#	Player	CLi
1	Bryce Molder	5.50
2	Tommy Armour III	6.00
3	Matt Weibring	7.80
4	Ronnie Black	7.90
5	Joe Durant	9.20

14	Chris Riley	32.50
15	Charles Warren	32.90

I cam going to with Molder, Armour, Weibring, Durant, and Stadler. I skipped over Ronnie Black because his solid places of late were in Champions Tour events. So they were not on as strong of courses and fields compared to the other players. That said, Armour has several Champions Tour finishes of late which the CLi used for the calculation. However, after looking at his US PGA Tour event finishes, and knowing how Armour plays on courses like the one the Puerto Rico Open is being played on, I feel he has a good chance against the younger group of players.

Below are my 5 picks for the Puerto Rico Open:
