2012 - Week 1 Winners

In the opening event of the 2012 European PGA Tour season, Louis Oosthuizen (ranked 1st by Golf Predictor) successfully defended his Africa Open. The local favourite won by two shots with an impressive 27 under par, helped by a super 62 (-11) in the second round. Including the winner, Golf Predictor had seven of the top fourteen plus ties (7/17) for the second year running.

In the opening event of the 2012 US PGA Tour season, Steve Stricker won the Hyundai Tournament of Champions (who bothered to show up!). The 44 year old  injury plagued American got his season off to the perfect start with a victory in
the restricted field event. Including the winner, Golf Predictor had eight of the top twelve plus ties (8/15) in total.

That makes it a great start to the season for Golf Predictor, where the top ranked golfers for both tournaments won. This unfortunately rare event augers well for the year ahead!
