Hyundai TOC Update

And we're off! Nobody picked Zach Johnson. Pretty surprising because I don't really deem him "major worthy" at this point in his career. Maybe we just all over looked him. The top pick was made by 2007 PGA Challenge champ Mark Eber. He selected Jordan Spieth who is quickly becoming major worthy himself -- the kid is making bank. 

One quick scoring decision early. Stefen didn't realize Stricker was not leaving the snow in Wisconsin behind for Hawaii. He wasn't in the field therefore he didn't play. As with the other three guys who NP'd he'll receive the last place pay and can re-use Stricker. You can always use a player again if he doesn't play at all. If he starts then WD's for any reason other than his wife giving birth, you can't use him again.

Barclays Update

Coming out hot! Gray with a pick of Adam Scott and Jake with a nice pick of the Canadian Graham Delaet, that's a lot of loonies! Plenty of time for a comeback for all as there is still $6M+ available with your final 5 picks. One important note before someone asks. No the FEDEX Cup bonus money does not count on top of the tourney earnings at the end...


Gray Kitchens - $1,400,000
Jake Louricas - $528,000
Mike Jones - $268,000
Andrew Tucker - $132,000

PGA Update...

Read em' and weep folks. The final regular season standings are below. Hats off to Mike Jones who picked the last two major winners to vault to the top. Andrew Tucker, Tom Roberts and Kyle also had the Duf. They climbed to 2nd-4th respectively in the standings. At the other end of the top 10, Hunter Hughey snuck in by $14,000 over Patrick King when Keegan Bradley bogeyed the 72nd hole.

A quick reminder on the playoff rules. The top 10 players all start back at $0. In the first three events you must pick players you have NOT previously used. At The TOUR Championship you can pick any three players in the field.


Mike Jones - $13,473,380 - $455
Andrew Tucker - $12,009,180 - $358
Tom Roberts - $10,835,643 - $276
