AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am Preview and Fantasy Picks, and The Weirdest Golf Swing
The AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am is almost here, and I'll be following this tournament and entering several fantasy golf lineups. In the case that you are too, or maybe you just want to stay on top of what's going on in the PGA, here is a quick look at the tournament and my fantasy picks.If you're unfamiliar with Pro-Ams, they're tournaments where professionals team up with celebrities in a unique competition. Unfortunately, in fantasy golf, you can't pick celebrities to be on your team; only professional golfers. The fact that they are playing with celebrities shouldn't impact their play too much.Tournament Odds to Win Dustin Johnson has been on top of the golfing world for well over a year-and-a-half. He's the heavy favorite to win the Pebble Beach Pro-Am, but don't put all of your hopes and dreams of winning a fantasy golf tournament this week on Johnson. However, don't look past Johnson either, who has won this tournament twice.Jason Day at 10-1 is also a strong pick, but I don't think we will win the tournament. He has finished in the top 12 each of the past four years.Fourth on the list is my choice to win the tournament -- Tommy Fleetwood. Fleetwood, who hails from England, will take this tournament very seriously. The U.S. Open, a tournament that Fleetwood has finished 4th and 2nd in the past two years, will be played at Pebble Beach. So although others may be having fun with celebrities, Fleetwood will come out and play like this is a major, and I think he has a great shot at winning it. At 25-1, he's a strong bet.Fantasy Picks: Pebble Beach Pro-Am My picks mostly reflect my thoughts above, after all, I want players in my lineup that I believe can win. You do have to fill out your lineup with players you feel will outperform their price but have no chance of actually winning.Up top, I have Jason Day and Tommy Fleetwood. Both could easily finish in the top-10. Next up I have Brandt Snedeker who may be one of the most underrated golfers in this tournament. Snedeker is 50-1 to win the tournament, but he has won twice at Pebble Beach.Chez Reavie is coming off of a fantastic Phoenix Open, and he'll look to continue that play here. I rounded out my lineup with underdogs Brian Gay and the man with the weirdest golf swing in the game -- Hosung Choi. Hosung Choi swings like I would if drunk and with a squirrel crawling up my leg. Well, there are my picks. Who do you like for this year's AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-AM. Who do you like? Please share your picks below. Who do you support?
