Yup that's fine. Picks are locked already but we won't take any tiebreakers once the tour championship starts. 

 

Slowly working the formulas to make the spreadsheet work. Hope to get that out to you guys by this weekend.

Tiebreaker:  -16

And here we go:

The spreadsheet is now built.  Just in time for the final event of the season, click that link to see 1) who you picked and 2) where you stand.  Current standings are also populated with the top 30 FedEx spots (obviously) still to be decided.  If the tournament ended right now, @Kenny B would be our champ with @Go Horns! @Golfsam52 @Fc12 and @B Rad rounding out our top 5. 

Still anyone's game!!!!

 

 

Obviously, JT is our MVP at this point (142 points).  Aside from him, here's some notable players that made themselves extra valuable: 

• Patrick Reed & HV3 (135)
• Abraham Ancer (129)
• Patrick Cantlay (106)
• Wyndham Clark (97)
• Jordan Spieth (96)

Winners announced!

 

First, let me extend our thanks to Bridgestone Golf again for sponsoring our prizes for our Playoff Picks contest!

The new format added a lot of interesting volatility to this year's FedEx Cup playoff. Our scoring format, which placed emphasis on a player charging up the leaderboard from his starting position, added even more. @GolfSpy STUDque's spreadsheet has processed all the numbers and the results are in! The highest scoring TOUR players for our contest were:

Tier 1

• Rory McIlroy, 127
• Patrick Reed, 112
• Justin Thomas, 105
• Xander Schauffele, 104

Tier 2

• Abraham Ancer, 116
• Louis Oosthuizen, 100

Tier 3

• Harold Varner III, 135 (he moved up 64 places in the FedEx standings!)

The winning teams in our contest really stood out from the pack. Fourth place, and honorable mention, goes to @artful_golfer, who racked up 486 points with her roster of Brooks, Xander, JB, Jordan, HV3, and Brandon Grace.

The top teams, however, had 539, 547, and 554 points. Who were these savants who foresaw the big moves in the playoffs?

In THIRD PLACE: @Kenny B, who had Rory, JT, Horschel, Louis, Cameron Smith, and HV3.

In SECOND PLACE: @Golfsam52, whose team consisted of Brooks, Paul Casey, Louis, Nate Lashley, HV3, and Joaquin Neimann.

And our big winner, in FIRST PLACE: @Go Horns!, who choose Brooks, Xander, Andrew Putnam, Lucas Glover, HV3, and Joaquin Neimann.

(It looks like picking HV3 was a prudent strategy!)

As a reminder, Kenny B will be receiving three dozen Bridgestone Tour B balls. Golfsam52 has won a Bridgestone Tour B XW-1 wedge. And Go Horns! will be adding a Bridgestone Tour B JGR driver to his bag! Congratulations to you all, and thanks again to Bridgestone and to all who participated!

 

[StrokerAce]

woo-hoo!  

Way to go everyone and congrats on the new gear.

[knightsofnii]

Oh man.  I have written down that I picked HV3, but I have Bryan Harman instead, which is probably right I just have a really bad memory.  HV3, who I've usually picked for other stuff, would have gotten me 4th.

Alas, 59th is good, no?  I made the cut! 

[daviddvm]

Good job guys enjoy the gear

Thanks   

[JohnSmalls]

Congrats guys and gals!  Enjoy the Bridgestone gear and let us know how you like it!

[cynogriffin]

Holy Cow! I got 19th which is definitely my highest so far! Congrats to all the winners and MGS for putting these great contests together!

[Kenny B]
