Welcome Back Rory



Elven months after the start of the 2015 PGA Tournament schedule Players are starting to complain about fatique....

God love them.

Jason Day 17 Events.
Jordan Speith 22 Events
Bubba Watson 16 Events
Dustin Johnson 17 Events
Rickie Fowler 17 Events

That's an Average of 17.8 weeks played between five of the top players in world golf and there has been reports coming out from The Barclays last week that they feel they are over golfed, with a few players taking last week off and Sergio Garcia taking this week off too.

In four of the richest tournaments in season ending golf they must have been shattered because the tour is even allowing a break in the season, first of the year, next week to allow players recharge their batteries for the fortnight left.

It just goes to show how much money these guys are worth if the possibility of winning $10,000,000 doesn't energies them.

Between the five above mentioned players they have won $28,507,443 this season SO FAR, that's an average of $5,701,488.60 per player. And remember they have only "worked" 17.8 weeks this year that's $320,308.34 per week,  plus they only work a four day week so that's $80,077 a day.


So with Rory only starting 9 events so far this season surely he must be super fresh and alert that's why he must win this Event. Poor Jason will have played three weeks out of Four, although he's walking on water at the moment he has to hit a break wall.

With the modern professional being so physically fit I wonder if they are tired or just find it very hard to get motivated. Seems to me like these Golfers are getting spoiled and are going down the road of the Premiership Footballer. I really hope not.

But if I was earning 80 grand a day I would only be taken the basic three week holidays like pretty much everyone else.

Anyway our pick of the week is Rory to cruise to victory this. He can't be tired.
