    I like Geoff Ogilvy at 25-to-1 and Camilo Villegas at 30-to-1 as good potential payouts. Ogilvy has been playing some great golf and Villegas is going to bust out this year. As for Tiger, I think he plays well, perhaps wins a few rounds but I don't think that he makes the final four and doubt that he wins, just because it's his first tournament back. But as per usual, you can never count Tiger out.

    We should also do these golf pick'ems every week like we do NASCAR pick'ems and Movie Pick'ems.

    Camilo Villegas opened with a dominant 7&6 win in his first match. Wow.

    Anthony Kim also impressed by posting a 7&5 win. Those two are sure looking good.

    Other noteworthy winners:
    Tiger Woods 3&2 over Brendan Jones
    Vijay Singh 2&1 over Soren Kjeldsen
    Phil Mickelson needing 19 holes to win over Angel Cabrera

    Some upsets:
    3rd seed Kenny Perry lost Matthew Goggin 2&1
    1st seed Paddy Harrington lost to Pat Perez 1-up, wow.
    Hunter Mahan with the upset over Mike Weir 1-up

    I picked the Jones and Hogan brackets almost perfect in the first round.

    I picked the Player and Snead brackets almost DEAD wrong. My bracket is still very much alive though, I got a lot riding on Zach Johnson and Geoff Ogilvy though. Adam Scott's loss killed me. Same with Paddy

    Also, watch out for 19 year old McIlroy. He really impressed me today
