I start six players this week who are in the top 25 of the World Golf Rankings.

You know it's a bad day when you have the 3rd & 5th & 16th, World Ranked Players unable to make the cut.

And the # 22 player withdrawing.

Leaves me with only 3 players making it into the weekend rounds.

I'm feeling really good about Adam Scott this week. Rory has been very consistent. Dustin finally got some rest. And I want Harris to do what he does best...make the cut and shoot fairly low every tournament.

Coming off my first SandTrap win last week!

I made some fairly predictable starter picks this week. It was a toss up between starting Kuchar or Woodland. Kuchar is far more consistent but I feel like Woodland's time to shine is soon...plus he won this tournament a couple years back. I'm always convinced that DeLeat and Spieth will make the cut, they also contend often on the weekends. Harris English is almost a must starting in the "C" position. The guy is a stud.

Had Perez as a starter, then changed to D A, my bad.

You finished "Tied" for high points with a measly 170 points on an off week. :-P

No chest thumping until you win !!! :cry:

You can thump all you want when your "Top Dog" overall in all fantasy leagues !!!!!!!! :dance:

I'll buy you a "Beer"

Sadly, I slowly drop to the middle of the pack.

I came in 3 or 4 weeks late to the fantasy golf thing so I doubt I'll come in top dog. However I'll take any win I can get! A few weeks from now when I still have a win by my name....no one (but maybe you and me) will remember how i got it. :-D

Had quite an ugly week last week. Onto this week...sooo I can't tell you how many times I changed my mind about starting Bubba or Reed. Bubba has had a lot of success at Bay Hill and he's been playing extremely well. Reed is on fire this year AND his 1st two rounds he usually posts incredibly low scores. Either way I expect one of these dudes to at least be contending on Sunday. Once again I feel like my bench team will probably outplay my starters because that's what happens almost every single week. But I always gotta go with my gut.

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
