On His  Way Up
For a rookie, Chris Blakesley's got the competitive fire to move up the leaderboard. And with a little more practice,  could be a player to be reckoned with.
Can Girardi Prevail?n
Andrew Girardi s wants to show the field that's he's not a one win wonder? He faces the same long odds that he overcame in 2008 when he won the Fuchsia.
Ripe For Win No.3
Call it karma or just intuition, but there is something about Ben's recent play that screams with optimism. Maybe it's  a preamble to victory.
