Fantasy Four :: RBC Heritage

April 9, 2012 By Damian Daniels 52 Comments

Usually the Texas Open follows the Masters, but we’re headed to Hilton Head for The Verizon Heritage, The Heritage, the RBC Heritage! I love this event. I think it’s a great follow up to the Masters. Also, it’s hosted by a Canadian Bank. They also host the RBC Canadian Open and are a great sponsor to a lot of golfers like Luke D and Kuchar.

Defending champ Brandt Snedeker rolls into town after a 2011 playoff with Luke Donald. Both are back this year after both making the cut at Augusta.

This is event 3/5 in Month 4 and Event 15 overall.

Fantasy Four :: 2012 Masters

April 2, 2012 By Damian Daniels 62 Comments

*sniff sniff* What’s the smell? Amen Corner, green jackets and Magnolia Lane. It’s Masters week!

Personally, I think the theme of the 2012 Masters should be “Clash of the Titans”. I really think it will come down to a Tiger, Phil, Luke D, Rory and Westwood showdown.

This is event 2/5 in Month 4 and Event 14 overall.
