Twofer Tuesday: Australian PGA Championship

After every week chilling in Australia to watch the Presidents Cup, Twofer Tuesday leaps back into action at the Australian PGA Championship.

Two-time defending champ Cameron Smith

The Australian PGA Championship changed into rescheduled this yr because of the Presidents Cup but could be performed on the identical venue because it has the closing six years -- the RACV Royal Pines Resort on the Gold Coast. And the protecting champion this year is similar to ultimate yr -- two-time winner Cameron Smith, who is coming off a definitely satisfactory Presidents Cup overall performance where he took down Justin Thomas inside the singles.

Enough of what you recognize. Let's get to the selections!

  • My Top10er this year is Cameron Smith. I know the money is on Smith to get three in a row, especially after his performance last week at Royal Melbourne. And he certainly is riding a high coming into this event. But I think someone else has the inside track this year...
  • And that player, my winner, is Adam Scott. I think Adam has a lot of pent-up emotion after last week, emotion that could lift him to another win at this event. (He won the first playing at RACV Royal Pines Resort in 2013.) Adam went 2-2-1 and should have a renewed belief in what he is capable of after the International Team nearly pulled off the upset. I think he has the advantage over Smith this week.
