A reminder that this week's tournament is in Japan so it is an early start. Get your rosters set!
-
Yes, I would agree. Long time Fantasy Golf participant and am losing interest in the PGA league. Don't seem to be a lot of options out there unless one wants to move to Draft Kings or such. Being from Canada these aren't even an option.
-
Yes, drag and drop....went to website and did it first, then did same on the APP.....I tried the drag and drop the night before and it didn't catch, so who the hell knows....I don't have a lot of faith in the PGA with their technology. Good luck to everyone who signed up. I am looking forward to the more simple scoring system.

A heads up to the past members, the PGA Tour has changed their App for Fantasy golf. I had to go into the App Store and update it to the new one. My initial take on the new App is a resounding Meh!. I have someone on the bench I want to put into my roster, so a simple swap, and after about 5 minutes gave up. I am hoping it is karma and the switch would not have benefited me. They have also changed the scoring system...more straightforward Stableford type system, with bonus points for top 3 low rounds of the day, and you get 10% of the Fed Ex Cup points a player earns at the end of the tournament. I do like this change. Thanks @Club Rat for posting this.....I've been busy and never got to it on the weekend. The group has dwindled somewhat over the last 2 seasons with just the die hards left....would be great to get some new blood.

So I had a look, and Kokrak is through 15 and playing, Webb Simpson is still teeing off.....I got the alert for Simpson. PGA Fantasy did this once last year and gave false alerts.....because why wouldn't they. I benched Simpson but have now put him back in after a Google search and reading through Twitter, I see it as he is still playing. Louis on the other hand did WD late yesterday it appears; sorry @Club Rat Wish there was a better option for Fantasy
-
I sense sarcasm @Club Rat!
-
This week a disaster for me....Schauffle, Cantly, Fleetwood, Finau, and Simpson all missed the cut....left with Morikawa who is almost DFL in the tournament. Perhaps my worst week ever.
-
Good group here....you will have fun! New segment should start fairly soon too so you will be on an even playing field for the last 2 segment competitions. Welcoome!
-
PGA Tour for the win again @Club Rat. For a global entertainment company, their media is 'sub-par', and not in a golf way!
-
Francesco topping that driver and making a solid bogey was very endearing! Better luck this week @boogielicious
-
Yes, I've always noticed this.....perhaps we need to put a proposal together why we need to be writing their weekly picks articles!
-
Our riots in Canada only happen when a Team loses the Stanley Cup finals, and that is only in Vancouver....which I can see from across the strait while I golf, but as you can see from my profile, I do not cheer for. 😀 On another not @Club Rat from one of your previous posts, I challenge you to come to Canada with an American Express card and finding anywhere that will take it! We're strictly Visa and MC up here....would be the equivalent of showing up with Traveler's Checks.....
-
@Club Ratcomes out of the gate hot for segment 2! In your next screen shot, put up the season standings 😀
-
Based on history @Club Rat I hope you kept the receipt 😉
-
You've been hard at work @Club Ratgot me nervous!
-
Giving the thread a bump...Segment 2 starts up this week in Maui. For those already signed up, remember to get your roster in. For others, you are welcome to join....you will have missed the first segment, but there are 3 more to go that you can compete in....can try and be top dog for segments, just won't be in the running for the overall season race. Go to first post of the thread to get info on how to sign up.
-
Perfect....just in time for the next segment to start 😀
-
My guess it is @Club Rat messing with the system along with his "Super Secret Services". Good luck this week.....then 4 off!
-
We will have to see what the Fantasy Golf Electoral College has to say about this.....one week for the first segment to be over, but then a little time to regroup and strategize your campaign before Segment #2 starts @Club Rat.....hope springs eternal
-
One week left to get to the top @Club Rat...choose wisely.
-
Yes, anyone can get in starting at anytime...and the season is divided into 4 segments, so missing a week hurts the season race, but can still compete for the other segments....I know Rays Creek missed a week last season and still finished 3rd overall in TST League so still possible. Jump on in!
-
Looking forward to getting the group back for another year, but would be great to get some new blood in the mix to take on @Club Rat
-
I just checked and still not able to see the Safeway Open in the tournament pull down menu....hopefully it happens later today. Keep checking. PGA Tour does not always make this easy! Whenever someone sees it there, drop a post for the rest of us.
-
I have done this @iacas and called it 2020-21 TST Fantasy Golf. Hope we are able to build up the numbers, after what was obviously a weird season, this past one. Get back on the wagon @Antneye. Best thing you can do is sign up for the roster alerts; day before you will get a reminder if your roster is set, and you will get an alert if someone misses the cut or WD's.

Who is up for some Fantasy Golf? The 2020-21 season already starts this Thursday with the Safeway Open. Many of The Sand Trap members have been partaking in Fantasy Golf for over a decade now, and we welcome all TST members to join our robust league. In the past, we have played ESPN, then Yahoo, and The Golf Channel fantasy leagues, and have used the PGA Tour Fantasy site since last season; it is fun, engaging, and does not take a lot of time, and from my experience, keeps me more interested in the PGA Tour throughout the season. And TST League is always one of the more competitive out there. Essentially, you have to pick six players per week, and have 4 starters and 2 on the bench; the bench is there to sub in in case of missed cut etc....the catch is the season is divided into 4 Segments, and you only get to use a player 3 times per segment, so some roster management is needed. For example, even if you only put a player in your roster for a single round, it uses up one of the 3 starts for that player for the segment. Points are awarded in each round for each player for a multitude of factors (see link to the rules at the end of this post). To join, you must first go to https://www.pgatour.com/fantasy.html and create a Team. Once you have done this, you go to the fantasy golf to the right tab, and choose the red "Fantasy Golf". Then, you can join the TST Fantasy Golf league by following these steps: Join my league in PGA TOUR Fantasy #PGATOURfantasy Golf League URL: https://fantasygolf.pgatour.com/api/v6/pgaroster/og/object/leagues/id/22988League Name: TST Fantasy GolfThe password is: thesandtrap When you sign up, I so highly recommend that you sign up for the roster alerts, which lets you know if you have not filled your roster before the deadline, and then also alerts you if a player has missed a cut, WD etc. If you miss a week, you can still play along, but it is hard to catch up. Description: PGA TOUR Fantasy allows you to show off your knowledge of the sport by picking a team of 6 PGA TOUR Professionals (4 Starters, 2 Bench). Scoring is live and exclusive using PGA TOUR Shotlink and based on player performance on the course. Play with your friends in a private group or test your skills in one of our public groups. Whether you want to play for prizes, glory or bragging rights PGA TOUR Fantasy is the only live fantasy game where the outcome of each shot matters.Official Rules: https://fantasygolf.pgatour.com/#/roster/rules @Club Rat @Aces Wild @Warren Zevon @mildee @Northwoods88 @coachjimsc @Wally Fairway @Shindig @boogielicious @Bill Fusion @golfguide @DaveP043 @Alanpe @djfajt71 @bruce @Antneye @smdillon @Ballgame59 @vijofrech If you are already a member of the League from last year, no need to join again....just set your roster and our League stays there....I have tagged everyone here who was in last year, or posted in the previous threads and showed some interest. Spread the word and invite other TST members and see if we can get our numbers up. Good luck to all.
