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 wins

Ok, i see that was the info from the Masters. What has changed since the Masters or is everything still the same? Please bring me up to speeeeed!
I cant handle no penalties.

it's always been the best 4 out of 5 finishes(places) for the golfers

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?

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'll also prepare an alternate final score spreadsheet with Scrappy's score thoughts to see what the difference is (I suspect not much).

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.

don't do it...keep it simple...next thing you know this will become the LMBF with the many alternative methods

I think it boils down to who can put on the tile floor type greens today!

if Ian Poulter can get to the clubhouse at even he might be holding the Claret Jug come 2:30
