Round-up
You deserved a pat on the back if you went for Danny Lee to win at the Greenbrier last week. However, it didn't take a seasoned golf fan to recognise that Jordan Spieth and Rickie Fowler could realistically win at the weekend.

Since a poll emerged claiming Fowler is the most over-rated golfer on Tour, he's won the Players Championship and the Scottish Open. That's one way to silence the doubters.
As for Spieth, he sealed his second John Deere Classic title in a play-off win over Tom Gillis on Sunday. Not bad preparation for what's to come this week at the Open.
PGA Tour
Many of the PGA Tour's highest-ranked players were in Scotland at the weekend, but there was still a big name challenging Spieth in the Fantasy stakes, with Zach Johnson claiming 315 points.
Lee is in excellent form and also earned some of you 315 points, with Carl Pettersson the highest European scorer in Illinois.
European Tour
The fans at Gullane were treated to a masterclass in world-class golf from Fowler.
Not far behind him, though, were Matt Kuchar, Raphael Jacquelin and Eddie Pepperell.
Miguel Angel Jimenez also picked up big points, along with Englishmen Luke Donald and Ross Fisher.
Overall
Boddington continues to sit out in front with 16,736 points, with Paxton Putters and Kiramy not too far behind.
Jordan Spieth was the highest-ranked finisher in Boddington's team.
