Yahoo Fantasy Golf anyone?

Just Joined...can't wait. Never played in a large group like this one.

I joined. Can someone explain how the teams work? I see four available, and four on the bench. What purpose do the bench players serve? Do they play if one of the others withdraws or doesn't make the cut?

I can't find the help page, but I didn't look too hard.... :)

Using the arrows below your players' pictures, you can change your players from round to round, putting them in play or on the bench. Basically makes you follow round by round, then your cumulative score for the week is tabulated. Here is the official quote I got from Yahoo in a confirmation email:

"Your goal is to earn more points than other managers by selecting the players who perform the best in actual professional golf tournaments. Each week you'll pick a team consisting of two A players, four B players and two C players. Of these players you'll select a foursome (one A, two B, and one C) to activate for each round." Hope this helps.

yep thats it, thanks gogolfing. 1 more day until the tournaments begin for anyone else who may want to join. I havent done fantasy golf either, but it seems like a good layout, and yahoo fantasy sports are solid. get ready for the mercedez benz to start tomorrow!

Thanks for setting this up, I cant believe how many people are in this!

BTW, If you have a PayPal account, everyone who is interested could maybe send in $1, and winner take all. Anyone?

[cstorms]

definitely, that sounds good jonathan...i do have a paypal account. I also can't believe how many people have joined, this should be a lot of fun

Well, the first round is over. I didn't do as well as I had hoped, something like 24 points if I added it correctly. How did ya'll do? None of the pre-round info I read said that Vijay was playing injured. Did any of you here about that before today? Maybe I'm just not researching enough.
