Obv you should be penalized ( fairly substantially IMO) for a guy missing the cut.
    yeah for most tournies it wouldn't really matter too much as receiving the +10 or whatever it is would be enough punishment. this course is a bitch to play and if the next 3 rounds continue to go the same way as today with most shooting at least several over par then you're going to end up with some players effectively getting punished for making the cut. too late to address now anyhow...

    Looks like a few of the totals are off on the spreadsheet.

    bootsy should be 16
    sandwich --- 17
    jackdaniels -- 24

    You are right, I had McIlroy spelled wrong for them so it didn't pick up his score. Fixed and Thanks.

    Still lots of golf left for half the players but I'm heading to the track. Update it later tonight or tomorrow morning.

    As of now:

    The guy whom I have played with finished second to last so far at +22. LOL. When I think about how much better he is than myself, it's frightening to think what score I'd post on that set-up. Those guys are freaks.

    An amazing story in the works.....hell it's amazing now.....Beau Hossler just took over sole possession of 1st place. Not bad for a 17 year old kid.

    I'm going to predict right now that Sloppy Joe with picking 2 guys that didn't even play is going to win this.



    I knew I should have picked Jack, Arnie, Lee, Tom, & Johnny.

    Apparently being one of my picks is the kiss of death. I took 5 of the top players in the world and they're playing like amateurs. Well really not as good as amateurs because Beau Hossler is a stoke ahead of my best pro so far.

    I used to work at an ultra exclusive course that had many top amateurs and pro's rolling through, and hosted a Senior US Open that had me caddying for the pro's in the weeks leading up to the tourney.

    It blew my fucking mind how good they were, it is just unbelievable. You just shake your head sometimes, the shots they hit are crazy. They were throwing -4's and -5's up like it was nothing, on an extremely hard course from all the way back at 7,200 yds with lightning fast greens. And these were the senior tour guys!

    All the scores need to be adjusted for players missing the cut according to Rule #3.

    3) If one of your picks or more does not make the cut, whatever he finished after 2 rounds will be added to the
    score, i.e. if Dustin Johnson is +10 after day 2, you will have 10 points automatically added.

    wasn't 100% on this rule, presumed it meant you'd only have 10 added to your total score and not 20?

    If your guy was +20 after 2 rounds then yes 20 would be added.

    I had Dustin Johnson +9 & Ben Crane +10 missing the cut so I have to add 19 to my score. I'm actually +60 not +41.

    The leader is actually Detroit. Nobody on his team missed the cut. Lobster had McIlroy miss the cut at +10 & has to add 10 to his score for a total of +26. It's far from over though.

    Holy shit at the putt that South Korean kid made. I will try to find a video to post, but basically it was about a 40 foot putt with around 15 to 20 feet of break left to right.
