Jordan Speight is my pick

My pick is Rickie Fowler.

I like Stenson to repeat or Rahm as a 1st timer.

I'm thinking either of the two Justin's Thomas or Rose

I really like the two young guns Jordan Speith and Justin Thomas

Fowler.... Needs it! But mostly Im pulling for Stricker!

We'll going with a veteran Steve Stricker.
Hits alot of fairways and I believe this years winner of the open will come from the older group of golfers in the 40 plus group.

The field is crazy good this year. The weather will probably impact the scoring with rain in the forecast for Friday, Saturday and Sunday looks to be fair weather. Should be a soft course for the weekend.

Jon Rahm is playing great, Fleetwood leads Dubai, Justin Thomas is playing well, Garcia is certainly capable of a win, Fowler is in the chase, and if Dustin Johnson gets a good start he can't be ruled out.

I'll always root for Stricker and Dufner, but I'd place a UK wager on both Fleetwood and Rahm.

All solid picks!

Here are some more picks:

USA: Ricky
UK: Tommy Fleetwood
South Africa: Branden Grace
Sweden: Stenson (duh!)

I wonder with the weather will the advantage be towards more low ball hitters? The US game is all about hitting sky high shots so they could be at a disadvantage.

Going with Jordan this week.

My dark horse would be Kisner.

Rickie Fowler....He's due!

Justin Thomas has been hitting the ball well lately, and hoping he wins. On the other hand, I'd like to see Fowler finally get a win after the stellar year he's been having.

Fleetwood....karma on his side

Deno

Would love to see Tommy Fleetwood win!

Bill Haas

Stricker or Phil

Adam Scott

I'd like to see Justin Thomas win this week. He is an exciting player to watch.

1- Spieth, 2 - Garcia, 3- Rose
