So…

It turns out that at least one person was really, really, really hoping Jimmy Walker would royally screw up the 18th hole yesterday at Baltusrol…

As you know, as part of the $1 MILLION SUMMER GIVEAWAY, we choose one finalist at each major to make a prediction of a) who will win and b) what the winning score will be for the chance to win $250k.

Basically, we had no winners at the US OPEN and the OPEN which meant that the prize money rolled over for each event and the prize total for the PGA Championships was $750,000.

Our PGA Championship finalist predicted JASON DAY at -13 so if Jimmy Walker missed that last putt let's say then he would have won it all!!!

I'm telling you, Erik, we were on the edge of our seats yesterday, it was crazy!!

Anyways, this also means that the $750k rolls over the the Deutsche Bank Championship where a finalist will be chosen randomly again to Make their predictions for the chance to win $1 MILLION and there is plenty of time to enter yet.


Man… could you imagine being that guy!?

Well, now that I say that, you have a chance to BE that guy. Enter the competition, and you may be chosen for the chance to win $1M at the Deutsche Bank.

C'mon, Sand Trap members… let's have a member win a cool million! Drinks will be on him! :-)

    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
