Welcome back one and all to the 3rd M7 of the year - we have passed the halfway house and are into the back 9 of our season
With the US Open tee'ing off in just over a week it is time to get thinking / guessing caps on and get your picks in. Please read the below CAREFULLY. No boo hoos in M7.
An important update - For those of you on the Whatsapp group you may have noticed Tally's phone getting hacked. Whilst he sorts that out it's business as usual. We will keep the same group whatsapp going (link below if you want to join / rejoin) for now, but if more oddities occur we may have to start a new group - so watch out for emails on that. Any strange messages from Tally - please ignore.
Unconfirmed reports that the hacker's picks are likely to be better than Tally's anyway....so there may be an upside for him here
Another point to note is that I will be away until the final day of the US Open - so expect no live scoring until the. final day and limited stats/waffle for this one. Tally will attempt to send teams out prior to tee off
Ok back to the golf....
We are joined as always by our two good friends ’Control’ (the best ranked eligible player from each pot) and his brother ’Norman’ Wisdom (the most popular player in each category - lowest ranked if tied). If either wins a prize (which they have done twice I think, better than most of us….) then that cash is rolled over to the next M7.
It's easy to submit your picks. Just click 'submit your picks' from the menu above - that is literally it
KEY POINTS
· You can submit as many times as you like. Your last entry is the one that counts.
· Deadline is midnight Singapore time (5pm UK time) the night of Wednesday 12th June (see above point on boo hoos). If your entry is not in time, then you forfeit (so get a placeholder entry in early)
· Prizes (tbc): 1st place $5,000, 2nd place $2,800, 3rd $1,600, BOTR (less than 5 through) $600
· OWGR Rankings are attached to email sent out (OWGR week 22) and can be found here - Deviate at your own risk. They are also under the picks so double check there!
Reminder for the newbies…….
1) Pick 7 players that are playing in the current M7 tournament - one from each world ranking pot (1-10, 11-20, 21-30, 31-40, 41-50, 51-75, 76+). You can pick players from HIGHER categories if you so wish
2) Your players earn points for their finishing position, i.e. 1st = 1 point, 10th = 10 points and did not start / missed cut / DQ / Missed cut / invalid entry = 100 pts.
3) Lowest combined total of your 5 best official finishing positions wins.
