on another note, jb holmes and hunter mahan should be completely ashamed at how bad they are at golf.

was tweeted by @drewby417, idk if he does it every week or not

Add Bill Haas to that list, what the heck happened to that guy? He's been terrible for the past 3-5 months.

In other news, Sergio is +1 on a round that included a bogey,bogey, quad three hole stretch. That's hard to do.

Also, my whole, Anirban Lahiri is going to shock the world and win me a whole bunch of money theory didn't quite pan out like I had though.

See you all at the PGA.

I was thinking more along the lines that Speith wins and the scrubs do really poorly. Guess it would be a lot of golfers that would have to suck and some of the more mid range would have to win.

There was something like 41 golfers at 7500 or cheaper which means only 36 guys cost more so obviously a bunch of the scrubs will finish middle of the pack or better and 1 or 2 will likely top 10 which would be plenty. I guess there is some chance you get like a 7 way t2 or t3 or something and then a T2, T2, T2, T2, T2, T13 type lineup wins, but its basically 0. all but the very worst rounds will still score positive points and given no cut that will be hard to bridge the gap.

Ugh all my picks are killing it except palmer who I have most exposure too. So annoying.

Got killed last week, so I decided to do 1 lineup and put it into several contests (3 double ups, 1 3x, 7 smaller GPPs).

Furyk, ZJ, Westwood, Kaymer, Leishman, and LOLPhil

As they say, "See you at the PGA."

JB Holmes needs to get his **** together, and I'll have a decent showing.

Too bad he is in the "who knew he was bad at golf" category that Jimmy walker also belongs to.

Since it is a small field how many make the cut

there is no cut

would be hilarious if they cut to top 70 and ties like normal though. a MC in a 77 person field under those rules would be devastating.

2003 British Open if they'd had the millionaire maker, I bet someone would have won without the winner. Ben Curtis would have been < 0.5% owned, and since he only shot -1 it's not like he would have had a ton of points to separate himself from the field. So someone with a team made up of 6 guys in the top 10 could have taken it down without Curtis. I'd work out the points but I'm busy putting together my losing PGA teams for next week.

idk, even .1% on 150k entrants is 150 lineups. If you have a guy like Ben Curtis in your lineup then you probably have either Tiger or Vijay or both and they finished t4 and t2. This would basically mean you get 4 other guys in the top 25 and you're good.

The rest of the top 10 was guys who would have been a mix of premium guys you'd struggle to fit with Tiger and Vijay (DL3, Sergio, Goosen), ok players (Thomas Bjorn, Kenny Perry, Freddy Jacobson, and old Faldo), and complete randos who would be no more heavily owned than Curtis (Gary Evans-2 top 30s in majors ever, Brian Davis-2nd major cut he ever made and other was t68, Hennie Otto-first major he played, Phillip Price-2 career top 50s in majors)

I have no Furyk so I can officially logout now that he has a 6 stroke lead.

Well said. All good points, you're probably right.

So we're all playing Ben Curtis in the PGA next week right?

Wait, what were we talking about?

Dustin Johnson and Hunter Mahan need to be drug tested immediately.

If Dustin Johnson birdied 18 at the US open but lost the playoff to Spieth, the winner of the millionaire maker wouldn't have had the winner of the tourney. Spieth was high owned too.

why does it matter? Are you trying to make a team that beats 180k people that doesn't have the winner?

Yes it is possible, but don't try it unless you have a lot of experience.

Well played, not that he needed the help to choke

Just getting into df golf, played the last 2 weeks just freeballin it, and ran pretty good.

Do any of the online sports books give odds to top 10 and/or make cut?

Best site for stats?

Are most ppl trying to use stats? Odds? Astrology?

Topbet.com has a lot of golf bets. Golf stats.com is a great site.

Zodiac signs helped me a ton this week tbh

It doesn't matter. It is just interesting that that almost happened. I highly doubt it will ever happen.

How many lineups do you guy typically make ?
