Dicky Pride 0.5 ew 250/1 1/4 4 Coral Below is what I wrote before the off and he started off with a solid -4 from a late tee time Whilst we may have left Liverpool behind last week there is a certain ring of a Beatles song to my other pick. It was 20 years ago today..... (well next week!) that this player won his one and only PGA tour event the St Jude Classic. His career has been plagued by injuries ever since but every now and then he turns up on the leaderboard. In 2001 he led here at the cut before fading to 14th behind eventual winner Scott Verplank. What caught my eye was the fact that his last two top five finishes in the last two years came at the Reno Open and Byron Nelson - 5th and 2nd and Scott Verplank has won both of those events as well. There may not be anything in it but Verplank and the man who was 2nd in 2001 Bob Estes have good records at Southwind - the venue of our mans one win. So let me introduce to you the one and only Dicky Pride
