Wyndham Championship

This week the US PGA Tour is playing in the Wyndham Championship in Greensboro, North Carolina.

Below is the list of the top 15 players in the CLi rankings for the Wyndham Championship.

# Player CLi
1 Michael Letzig 6.90
2 Martin Laird 8.20
3 Jason Bohn 25.05
4 Joe Ogilvie 25.15
5 Jonathan Byrd 27.85
6 Charles Warren 31.35
7 Kevin Streelman 31.50
8 Jason Gore 32.90
9 Tim Petrovic 33.60
10 J.J. Henry 34.35
11 Jason Dufner 34.55
12 Scott McCarron 35.05
13 Ryan Moore 35.20
14 John Senden 36.20
15 Brandt Snedeker 37.80

The first two players in the CLi rankings, Letzig and Laird, do not seem like obvious picks. However, they do have a CLi figures below 10. So it seems worth my while to include them in my picks.

After Letzig and Laird, the CLi figures jump to 25 and above. This means that the next 3 picks are up in the air for me. So I cam going to scan through the next 13 players in the list and pick Ogilvie, Byrd, and Henry.

Below are my 5 picks for the Wyndham Championship:
