I'd say the four most likely winners are Woods, Furyk, Els, and Donald. They're all in the same "lower" bracket. Their world rankings add up to 20, and Els lives by the course, and helped redesign it. The "upper" bracket is so called because it contains the number one seed, Michael Campbell, whose WGR of 26 doesn't even make him the highest ranked golfer named Campbell. Its four best are Scott, Goosen, Howell, and Monty. Their world rankings add up to 37. They could throw out the guy with the worst ranking of the four, Monty, and their three best would still have a total WGR of 21. It's bad enough that they seeded Campbell number one. It's ridiculous that they rigged it so that the best players will knock each other off before the final. It's no wonder that even with the highest payday in golf, they can't attract the top stars, except this year when they have to be in England anyway.

All you have to do is find a bookie who lets you make your bets after the results are in.
