Wes is a journeyman pro who grinded his way through the ranks, and along the way picked up 9 professional wins, including 5 Alberta Open titles and 4 wins on the Mackenzie Tour (PGA Tour Canada).

With The Masters only 3 weeks away, I figured this would be a good time to humiliate myself again with some moderately … Continue reading 2015 Major Championship Predictions
It's still pretty early in the 2014 season, but Augusta is going to come quick for a lot of players and the major championships will be underway. Tiger has looked rusty. So has Phil.
