Time is tight with this event going off tomorrow, so we'll waste no time with waffle and dive right into our selections this week.

There's a strong link between form at the Colonial Country Club and this track since it moved here at the start of the Millenium, and so it's worth casting our eyes back a few weeks to see who went well in the Dean and DeLuca. In the past Steve Stricker, Zach Johnson, Jordan Spieth and Kenny Perry have all done the double.
One man who went there well this season is Danny Lee as he claimed 6th place. He was 3rd here in 2015, and has been on a decent run of form lately including 3rd at the Travelers and 5th at the Byron International. He definitely fits the bill of a potential winner, and is available at 20/1 with Coral's who are paying 7 places.
1pt e/w Danny Lee at 20/1 with Corals (7 places 1/5 odds)
Our second pick is another man who went well in the Dean and DeLuca, finishing a season best 12th. Scott Brown is hardly a man to fancy at the moment, but that result, coupled with his previous form here suggests he could be one to over achieve. He's finished 5th, 7th, 16th and 22nd here among his last five starts. In fact, 12 of his last 18 rounds at this track has been in the 60's so he's Mr Consistent - he's never shot more than 71.
At 100/1 with Corals, and 8/1 for a Top 10, he looks a great shout to put in his best performance of the season.
0.5pts e/w Scott Brown at 100/1 with Corals (7 places 1/5 odds)
1pt Scott Brown to finish in the Top 10 at 8/1
