The Phil Mickelson Masters Experiment™ was a failure. While Lefty didn't play well, at least he didn't embarrass himself by cutting a whiz in Rae's Creek like a certain amateur (did Ballaster think this was Bushwood Country Club or something?). Some solace can be taken in the fact that my odds of a good finish were slim anyhow. I already used the winner, Rory, as well as other top finishers such as Scottie, Sungjae, and Ludvig. Rose and Reed certainly were not on my radar. Also not up for my consideration was Max Homa who suddenly remembered how to play golf, or the ageless Zach Johnson who turned back the clock and finished well. It is what it is. How about Rory finally winning the Masters though? It does say a lot about goals and perceptions. To a young Rory, the thought of a "Grand Slam" was about winning all of golf's four majors. To me, it was about a plate of pancakes, eggs, and two kinds of greasy breakfast meat at Denny's. Dare to dream!

Exasperated after an emotionally draining Masters, the PGA TOUR drags its weary bones to the low country of South Carolina for the RBC Heritage. Another $ignature Event, this one is. Big bucks are on the line, and I need a rebound, so I will break out one of my remaining heavy hitters. My guy has been showing signs of returning to his good form after spending the early part of the year on injured reserve. He had an okay Masters and didn't really break a sweat en route to a T8 finish, so he should be feeling fresh. From the legendary Class of 2011, let's hear it for the kid from La Jolla, the newest resident of Jupiter, FL, and key member of the New York Golf Club TGL team, Mr. Xander Schauffele!

But that's not all! We also have a deescalated event in the Caribbean, the Corales Puntacana. My guy started playing golf with a charcoal stick and a ping pong ball when he was a kid. His PLAYERS Championship this year featured a memorable (and wet) hole-in-one on the famed 17th during a practice round. Sitting at 148th in the Official World Golf Rankings, he has been making occasional appearances on leaderboards in recent years. With the big guns in Harbor Town, a tournament in the Dominican Republic could be just what he needs to record his first victory on TOUR. From Rosario, Argentina, give it up for the former Florida Gator, Mr. Alejandro Tosti!
