I apologize, another brief report this week.

Mahan snagged us a T5 last week, to salvage any losses.

Woods looks good to get it done, but if he doesn't I've got some good ones for ya on the next few pages.

As for Yahoo fantasy, here's who I like.

GROUP A will see Tiger starting this week, and I will take Geoff Ogilvy to back him up.

GROUP B will have Jerry Kelly starting with Steve Stricker, while Lucas Glover and Hunter Mahan wait in the wings to back them up.

GROUP C gives the nod to Henrik Stenson, whiles Luke Donald plays from the bench.

Here's the six pack.

No. 1 Hunter Mahan

Look, Mahan is on fire and is in perfect position to bid for his first major.

Give him a shot at 28/1

No. 2 Steve Stricker

Anytime I see Steve Stricker over 30:1, I think it's a good bet.

Stricker will contend at 33:1 this week.

No. 3 Geoff Ogilvy

TURNBERRY, SCOTLAND - JULY 16:   Geoff Ogilvy of Australia hits out of a bunker on the 8th hole during round one of the 138th Open Championship on the Ailsa Course, Turnberry Golf Club on July 16, 2009 in Turnberry, Scotland.  (Photo by Richard Heathcote/

Ogilvy has a proven track record at the Tour Championship, and should always be considered at a major.

Geoff is way undervalued this week at 40:1

No. 4 Vijay Singh

Vijay has a great history in this event, and I think he will show up in a big way this week.

At 50:1 Vijay is worth a shot, for sure.

No. 5 Robert Allenby

It looks as though Mr. Allenby is turning things around, and I think will be a solid contender this week.

He offers tremendous value at 66:1

No. 6 Jerry Kelly

AKRON, OH - AUGUST 07:  Jerry Kelly looks over a shot on the ninth hole during the second round of the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational on the South Course at Firestone Country Club on August 7, 2009 in Akron, Ohio.  (Photo by Sam Greenwood/Getty Images)

He may be my long shot, but he actually is my favorite pick this week. He is always in the hunt at this event, and is actually having the best year of his career.

I almost fell out of my chair when I saw him at 125:1, you MUST throw him into at least a T5.

Good luck this week. I promise next week, the article will be back up to par. No pun intended.
