2009 - Week 26 Predictions

We have published the predictions for week 26, The European Open (European PGA Tour) and the Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial (US PGA Tour). Unfortunately, defending Colonial champion Phil Mickelson will not be playing due to his wife's illness. In Europe, Shane Lowry will make his first start as a professional this week. Here's hoping it goes as well as his first start as an amateur!!

The list of pre-2004 champions in the Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial (Golf Predictor uses the results from the previous 5 years) goes back 20 years and includes Kenny Perry (2003), Corey Pavin (1996), Tom Lehman (1995), Fulton Allem (1993) and Ian Baker-Finch (1989). The corresponding list for the The European Open is Phillip Price (2003), Michael Campbell (2002), Darren Clarke (2001), Lee Westwood (2000, 1999), Per-Ulrik Johansson (1997. 1996) and David Gilford (1994).
