MPO and FPO. Calvin and Kristin seem like the easy picks. I’m going to throw out Missy Gannon and Simon Lizotte. Missy has been solid this year and I don’t know if Tattar is 100% healthy. Simon seems to be peaking at the right time.

    Are we doing dark horses? I could see Kevin Jones top 5 and in the mix to win. KJ plays great on these courses

    Jomez just showed how overrated Calvin really is /s Kristin should have it

    Simon is one of my favorites but I have to go with one of my other favs Eagle, as long as he doesn’t throw past half the baskets by 100 feet from the tee he has a good chance IMO

    Tattar is unstoppable until proven otherwise. She looked a bit beatable for a round at EO but it didn’t matter because she’s so good she gave herself a 15 shot cushion. Insane level of play from her and if she stays healthy, she is a lock for Worlds

    I know picking Kristin is almost too obvious, but man, she is just on another level right now. She had a really bad final round in the European Championship recently. As long as she’s able to move past that mentally, it’s hard to pick against her.

    I like the Simon pick! Five days is a long time, and he even said he hasn’t won many four day tournaments, much less five. But if he plays smart and his putt is dialed in, I could easily see him taking it down.

    I’d take Tattar over the field for FPO. I just hope it’s close going into the final round.

    For MPO, there are a dozen or so players with a chance. I like Isaac Robinson’s odds. On the flip side, Calvin is obviously the favorite and even injured it’s still Paul McBeth at worlds.

    The MPO field is wide open this year, I love it. Feels like so many different people have a legitimate shot.

    You got Calvin who is on fire this year. The rise of Gannon Buhr and his unstoppable putt. Issac Robinson and his silky smooth form. A healthy looking Ricky who is hitting his stride. Simon who has a ton of wins this year and finally appears 100% confident in his new bag. Then finally you have Mcbeth who hasnt finished outside of the top 2 at world’s in 10 years.

    If I had to choose someone to win though I’m gonna go with Ricky. He’s had a disappointing year and I think he’s gonna be hungry.
