The field for this event isn’t nearly as strong as some of the others that you’ll find on the PGA Tour in general, but one of the men that promises to be popular for this weekend is Luke Donald (Transitions Championship Favorite: 9.50 to 1 @ Sportbet Sportsbook). Donald was one of the most consistent golfers in the world last year, and in the events that he played, he averaged finishing in a whopping 17th place, easily tops on the PGA Tour. He didn’t end up playing in this tournament last year, as he basically took a hiatus from the Cadillac Championship through the Masters, but this year, one of the world’s top players is expected to be here in Palm Harbor. With just two missed cuts all year in 2011, we know that Donald is going to be a steady golfer, and though that doesn’t always translate into victories, it does give you the knowledge that the man you’re betting on is still at least going to be in the discussion come Sunday.

Another big time name that is going to be at this event is Nick Watney (Transitions Championship Odds: 28 to 1 @ SportBet Sportsbook). Thus far this season, Watney hasn’t been the greatest golfer on the PGA Tour. However, he did log his first Top 10 finish in an event when he made it to the round of 16 in the Accenture Match Play Championship, and the very next tournament that he entered at that Cadillac Championship, he came up with his best tournament of the year at -8, finishing in 17th place. He hasn’t shot well on Sundays, posting three final rounds in the mid-70s just in the months of January and February alone, and he would love to use this tournament as a major boost to get back on his game. Watney struggled on Sunday here at the Transitions Championship last year as well, firing a 73 to fall out of contention, though he did finish in a very respectable 13th place.

List Of Past Transitions Championship Winners
2011 – Gary Woodland
2010 – Jim Furyk
2009 – Retief Goosen
2008 – Sean O’Hair
2007 – Mark Calcavecchia
2006 – KJ Choi
2005 – Carl Pettersson
2004 – Vijay Singh
2003 – Retief Goosen
2002 – KJ Choi
2001 – No Tournament
2000 – John Huston

A man that has always played well at this event is Retief Goosen (Odds To Win The Transitions Championship: 80 to 1 @ SportBet Sportsbook). Along with KJ Choi, Goosen is the only other man that can say that he has won this tournament twice, doing so in 2003 and 2009. The South African didn’t win an event last year, but he did post a very respectable 28th place finish last year in this tournament. You can bet that the Goose is going to want to get back in the win column as soon as possible, especially after a disappointing start to this season.

Last year, this proved to be a banner tournament for the young Gary Woodland (Transitions Championship Lines: 66 to 1 @ SportBet Sportsbook). At best 27 years old, Woodland is another one of these up and coming golfers on the PGA Tour. He put together a win for the first time in his career right here at the Transitions Championship. At the time, he was playing the best golf of his life though, as that was his fourth straight tournament in which he finished in the Top 6. To close out the year, Woodland finished in the Top 25 in seven straight events as well, and that definitely makes him someone that could prove to pull off yet another miracle as we head towards the Masters.
