Well, it's business as usual on the PGA Tour this week as a field of 156 players tee it up at TPC River Highlands. I'll be the first to admit that I had bit of a nightmare last week at Torrey Pines, but the gaffer's given me another chance and told me to put the P45 away for another week...

Carl Pettersson
The Swede's showed some fine form so far this year, no more evident than at last week's US Open, where he carded a final round 68 to end up tied sixth. The big man's had three top ten finishes in his last six starts, is smoking 'em off the tee and finished solidly on this track in 2007...
Hunter Mahan
Please forgive me for being a bit safe and picking the form man at this tournament, but it's hard not to like Mahan's form in this tournie. Has had a pretty mixed year so far, but he won here last year, finished runner-up the in 2006 and is coming off a decent performance at Torrey Pines last week. Surely the Orange County kid will come good again this week?
Gavin Coles
Ridiculously long odds on this Australian, which can only be a good thing considering that he's won on the Nationwide Tour this year and has had three top 20 finishes in his last three starts on the PGA Tour, including a tied 8th spot at the recent Stanford St. Jude recently.
