The PGA Tour is at Muirfield Village this week which brings about an idea I had. The PGA Tour should take half its FedEx Cup money and put it in a pool to be distributed to the low golfer at a combination of the three best courses on tour. Riviera, Colonial and Muirfield Village are the three courses that come to my mind, but I could be talked into others.

It would be a Champions League of sorts and really up the ante for those fields. You would have the added sideshow of, say, Jordan Spieth and Henrik Stenson battling on Sunday at Muirfield Village for $5 million while Hideki Matsuyama proceeded to go back-to-back at Jack's place.

Just an idea.

Let's take a look at this tournament:

Field strength: A

Uh, yes please. This field is rife with big names and young guns, both of which I can get excited about. Especially at a track like Muirfield Village.

Story to watch: It shouldn't necessarily be a story, and yet it will be the biggest one at Muirfield Village this week. Tiger Woods is back after three weeks off from playing competitively.

He did make a trek up to Chambers Bay to scout for the US Open, but he's been quiet besides that. He's won this tournament five times. If he wins again this year, and I don't think that's totally out of the question, the furor for the US Open will be ratcheted up to a 14 on a scale of 1-to-10.

Have mercy, that's a list. Big Cat has won this thing five times while Kenny Perry (?) has won it three times. Other champs include Fred Couples, Jim Furyk and Vijay Singh. The winner this year will be somebody you've heard of.

Let's pick this tournament.

Expert picks 

PlayerPickAnalysis
Winner Bill Haas has been playing some solid golf of late and he usually keeps that up here. Haas has top 10s in each of his last two trips to the Memorial. I wouldn't be at all surprised to see him paired with the fellow below in the final pairing on Sunday. Odds: 33-1
Top 10 I genuinely think Tiger Woods is going to play well at Muirfield Village this week. Maybe that's completely delusional, but if he's going to get anything back it's going to be on a track he loves. This one qualifies. Odds: 25-2
Sleeper I'ver grown to love (appreciate?) Pat Perez over the years. He's put together a pretty well-rounded year this season and I love picking anybody at 80-1. Odds: 80-1
