Other Sports: Golf Thread - Majors Draft 2023

[CanadianFlyer88]

Oh, snap!

I obviously select the guy who will win no majors in 2025, Scottie Scheffler.

******
If we're using the same rules as last year, you get points based on where your guys finish. Lowest total over the 4 majors wins.

Scoring summary: The winner scores one point, second place two points, third place three points, etc. If 72 guys make the cut, anyone who misses the cut (or doesn't play in that major) scores 73.

Hopefully that's easy enough.

Thanks buddy!

Is it my turn?

...what do I have to do??

We're picking 4 golfers each for the majors. Scoring is in my quoted post above. Basically looking for the best cumulative finishes for your 4 golfers across the 4 majors.

Using one of my guys as an example, if Scheffler wins the Masters (1 point), finishes 8th at the PGA (8 points), 25th at the US Open (25 points) and misses the cut at the Open where 70 guys made the cut (71 points), his cumulative total for the year would be 105 points (1 + 8 + 25 + 71).

Every selection is unique, so you can't take any guys who have already been picked.

Gotta admit, I like @Young Sandwich and @Captain Dave Poulin 4-somes the best

We always seem to be on the same page with this thing. I really think Aberg is going to get a major this year. He's an assassin when his game is tuned up.

I got saved from taking Speith so that's a positive

Aberg is the next superstar. I tend to pick guys the year before they win a major, so he's right on track.

Tag me in your post(s) when you make your four picks. There's no rush, as long as they are in by tomorrow night.

I took him last year in a pool that had like 30-40 people in it and everyone could take any player they wanted. I think I was the only one to take Aberg...I ended up winning the pool and some nice cash

The guy I weighed against Detry for my last pick was Aaron Rai. Rai is currently -3 through 7. D'oh.

I was eyeing him as well but always seemed to have a better option available at my picks. The double gloves drops him down a peg though.

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

Detry +3 through 5, Rai -4 through 10. Oops.

Edit: wheels falling off for Rai now. Three straight bogeys.

 

[trostol]

i just looked at scores and forgot who i picked

 

[Tripod]

All 4 of my guys off to slow starts...none in the negative.

Might need a zoom meeting to motivate them

Rose with an unfortunate bogey on 18 to spoil a brilliant opening round.

My boy Akshay had an adventure on the back nine: only one par.

 

[trostol]

Did I win?

 

[VladDrag]

-1, E, +1, +3. Those numbers just aren't gonna do it.

Did I win?

No, not yet...
