Where will Sergio Garcia be be ranked at the end of 2009?
Current forecast: No. 2 (28% chance
6%)
6%)
Combining all predictions, the current most likely outcome is No. 2 with a probability of 28% (down 6% in last 1 day)
Sergio Garcia has reached a career high ranking of #2 in the world after winning the HSBC Champions tournament in November 2008.
Garcia burst on the scene in 1999 by finishing as low amateur at the Masters, but he became an instant star and gallery darling by pushing Tiger Woods to the limit at the PGA Championship at Medinah Country Club. The instant assessment of his inspired play that day was that Garcia was destined for greatness and would soon start racking up major titles.
Despite how well Garcia has played, he has encountered much heartache, finishing as the runner-up in five big events just in the last two seasons.
In the last part of 2008, he tied for second at Oakland Hills behind Harrington, who also outlasted him at the 2007 British Open. Then Garcia had to absorb playoff setbacks at The Barclays and THE TOUR Championship.
There is no arguing that Garcia played splendid golf in 2008. Winning THE PLAYERS in extra holes against Paul Goydos was his most opulent triumph to date. By the end of the Playoffs, he had risen to fifth in the Official World Golf Ranking - he's now second behind Tiger Woods after winning the European Tour's season-opening HSBC Champions event.
What does 09' have in store for Garcia.........
