Thanks!
BTW i like your spreadsheet
But arent we playin for lowest score of 4 picks rather than their position?
We've been using this ranking system since the Masters. I don't see how we could incorporate the players that missed the cut into an alternate ranking system which uses the player's actual four round score totals.

i'm not sure how anybody could on purpose pick which 4 out of 100 professionals will consistently perform best over a 4 day trial at anything, especially golf. i just play because it is a free 1 in 18 chance to get a tsptalk mug. but i'll never win because i refuse to include tigerobot in my stable after elin permanently damaged his circuitry with that wedge for cheating. that unit is a freak of technology and a loose cannon just waiting to go off. i keep expecting him to walk up to the tee and hit one of those fake balls made of flour that explodes on everybody like that dorf on golf video from the '80's.

The British Open starts Thursday...
Pick 5 golfers...best four scores out of five win....missed cut equals 10 more points than last place finish after cut.
Here's the trophy for the winner.
Deadline for picks is Wednesday at midnight ET. Good luck!
So, best four SCORES out of five doesnt win? And wasnt missed cut already specified as 10 more poimts than last place?

I am the founding father of this golf pool thingy...but I have since turned into an absentee landlord
Here is the original document
I am running a Masters pool at work and thought maybe we could do it here...you pick 5 golfers and take the top 4 out of 5 based on their finish...say your guys finish 1st,2nd,3rd,4th, and 5th(that's my plan)...your "score would be 10....add up your top 4 finishes....low "score" wins...if a golfer misses the cut "he" would receive last place finish plus 10 pts....tiebreaker could be for ex....lowest round shot over four days winsLast edited:

nothing has changed...don't make me smack the shat out of you
OBGibby...please tack on another one shot penalty for scrappy
it's always been the best 4 out of 5 finishes(places) for the golfers
ask another question I dare you

Not enough golfers in red numbers for 2 hrs....?
Good luck to all tomorrow. I will be rooting for Westwood even though i didnt pick him, it was a toss up between him and Luke Donald cause i like both golfers.
Who do i file my protest to for slow play extra strokes? Is Burro the commish?Last edited:

burro schmurro... I'm the golffather...I'll allow you to kiss my golf balls and beg for mercy...I have picked Westwood every time until now...for some reason I thought we were in 1995...westwood's ball striking pales to tiger's... and he cannot keep rolling the rock the way he has for the first three rounds...I think -1 wins it which means tiger has to shoot even to win...Im hoping for a
3way(off the course too) playoff between el tigre, el niño, and el pato...the duck is fearless...he's my pick

i prefer burro churro, because no matter how much you roll me in sugar and cinnamon and stuff me with chocolate, i'll still be a little rough around the edges.
oh no, i'm not the commish, but i do think i would make a great king of the world. i settle for cheerleader though because i'm good at it and it works for me, plus i like cheerleaders. it's not that i can't conduct myself in polite society, just that i don't conduct myself very well.
go, go, go gaarrrrccciiiaaaaa! hit 'em hard and straight hoy mi primo. all we need is a timely electromagnetic pulse and tigerobot will fold up like the tin man in the wizard of oz.
