Smart pick.  If nobody else picks Stricker, @Club Rat wins no matter the score (if Stricker wins).

I'm sure Club Rat is glad you announced that to everyone...

He's trying to "pay it forward" because that's what happened to him with his third pick.  He and @boogielicious each chose Hideki Matsuyama at E and -1, I think, and then just to be funny, some jerk came along and picked Hideki with his second pick at 32 under par. :-P (That pick has also since been nullified, but it sure was funny at the time.  Right guys??)

I fail to see any humor in it at all.  I do not know where you are coming from.

Can we as early pickers change our picks as these guys come in at the last minute and poach the number 2 and 3?

No. Says it in the OP.

The advantage to going early is that you can stake your claim. Plus, again, we've never had to go to anyone's second pick yet.

It's a strategy thing.  Do you want to go first and have all the favorites at any score of your choosing?  Or do you want to risk it and wait so you can have a better chance at getting 2nd and 3rd picks that will play?

You can't have both though.

Thanks, that makes sense.

      Jack vs. Tiger: Who's the Greatest Golfer?

      By iacas ·

      Who freaking cares about Tom Watson here? Why do you keep talking about ONE other dude, who overlapped Jack less than you seem to realize? We've been over this: Tiger's 82 PGA Tour wins were against significantly stronger fields than any of Jack's major (or regular) PGA Tour victories. That's what I call "accomplishing more." I don't care if Tiger (or Jack) finished T9 at something. What I wrote is not absurd, because I value Tiger's victories as more difficult than Jack's. Just as I would if, say, Scottie Scheffler gets to 11 or 12 majors in his career. You've now earned your timeout. I'm not a fan of repeating myself or discussing things with the intellectually dishonest.

      Jack vs. Tiger: Who's the Greatest Golfer?

      By GolfSwami ·

      Tom Watson's peak ability possibilty surpasses Jack. He won 6 PGA Tour    No he did not. That is factually false. Just on the face, what you just wrote should immediately seem absurd to you. You are golf pro. Have you not followed golf the last 15 years at all?

      Jack vs. Tiger: Who's the Greatest Golfer?

      By iacas ·

      Dude, for the umpteenth time now… Someone achieving less in more time is not a good argument. When he wasn't playing golf? Yeah, wow, what a statement! FFS, man. No, it isn't. Tiger won more PGA Tour events, each of which had stronger and deeper fields than any of the major victories Jack had. Jack played against (slightly exaggerating) ten year olds. Cool for him, easy way to rack up top tens, top threes, and wins. I don't care about that. Tiger set more strokes gained and scoring average records than Jack ever did, even over a LONGER period of time (if you want to keep pushing that, which is dumb). Ha, bull.
