Championship

This week the US PGA Tour is in Memphis, Tennessee to play the Stanford St. Jude Memorial Tournament. This is the last tournament before the U.S. Open (at Torrey Pines -- California).

Let's look at the Golf CLi and see who the top 15 players are for the tournament ranked by the CLi figure.

Rank Player CLi 1 S David Toms 9.95 2 S Stephen Ames 14.15 3 S Brian Gay 14.55 4 S Justin Leonard 15.50 5 S Robert Allenby 19.15 6 S Heath Slocum 19.60 7 S Camilo Villegas 22.80 8 S Ryan Palmer 25.05 9 S Bob Tway 29.05 10 S Paul Goydos 31.80 11 S Steve Lowery 33.65 12 S Bob May 34.05 13 S Retief Goosen 34.15 14 S Vijay Singh 35.05 15 S Charles Howell III 36.75

I will go with the top 3 players in the CLi rankings. Then I will skip down to Camilo to see if the "spiderman" can tackle the TPC course in Tenessee. And since Shedloski again only made 4 picks, I will have to stick with 4. If I was going to make a 5th pick, I would have picked Slocum.

So the Tour Outsider picks for the Stanford St. Jude Championship are:

Rank Player CLi 1 S David Toms 9.95 2 S Stephen Ames 14.15 3 S Brian Gay 14.55 4 S Camilo Villegas 22.80

The Tour Insider's (Dave Shedloski) picks are:

• 1 Kenny Perry
• 2 David Toms
• 3 Vijay Singh
• 4 Steve Lowery

We have 1 player in common in this tournament: Toms.
