Valero Texas Open Review

It is now time to review the picks for the Valero Texas Open to see how the results turned out.

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

  1. Fredrik Jacobsen | 2 | $658,800
  2. Bo Van Pelt | 28 | $44,225
  3. J.J. Henry | 121 (MC) | $0
  4. Chris Stroud | 77 (MC) | $0
  5. Charley Hoffman | 13 | $114,375

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

  1. Bo Van Pelt | 28 | $44,225
  2. John Rollins | 113 (MC) | $0
  3. Ernie Els | 3 | $317,200
  4. Matt Jones | 22 | $56,628
  5. Chad Campbell | 34 | $30,151

Here is the comparison of the results for our picks.

Tour Outsider Tour Insider Winner
Total Earnings $817,400 $448,204 TO
Avg Rank 48.2 40.0 TI
Made Cut 3 4 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, 10 wins to the Tour Insider, and 1 draw.

With a 2nd place finish with Jacobsen, I thought that I would better Bolton in this tournament. However, having two players missed the cut knocked me out this round. Ugh.

Looking at the results from the top 15 players in the CLi, I should have stuck with the Kris Blanks and Aron Price. They both made the cut, and placed well. Blanks placed 30th, and Price placed 17th.
