HP Byron Nelson Championship Review

It is now time to review the picks for the HP Byron Nelson Championship to see how the results turned out.

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

  1. Brian Davis | 136 (MC) | $0
  2. Brett Wetterich | 32 | $35,317
  3. Charley Hoffman | 72 (MC) | $0
  4. Greg Chalmers | 123 (MC) | $0
  5. Heath Slocum | 12 | $131,625

Here are the results for the Tour Insider's (Bolton's) picks.

  1. Hunter Mahan | 50 | $16,423
  2. Ben Crane | 7 | $189,150
  3. Heath Slocum | 12 | $131,625
  4. Charlie Wi | 72 (MC) | $0
  5. Rickie Fowler | 96 (MC) | $0

Here is the comparison of the results for our picks.

Tour Outsider Tour Insider Winner
Total Earnings $166,942 $337,198 TO
Avg Rank 75.0 47.4 TI
Made Cut 2 3 TI
Outcome -- -- TI

The Total Earnings category was won by the Tour Outsider.

The Avg Rank category was won by the Tour Insider.

The Made Cut category was won by the Tour Insider.

This tournament overall was won by the Tour Insider.

The overall results between the Tour Outsider and the Tour Insider is 6 wins to the Tour Outsider, 11 wins to the Tour Insider, and 1 draw.

It is not very good when more than half of your players miss the cut. That was me in this case with this tournament. Having 3 players miss the cut is not a good showing.

With this loss, I am back to being close to being "halved" again by Bolton (i.e. 6 wins vs 11 wins). As well, there have been 3 tournaments played in my native state of Texas. I have lost to Bolton in 2 of the 3 tournaments (Valero Texas Open and the HP Byron Nelson Championship), and it was a draw in the third tournament (Shell Houston Open). If I don't pull a win out this week at the Colonial, I will be have a big 0 next to my name for tournaments in Texas this year.....hmmmm.
