If nobody chose the correct winner with their first choice, we repeat the process for everyone's second choice.

I'm not clear about how this possible scenario will be judged :

Suppose that 2 people have the correct winner , and one of them

chooses a score 2 shots better than the winning score while the other

chooses a score 2 shots worse . Since both scores are equally near

the correct score is it a tie , or does one or the other

choice carry more weight ?

Thanks for clarifying ,

Michael

I believe the person who posted their prediction first would win.

I'm pumped. This is the first one I've posted in without being an idiot and picking Woods after everyone else did. Jason Day FTW!!!

" If nobody picks the correct score, the winner is the first person to have the closest score for the correct winner"

I believe that part means that it is the first person to pick the closest score..so if two people picked the closest score (within 2 strokes) the first to pick would win.

Contest closes at midnight eastern time zone (just over two hours from now). I probably won't be awake to officially cut it off, but that's when it is, so get your entries in by then. 2h10m left.

      Day 314 - Putting some things together. Better grip/setup, fuller backswing, better finishing position. Filmed some swings, happy with the progress.

      Day 206 (24 Nov 24)  - An easy session with the 54deg wedge and hard foam balls / one simple goal - distance control thru backswing length while not decelerating.  Had a playing partner comment they noticed me decelerating on a couple short wedge shots in last round.  Hit from distances from close to 40yds down to 20.

      Best Shot of the Week

      By Clemsonfan ·

      Musgrove Mill hole #15 was converted to a par 3 after Hurricane Helene. Today, I had 145 from the tee which is a perfect 9-iron for me. I aimed just right of the hole and pulled it a few feet. Clanked off the stick down into the hole and ricocheted out of the hole 13’ away. Drained the putt for a birdie after repairing the hole which was damaged . Not sure if it would have counted as a HIO, but I was pretty excited!

      Day 55 - 2024-11-24 Did five levels of Operation 36 on GSPro (different courses). 🙂 Was -4 from 200 yards (32) intentionally laying up on each hole (i.e. not hitting a 5I or something). Shot… 22, 24, 26 from 25, 50, and 100 yards. I forget my 150-yard score, but obviously it was < 36. Putting was odd… (and I did it with the wedge or a 7I or whatever was in my hand).
