Wyndham Championship Recap and Playoffs...

Congratulations to Stefen Lovelace for winning the regular season. He held off the competition with a wise pick of Webb Simpson who finished solo third. Jonathan Mullikin and Chris Edwards complete the cash earning top 3.

Although nobody moved into to top 12, there was some excitement with Webb's run and six people picking Henrik Stenson. All of whom were too far out of the playoff cut line to jump in, thus the equivalent of a birdie on 18 to shoot 94 -- AKA -- whipped cream on S^*T.

Below are the final regular season standings with earnings. Congratulations to those who made the playoffs. A reminder that you will be now making 1 pick that you haven't used yet until the TOUR Championship where you will select ANY 3 golfers whether you've used them or not.

PGA Championship Update...

Exciting major? Yes, thank you. That was some crazy stuff down the stretch. Always nice to see one of the good guys win their first. We didn't get a ton of movement in the pool but some did move closer to the playoff line. There were 10 people who split best major pick honors and $200 with their picks of Rickie and Hideki. Wow! Just noticed how similar those names are do you think Hideki is the Japanese equivalent of Rickie? Probably not.

The past few years we didn't pick the Wyndham (hell even the PGA TOUR doesn't give a damn - see screen shot below from their website) but we've added it back this year and it will matter as 13-26 are still mathematically alive. Everyone else, well I hope you pick a solo winner and take $25 as a consolation prize. 

Below are the payouts. Pretty simple scenarios for 1st through 3rd.

Lovelace - clinched at least 3rd place. 
Mullikin - will finish 1st through 4th.
Edwards - will finish 1st through 4th.
Kitchens - can finish as high as 2nd.
Blair - clinched playoff spot
Reilly - clinched playoff spot



Regular Season Champ  $800 
Regular Season 2nd Place $600
Regular Season 3rd Place $300
Majors Top Pick ($200 X 4 tourney's) $800
