The usual suspects head the field and Johnson is off to a good start, again. Quite a few players at the front of the field in this tournament are likely to carry form Ford and perform well. The players I was looking to oppose were Rory McIlroy, Adam Scott, Tiger Woods, Sergio Garcia and a few others. So far so good!<\/span><\/p>\n

The thing that caught my attention yesterday was Johnson’s move to the top of the leaderboard, I’ve seen this before. I’ve also seen him lose this lead as the tournament progresses, so I thought I would check the stats and see what I would find.<\/span><\/p>\n

I dug into the database of statistics and have reproduced for you the chart that I came up with. You can see clearly that his round one performance is very good on average, but then it slips in rounds two and three. The margin of error in golf, especially at this level, is absolutely tiny so losing a stroke or two can be the difference between winning a championship and finishing tied 10th. So was interesting to see these statistics.\u00a0At odds of 5.70, if this pattern repeats he looks a lay.<\/span><\/p>\n
