The Majors Dynasty - The Masters

Ok, It's a little late to post this and I'm sorry about that, don't know why I didn't think to do it earlier...

Anyway - here's the deal. The Majors Dynasty will be based on the real results of the 4 golfing majors. The way it works is, each participant selects 7 golfers in each tournament and your team of golfers will receive a point for how they finish in the final standings (first place gets 1 point, second 2 points, etc.) The team score will consist of the 5 best golfers (kind of like 7 card stud - where the 5 best cards count). If you end up having more than 2 players miss the cut, you'll get the highest score for making the cut plus 1. The only restriction is you can only use each golfer 2 times (so no Tiger in all 4 events)

I will post the winners of each tournament at the end of that tournament and the overall winner of all 4 at the end.

Enter if you are interested

Unfortunately, because I was late posting this, I'll need all entries prior to 8:00 EDT

Correct - the 7 golfers you have listed above are only for the Masters. I'll start a new thread before the US Open (hopefully several days before rather than just 1). I'll also post the overall standings (all 4 tournaments) prior to the start of each major.

If anyone needs some help coming up with a list go to:


The Official Masters Website

click the Players link and you'll get some good info on who's in and how they've played on the course in the past.

I think I might be guilty of choosing a better US Open group than Masters; guess we'll know in four days.

After the first day. Early obviously, but not too bad. Didn't think Mickleson would shoot the worst on day one of all my picks, that's for sure.

If you are wondering it looks like for anyone that didn't have 5 people make the cut... you'll get 46 points for every open spot. (That sounds terrible, but if you only get 4 that make the cut at one of the Open championships that number will be MUCH higher because the fields are much larger).

Couples and Scott made the cut...look at the parings for today. Both finished at +8 so I had 6 of 7. Only DiMarco (+9) didn't make it.

Scott teed off at 10am and Couples was right after.

As it turns out - after correcting my mistake on the cut number - everyone had 5 players make the cut - so no huge team numbers were posted. In fact, the last place team is about 60 points behind the leader. That sounds like a bunch, but with the large fields in the open championships that deficit can be eaten up with the performance of 1 player...

Masters Selection Notes


- All 11 players chose Woods
- 10 of 11 chose Mickelson
- The 3rd most selected player was Singh
- 6 of 11 chose Els (so we get a missed cut for 1 of our 2 selections)
- No one chose Zach Johnson
- No one chose T2 finisher Rory Sabbatini
- The highest finisher to only be selected by 1 team was: Appleby (T7)

Masters Results

Lil' Breeze - 113 - with only 5 making the cut 'Lil Breeze was stuck with Immelman's 55 points (that alone made his score higher than the winner), he did get two of the second place finishers or this number could have been much higher.

bsak16 - 103 - only had 1 player miss the cut, but only had 1 player in the top 5 and no one else inside 20 (Weir finished at 20).

Mike1409 - 103 - only 5 made the cut and Olazabal was 44 points of the total.

Ryan S - 93 - See Mike1409, Casey was 10 places better than Weir - thus the 10 point lead.

Tyrith - 79 - Mickelson and C Howell 3 were the high scores here.

Craptacular - 79 - if Scott or Choi had just done a little better...

Breeze - 72 - Like Tyrith or Craptacular, but Weir was slightly better than Scott, Choi, and C Howell 3.

Sublime 2 - 65 - Goosen and Woods are a good start, Casey ends up being a great pick, they help offset Mickelson and Scott.

NoSkillz - 62 - all 5 players are in the top 20 (and he didn't select Goosen)

hoopsguy - 54 - last entry nearly wins the first event. two second place finishers and two 13s, plus Mickelson's 24.

tanglewood - 52 - the great start and the super pick of Appleby carries the day. All 5 picks in the top 20 and 3 in the top 10 (without Goosen). The two players dropped from the team calcuation, Mickelson and Oglivy tied for 24th.

Seven for the US Open - times selected in brackets

Ernie Els (1)
Vijay Singh (2)
Retif Goosen (1)
Rory Sabbatini (1)
Paul Casey (1)
David Toms (1)
Adam Scott (1)

The course this year is supposed to be so incredidibley tough that I think this round may well be a shot in the dark. Why are the USGA so obsessed with a winner carding a 72-hole par? Just because we don't want the leader finishing on 20 under doesn't mean that you have to go the absolute opposite extreme.

Two times for each player means no Tiger for me this week either.

Here are my picks for the US Open, with the number in brackets indicating how many times I've picked them this year:

Sergio Garcia (1)
Jim Furyk (1)
Retief Goosen (1)
Colin Montgomerie (1)
David Toms (1)
Ernie Els (1)
Phil Mickelson (1)

All first timers for me!

To be completely honest the USGA hasn't done a thing to the course, if anything they have actually slowed the greens down a bit. For the members the stimpmeter rolls at 15 for normal play, for the Open they will have them down to a 13.5. They also have lowered the first and second cut of rough a bit.

Guys who blew up, in a bad way, on Day 1:

Adam Scott: +13
Sergio Garcia: +9
Zach Johnson: +6
Retief Goosen: +6

There are probably others that have been picked that I missed, but the ones above are going to have their work cut out for them today to make the cut.
