We will be using a Modified Stableford Scoring System for this contest.

Here is what you will do:

Pick 6 golfers total.

At the end of the tournament, we will use the top 4 scores you have of your 6 golfers for the week. This is whether they make the cut(s) or not. I do not know if that will come into play but it will make things interesting along the way.

The total points of your best 4 golfers for the week will be added together for your final score.

Here is the scoring system:

• Ace/Double Eagle: 10 points
• Eagle: 6 points
• Birdie: 3 points
• Par: 0 points
• Bogey: -1 points
• Double/Triple Bogey/Worse: -2 points



We'll use a tiebreaker system as well in case it is needed.


Example Entry

1. Tiger Woods
2. Brooks Koepka
3. Matt Kuchar
4. Rory McIlroy
5. Patrick Cantlay
6. Phil Mickelson


Tiebreaker #1 = Total score in relation to par (i.e. -2)
Tiebreaker #2 = Lowest round of the tournament (i.e 66)


***If we still have a tie, the pot splits into equal portions


Strategy:

This will be a fun test because you will need to mix your team with some solid guys, some guys you know will make the cut and also a guy or two who could help with lots of birdies and not too many blow-up holes.


Rules:

-No aliases
-All entries must be in by 10:30 am eastern on Thursday, June 13th
-One entry per member
-Have fun, talk smack. I do this to reward our great members and for us to enjoy the 'off-season'.

Prize:

100.00 Cash

I noticed the “no aliases” rule. Who the heck is this “Tiger” fella? I vote that all those entries be omitted from the contest.

The first time I don’t take Gary Woodland in the contest here or at work and he’s -8 and in 1st by himself. FML

I've taken him a handful of time to outright win just to see one round do him in .. so... I get it.
 
I thought someone had Gary, but I was thinking of another pool.

I have like half of this done but am simply running out of time for sleep (need to be up in 4.5 hours).

I'll try and update as we go tomorrow...no guarantees but once I am done with work/etc I'll get on this.
 
Ok got an hour of work left and finally finish this. I was a zombie last night. Might come to tiebreakers...
 
Alright, we have B2B US Open Winner here at CTG!
