2019 PGA Golf Colin 'Mulligan' McShank's Start'em or Sit'em Week 9 Review.


The Irish Highwayman's Start or Sit Selections
                                             
           Week 9 The Player's Championship 
                      at TPC Saw Grass, Jacksonville FL, Purse $12.5 Million


2018 Top 5 Players Last Year:
1.Webb Simpson -18
T2. Xander Schauffele -14
T2. Carl Schwartzel -14
T2. Jimmy Walker -14
5. Jason Day -13





Week 9 Starts or Sits for the Players Championship.
One of the more fun tournaments to watch before Spring arrives very soon on our door steps. Maybe what shows up is the Gopher from the movie Caddy Shack seen with actor Bill Murray from the now classic 'playing it through' scene in Karl's living room. Okay I had some time on my hands to think this stuff up when I was on my back last week with a foot infection.
So, let's all pray to the Golf (Gopher) Gods for better scores this week. I wish everyone Top 10 finishes, lots of birdies, and no cuts for the week.
Starts- As always take dependable Justin Thomas to have a strong showing this week in Jacksonville. Rory McIllroy should roll into a top five finish with his steady play. With all 50 top golfers at the Players this week, it would be wrong not to include Rickie Fowler as being in the mix for Sunday.
After a few out of character performances in recent weeks, Jon Rahm gets back into tournament contention. Xander Schauffele may win this Tournament because his game tailored for this course. One final golfer to consider, Tiger Woods, for the shear reason I want something to capture my attention as I channel surf this weekend in my quest to find college hoop games.
Long Shot- Ian Poulter because the last two years at this PGA Tour event, he finished 11th last year and second place the prior year.
Sits: Tommy Fleetwood, because he has been very inconsistent this season as has Jordan Speith.

Good Luck,
Colin, 'The Irish Highwayman'
