2007 PGA Championship Predictions: Who Won't Win At Southern Hills in 100+ Degree Heat
READ MORE:
I don't really remember a whole lot from Elementary School, mostly that recess was cool, I had way too much hair and that the best means to reach an answer was to first eliminate all the incorrect options. So that's what I'm going to do with selecting the PGA Championship Winner this weekend at Southern Hills in Oklahoma.

One element to the Championship makes this very easy --- it's going to be 100-110 degrees in Tulsa.

Step 1: Eliminate Anyone Overweight
John Daly
could be eliminated from consideration for a lot of reason, but foremost, being fat and smoking doesn't bode well in heat. Tim Herron, no chance. For his sake I hope he misses the cut because it will save his life. Tim Clark, Colin Montgomerie, Lee Westwood, Kenny Perry will also struggle. I know you're not going to like this, but I'm still throw the man boobs into this group. Phil Mickelson will struggle the further this tournament progresses. Not necessarily overweight, but I'm lumping Angel Cabrera in here as well. It's hard to breath in Oklahoma humidity as is, throw in a pack of cigarettes and you've got yourself a mess.

Step 2: Eliminate Mental Midgets
Aka - Scratch off Sergio Garcia and Rory Sabbatini. I can hear it already on Sunday afternoon. Someone was out to get him and didn't properly provide a mister on his face at all times. As for Rory, he'll say something stupid and then fail to back it up. This much we know.

Other guys like the mental cajones -- Bubba Watson is a lose cannon, Luke Donald doesn't seem to handle major pressure yet ... same with CH III.

Step 3: Eliminate Anyone Not Named Tiger Woods
Seriously, can you really go against the guy this weekend? I can't fathom a season without one major win for Woods. It's the easy pick, but this is his type of course and as the most fit player on tour he will be the last man standing.

If you're not picking Tiger, who's your pick to win this weekend?

It has been cool and rainy almost all summer here in Tulsa until about a week ago when it started to get really hot. Today it was 103 around 1pm and yesterday it hit 104. As much as I hate the heat I will be out there watching the first couple of days.

Sabbantini wont even make the cut. He's an idiot. "Tiger is beatable" ya by God but not you.

I really think Rory meant by saying it was that if you want to beat Tiger now it is easier to do it than in the past. He didn't quite articulate that too well though.

I would say lets decide it on the field. But SS doesn't play BA this year.

I am just messing with you. I graduated in 04 and that is when Sand Springs hadn't won a game in like 3 years. Couple of my best friends were from Sand Springs. I don't know if you know anyone from the class of 04 though.
