Fantasy Tip Sheet: The Greenbrier Classic
Charles Howell III and Sergio Garcia
| Rank | Winner | Wild Card | Last Week | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 Babineau |
Phil Mickelson Must love the idea of trying to shoot 59. Hey, he didn’t fly across the country just for the concerts. |
Keegan Bradley Rookie already has won once, and has had a better season than most folks realize. |
Winner: Not available; wild card: Not avaiable |
||
 Rude |
Sergio Garcia The Spaniard has climbed out of the abyss and based on recent play appears ready to win again. |
Brendon de Jonge Finished T-7 and T-13 in his last two starts and was solo third at Greenbrier last year. |
Winner: Bo Van Pelt (T-6); wild card: Chad Campbell (T-22) |
||
 McCabe |
Charles Howell III He’s maintained a positive demeanor for all these years and is quietly scripting what may be his most consistent season yet: Five top-10 finishes, including three in his last four starts. Plus, he was T-9 here a year ago. |
Kyle Stanley Nearly broke through to win for the first time at the John Deere. Here’s guessing he finishes the job this week. |
Winner: Ryan Moore (T-29); wild card: Carl Petterssen (MC). |

 Ringler |
Charles Howell III Sneaky good right now is the best way to describe Howell’s game. Five top 10s in his past 15 starts, including a stretch of three in a row prior to a T-28 at British Open. Tied for ninth last year at Greenbrier Classic. |
Davis Love III His current form is as good as anyone’s right now. Love has produced five top 16s in his past seven starts, which includes a T-11 at U.S. Open and T-9 at the British Open. |
Winner: Luke Donald (T-17); wild card: Ben Crane (T-29). |
||
 Martin |
Sergio Garcia Sergio Garcia. His steady play this year will pay off with a victory at some point this season. Why not this week? |
Woody Austin This may be a bit of a reach, but not really if you think about it. He finished fourth at last year’s Greenbrier, and has finished 30th-18th-6th in his past three starts. |
Winner: Lucas Glover (T-40); wild card: Bud Cauley (T-13). |
||
 Miceli |
Charles Howell III Good golf course for one of the underachievers on the PGA Tour. |
Tom Gillis A favorite now that he is healthy again. |
Winner: Rickie Fowler (T-22); wild card: Anthony Kim (DQ) |
