If the field consisted of Tom Lahmen and Sergio then I think he’d have a shot at another 10 years. But the other argument for someone to take #1 over is that they may canabalize themselves and have a hard time getting the points together to pass Scottie. Hard to see him dropping off anytime soon but my gosh 10 years is an eternity.

Oh, not happening at all.

Just speaks to Tigers greatness.

He lost it to Vijay for a bit and Singh needed that epic 2004 year to get there. The lead was so big.

I think the OWGR used to use a 2 year time period for it's calculation, so there was far less movement week to week, or even month to month back then. Still, as BAR mentioned, Vijay had to win like 9 times in one season while Tiger was moving from Butch to Haney to over take him. Then Tiger followed that up by being #1 for 5 straight years again

Great number. Leggo!

"Note to self- I need to blind tail Reno on his outrights"

I concur...gotta cash a few before he starts charging!

Yeah but he’s slacking, needs to get his priorities straight- post evening before, rank them and message us all, when he posts. Only then would I agree to send $5 for his plays lol

I usually do a few.

Last week was ONE, but was wholly confident and get a unit on it.

I said I'll try to keep it going and invest no more than 3 units this week. Ideally make that up with single plays. But, with 25 LUDGOD units we might as well have some fun.

We have 3 weeks in a row upcoming to make hay before it's big name tournament time again.

Yeah, that was brutal. I was barely keeping my eyes open putting those in at 1:57 am.

I'll be honest, handicapping DFS golf for the first time is why you see names like Ventura and Fishburne.

That helps A LOT.

 

[laopadak]

Keep up the good work @B.A.R. Lots of value left to start the tail now and may jump in

Rai will make a move today. He's still +2500.

Trying to find his under at a better juice.

 

[laopadak]

Rd.1 Mexico 1-0 +3.7. Valimaki top 10 makes it a superb week already.

Gonna keep firing on what should be another excellent day for scoring.

Knapp under 68.5 -115 5u (FD)
Rodgers under 68.5 -150 5u (FD)

GL boys

Money to be made KJ and not a bad tourney on the eyes. Especially when I’m buried in snow and cold

Much needed couple days of from gambling/capping. I won't gamble on ST so that's safe. Was getting burnt. In fact yesterday that applied literally.

 

[laopadak]

Wow- Knapp really shit the bed with a double, bogey, par, triple finish on the last 4 holes. Likely to miss the cut.

Sounds like Theegala last week

 

[B.A.R.]

Aldrich just shot 61

He had pars on both par 5s coming in...

 

[laopadak]

3-2 -1.5u rd.2 Mexico. +2.2u posted.

Knapp initially called for a 2 stroke penalty on 18, resulting in a triple, missing the cut. Guess that was retracted to a no penalty bogey. Lucked out to make the cut

Onto rd.3

That wind that comes in around 3 is a problem for these guys.

I would think a decent guy who just had a bad round going off before noon could have value on an under.

 

[laopadak]

Rd.3 Mexico

Rodgers under 68.5 -150 6.5u (DK)
Olesen 3-ball / Wisky ML +184 2.5u (DK)

Adds:
Smalley under 68.5 -115 5u (FD)
Rodgers under 68.5 -140 (FD)

That’s 11.5u on Rodgers to keep pace, maybe go low. Homeboy better come thru.

GL today boys

 

[chipnotized]

Rd3

Lawrence U 69 -120
Smalley O 68.5 +110

 

[chipnotized]

Rd3 Leaderboard

2-teamer +459

Rai Worse than 5.5
Svensson Better than 10.5

...fading two-gloves on the weekend is a tradition

 

[laopadak]

GL @chipnotized don’t like that we’re opposite on Smalley but one of us will cash

I'm just a sucker for the plus prices.

Best of luck out there today.
