Rank	Player		CLi
1		Justin Leonard	3.10
2		David Toms	7.90
3		Woody Austin	9.90
4		Brian Gay	11.40
5		Fredrik Jacobson	16.25
6		Stephen Ames	17.40
7		Bob Estes	18.30
8		Scott Verplank	18.40
9		Jeff Maggert	18.60
10		Tim Clark	19.00
11		John Senden	19.45
12		Ben Crane	24.55
13		Tim Herron	25.10
14		J.J. Henry	26.85
15		Michael Letzig	27.40

I am going to stick with the top 4 players in the CLi rankings: Leonard, Toms, Austin, and Gay. Then I will skip down to Estes for my 5th pick. Estes is a long shot as he has been off the radar chart for the past several years. However, he has steadily been playing better over the past 12 months. Hopefully, he will take advantage of a course that he plays well on this week to keep his improvement moving forward. If he plays well, then it won't look like I am picking someone from my native state of Texas only because he is from Texas....hmmmm.

Below are my 5 picks for the St. Jude Classic:

Rank	Player		CLi
1		Justin Leonard	3.10
2		David Toms	7.90
3		Woody Austin	9.90
4		Brian Gay	11.40
