Cadillac WGC Match Play Update

The new format may have helped the top player in the game reach the finals but nobody picked him. Probably because you'd be stupid to pick him in a non-major. Or would you? He netted $1.8M with the win. The top pick in our pool was Jim Furyk by Mark Wilson. Nobody picked any of the other final four players. I venture to guess this is the first time since we've taken 2 players each that nobody netted $1M in total earnings.

How many of you knew Danny Willet before the weekend? I only knew him because he flipped my boys a ball last year at the U.S.Open.

For those wondering how the earnings would shake out, the WGC did pay players more for winning matches in the pods. It appears the guys who didn't advance were ranked 1-3 and paid accordingly. Updated standings...
