Commissioner's Message
The PGA Tour website lists Akshay Bhatia at 6'1", 130lbs. 130. Not a typo. On the BMI Chart, he falls into the Underweight category... and EVERYONE is fat according to that chart. Regardless, Bhatia is now a three-time PGA Tour champion after defeating Daniel Berger in a playoff to win the Arnold Palmer Invitational. Bhatia stumbled out of the gate Sunday, only to shoot 31 on the back and get in position for a playoff. Berger bogeyed the 17th hole to fall one shot back, then went up and down on 18 from 70 yards to force the playoff. When Berger couldn't convert a seven-foot par putt, Bhatia cleaned up his par and earned $4M for his win.

We finally had a weekly winner! Brett Bayouth of Don Neto was the only person to start Bhatia, and it made no difference who else he played because the $8M from the winner was enough to earn Brett the $75 Skin! Had Berger prevailed, we would have had another tie, and the Skin this week would have been worth $125. Nice going, Brett... screwed it up for the rest of us! Seriously, good call on Akshay! He had been playing great golf, but had no history at the API. Your risk paid off! Congrats!

Jeff Bates of Marietta Tee Club held onto the top overall spot, and Mark Weekes of Weekes Wanderers stayed in second place. Ryan Blehar of Foreplay moved into third, and Jeff Book of Bookie jumped into fourth. I will not let my brother beat me. Scott Robinson of Jumbo Ozaki Fan Club joined Brett Bayouth as the Big Movers of the Week, both climbing 29 spots overall. Well done, gentlemen!

Segment 2 continues with THE PLAYERS Championship. This is the biggest chip of the fantasy golf season. The winner takes home $4.5M and the total purse is $25M. Rory McIlroy won last year in a playoff over J.J. Spaun, and should be back to defend, depending on his health. Get those lineups ready! Good luck! Joe
