Awesome stuff! Should be fun to watch all week and now I've got some guys to pull hard for!

[ChitownM2]

wow, big turnout so far.  417 and counting.  I guess a lot of people are hoping for a new set of irons!

Figure only half that count since the rest can’t read directions and missed rule #2 lol

I really wanted to change one of my picks last night, but the last time I did, the player I picked missed the cut and the one I took out was on the first page of the leaderboard.

You're peaking too soon @GolfSpy_APH!

Do i get the irons for being the top mod?

Scheff and Webb haven't tee'd off so still time to improve!

No mention of Fleetwood... did you pick him just so you know one of your MC players ahead of time?

I'm still waiting on my SM9 wedges for being 1st mod in the Master's pool.  I'll let you know when I get a shipping notification from Rob!

No no I like Fleetwood this week. He has been solid this season and forget who else was in his pool but his name stood out the most for me. I also took all of 8 seconds to do my selections and didn't look at them again till after it started.

You might stand a fighting chance then!  Can't overthink it!

  That's what I thought!!  I always go to the bottom of the list first to look for my name.

At this rate I'm a shoo-in to finally make it into the top 100.  Thank you Rule #2!

Careful, you wouldn't want to incur the wrath of this guy VVV like I did for suggesting that there may be unqualified entries

... Ya make your picks then read a couple articles about Odds of Wining with why's and why not's and then change your pick because Player A has performed poorly on the greens in 2022 and will perform poorly on the difficult US Open greens while Player B (that you were not considering) has great stats for a Major and is a top sleeper pick... then Player A is a top 10 finalist and Player B is a MC. Took me awhile to learn might as well go down with the ship you picked and not someone else's shipwreck because as we all know, anything is possible at a US Open.

that was both the most concise and most confusing description of how these pool picks need to be made.

You must be following me then because I went from steadily to snowballing quick.

[chisag]

... Well I have my old nemesis @bens197 right where I want him at -5 on day one creating a false sense of security. I even threw Straka in as a pick just to throw him off.

Sepp helped me finish one shot out of dead last...I almost won the rusted lost & found 456.14 wedge with the slick green victory and rusted sole...

...Maybe he'll bring you better luck this weekend

Look at @Rickp... T-3.  Because he's laid up, he probably had SWMBO make his picks.  

[Hook DeLoft]

I presently stand at 366th. Liking my chances.

The secret is out!!!!  

[Berg Ryman]

Tell ya what, a @Rickp win would be pretty popular... and that's coming from someone currently t-6

[fixyurdivot]

Today's moving day for Team Fix! 

... or at least I hope so .

[russtopherb]

Tied for 359th.

Just where I wanted to be...
