Is the USA good enough to win.....
Any forecasts as to the winner of this year's Nedbank Golf Challenge at Sun City that starts tomorrow - Gary Player Country Club.
Link is as follows www.nedbankgolfchallenge.com This website is fantastic and gives a good insight as to why this course is so highly rated - it's also long. To convert metres to yards add 10%. This is the field - in no particular order USA represented by: Stewart Cink Kenny Perry Jim Furyk Chris DiMarco Australia by: Adam Scott Europe by: Darren Clarke Luke Donald Sergio Garcia Argentina by: Angel Cabrera South Africa by: Tim Clark Retief Goosen Ernie Els The Goose is the defending champion and Ernie is making his first tournament appearance after his injury. Can the USA with 4 players win this one?? My money's on Ernie (not emotional at all!!) Last edited by petermo : November 30th, 2005 at 07:29 AM.

That's some solid talent there...yes it would be nice to see the Big Easy win this one for his first trip back, however, I think it's going to be Jim Furyk.

I would like Furyk's chances as well, or if not, Goosen or Scott would be a good choice as well.

If you want to see what Tiger's old swing looked like look at Scott. (I have no idea why I just posted this)...Oh, it's because of the Skins Game and watching him on the tee box, really looks like his swing.

What a beautiful course! Makes me miss South Africa - I sure hope I get a chance to return some day!
I hope Els has a good showing, but Furyk has been playing great golf. I sure hope we get good TV coverage for this one!

The winds picked up in the third round and Tim Clark handled them quite well. He keeps his ball low and doesn't try to over-power it. I think he'll emerge with the victory. It has been a joy watching Ernie in his return. The swing looks great, as usual, but his timing is just a tad off. His excellent short game remains intact.

Gotta say, watched Ernie hit one chip today on 18. Looked very stabby to me. Almost like I was when I had my "twitch" on chips. Still finished up pretty close, but it didn't look at all smooth. Normally everything he does looks smooth as silk, but that chip. Didn't like it at all. Hope either it was a one off or I saw it wrong. Ernie at his best is very good for the game.

I remember the year that VJ won the Masters a buddy of mine asked me who I thought was going to win it that Friday and I called it as VJ, that was the only other time I called a winner, pretty sad isn't it?
