Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth, Texas will be the center of the sports universe this weekend as the PGA TOUR resumes its 2019-20 season with the Charles Schwab Challenge.
There is a lot to unpack ahead of Thursday. How will players handle the three-month hiatus? Will all the uncertainty help a few longshots contend in a star-studded field? How will a full-field PGA TOUR event look on TV without any fans?
This weekend also signals the return of one of the best sweats in gambling. If you’re lucky enough to have had the pleasure of cashing an outright golf winner, especially a longshot, you know what I’m talking about. Hell, even if you’ve had a player in contention late into Round 4 you know how one bet can transform a regular Sunday afternoon into the ride of a lifetime.
If you’ve yet to experience this patented golf sweat, here’s to hoping this is your week. Perhaps we can help you get to the promised land.
