Fantasy Golf Picks: Wells Fargo Championship

A List

Starter: Phil Mickelson; Bench: Nick Watney

I swear to everything holy; Nick Watney is going to win another golf tournament in 2011.  I have faith.  I have confidence.  But I also have Phil Mickelson starting this week, because he actually has won this season.  But I still have faith in Watney.  Kind of.

B List

Starters: Matt Jones, Bubba Watson; Bench: Webb Simpson, Hunter Mahan

Jones and Simpson both had impressive showings last week in New Orleans at the Zurich Classic, however eventual winner Bubba Watson now has two trophies in 2011 to his credit.  Watson has also had a solid history at Quail Hollow, the site of this week's Wells Fargo Championship.  At least he does in my EA Sports video game, that is.  Hunter Mahan continues a strong season in 2011 and has become somewhat of a mainstay on my reserve roster each tournament just in case.

C List

Starter: Rory McIlroy; Bench: JB Holmes

Defending champion McIlroy returns to Quail Hollow, the site of his first ever PGA Tour victory.  Let's hope he doesn't "pull a Rory" this week and hit any shots behind the scoreboard or across the street, eh?
