Fantasy Picks for the Canadian Open

A-Players
Luke Donald: With so many Europeans winning on the PGA Tour this year, it's hard to believe the sweet-swinging Donald hasn't captured a title. He did win the Madrid Masters on the European Tour, and Donald has four top 10s on the PGA Tour.

Charlie Wi: Might be a good idea this week to have a few players on roster who weren't in St. Andrews last week. Wi should be well-rested, and he's coming off top-25 finishes in his last three starts.

B-Players
Retief Goosen: The Goose is quietly moving back up the world rankings list. Despite no wins this season, he does have seven top-six finishes.

Fred Couples: Just because he's on the Champions Tour doesn't mean Freddie still can't play with the young guns. He finished sixth at the Masters and T14 in Phoenix, and he's already won more than $1.3 million on the 50+ circuit.

Sean O'Hair: With the exception of three missed cuts, O'Hair has finished in the top 30 in every event he's entered since March, including a T7 last week at St. Andrews.

Camilo Villegas: He started off hot this season with a win at the Honda Classic, but Villegas has cooled off since. However, he does have a solid record at the Canadian Open: three top-25 finishes in his last three starts.

C-Players
Ricky Barnes: With six top 10s already this season, Barnes is easily having his best year on Tour. He tied for 44th at the British, but he played a lot better than the result. Barnes was undone by a final-round 77.

Brandt Snedeker: He's almost made as much as he did in 2009, and Snedeker has finished in the top 10 in both starts at the Canadian Open.

Fantasy Golf Picks for the Buick Open

If you're in a fantasy league that sets a limit on the number of times you can use a player, the next three weeks could be a little tricky. Tiger Woods is playing three consecutive weeks, all on courses he's done well on -- Warwick Hills, Firestone and Hazeltine.

Also, don't forget about the playoffs. Woods hasn't said whether he'll play all four events, but even with a week off before the Tour Championship, Woods would be playing six of seven weeks.

A-Players
Jim Furyk: With four top 10s in his last six events, Furyk comes to Warwick Hills, where he has a win and six top 10s since 2001.

Tiger Woods: It's really weird to look at Woods' results and see a "CUT". Chances are he doesn't like it either. Expect to see a "1" next to the Buick Open.

B-Players
Nick Watney: The Buick Invitational champ has had mixed results after a great start to the season, but he has yet to miss a cut in three starts at Warwick Hills.

Nathan Green: He's only made two appearances at the Buick Open, but Green is coming in hot off a playoff win at the Canadian Open.

Paul Goydos: He's finished in the top 5 in three of his last six events, and Goydos hasn't missed the cut in his last five appearances at the Buick Open.

Woody Austin: Austin has finished T2 the past two years at the Buick Open.

C-Players
Lee Janzen: The two-time U.S. Open champion is starting to find his game again after a T5 at the Canadian Open.

Charlie Wi: He's missed three straight cuts, but Wi has two straight top-25 finishes at Warwick Hills.

Fantasy Golf Picks for the Travelers Championship

Normally after a major championship the field for the next tournament is lacking star power. Not the case this week as many big names made the short trip from Long Island to Hartford for the Travelers Championship.

A-Players
Sergio Garcia: So much was made of Garcia's return to Bethpage after he was heckled by rowdy fans in 2002. But what slipped under the radar after the Open was Garcia finished T10 despite not having much confidence in his game coming into last week. He's only making his second career start at the Travelers, but Garcia's game seems to be coming back.

Stewart Cink: A two-time champion at Hartford, Cink has finished in the top 30 in his last three starts, including a T8 at the Memorial.

B-Players
Hunter Mahan: This has to be the easiest pick of the year outside of taking Tiger Woods or Phil Mickelson in any tournament. In his last three starts at the Travelers, Mahan has finished T2, Win, T2. Oh, and he almost won the U.S. Open.

Dustin Johnson: The young bomber has seven top-25 finishes, including a win at Pebble Beach.

David Toms: Toms is due for a win any week now. Well, technically he did win, but it was at the CVS Charity Classic. Regardless, Toms has six top 10s this season and a solid record at the Travelers.

Bubba Watson: Bubba's been playing well since a T2 at Quail Hollow. He finished T6 last year at Hartford, and he is coming off a T20 at the U.S. Open.

C-Players
Nick O'Hern: He only has three top-25 finishes this season, but O'Hern has played solid at the Travelers, with two top 20s in his last two starts.

Charlie Wi: Wi's having a really good season so far, with six top-25 finishes, including three top 10s.

Fantasy Golf Picks for the Shell Houston Open

The good news is I've picked the winner for two straight weeks. The bad news is after 12 weeks of fantasy play, my team ranked 24,002. Ouch! (Don't tell my boss there are 24,001 people better at this than me.)

I'll try to do better as we start the spring session of fantasy golf. This week, the Shell Houston Open welcomes an E.B.T. field -- Everybody But Tiger. There are plenty of great storylines as many top players need a good week heading into the Masters, and anyone who wins this week who is not otherwise exempt into the Masters, gets a tee time at Augusta.

A-Players
Phil Mickelson: Coming off an impressive win at Doral, many experts say Mickelson's overall game is better than Tiger's right now. While I'll never believe that for a second, I think Phil will make a strong run this weekend.

Geoff Ogilvy: After Phil and Tiger, Ogilvy has to be a favorite heading into the Masters. He has two wins this year, no missed cuts, and he tied for second last year in Houston.

B-Players
Hunter Mahan: Mahan should have been in the mix at Bay Hill, but several stupid mistakes, including a five-putt, ruined his chances for a big paycheck. I think he'll recover and have a nice week.

Stuart Appleby: A two-time winner in Houston, Appleby hasn't finished out of the top 25 since the tournament was moved to the Redstone Golf Club's Member and Tournament courses in 2003.

David Toms: With three top 10s this season, and no tee time at Augusta thanks to a No. 64 world ranking, Toms has a lot to play for this week.

Rory McIlroy: His first tour through America as a pro has been a huge success ... lets hope it continues this week.

C-Players
Luke Donald: He hasn't finished out of the top 25 in six starts this season. Luke, buddy, it's time to win again.

Charlie Wi: Wi is on a roll with consecutive top 10s at the Honda Classic and Transitions Championship.
