In looking at this week's top 5 players in the CLi rankings, they look rather good. As well, the CLi did last week with the top 5. Both last week's tournament (RBC Canadian Open) and this tournametn are new courses for the players, which makes the CLi patterns possibly similar between these two tournaments. So I am going to go make it easy on myself and go with the top, and then get back to studying for comps. Enjoy the tournament.
