 Posted: Mon Apr 07, 2008 12:35 pm Post subject: US Masters Golf CHALLENGE |
|
|
It's the US Masters this week (Thurs 10th - Sun 13th) and consequently OLBG have agreed to run a competition for us all
How to play >
* Pick 5 golfers > one from EACH of the Groups listed below (ie one golfer from Group A, one golfer from Group B, one golfer from Group C, etc)
* Nominate the winning score in this event (par is 288 so if you think the winning score will be 10 under par, please state 278)
Scoring >
* Each player will have a final score - this will be the sum of their 4 rounds of golf (eg if he scores 66,71,69,73 then total score will be 279)
* your 5 nominated players will have their scores added together - the competition entrant with the lowest overall total after the 4th round will win
* Any player who misses the cut will have his score after 2 rounds doubled (eg if he scores 75, 77... then his total score will be 152 x 2 = 304)
* Playoffs do not count - the scores will be totalled after Round 4
* Any player withdrawing during the event at any time will have a score of 310 allocated to them
Tiebreaker >
* If we have entrants with the same score at the end in the TOP 3 ONLY, then a tiebreaker will come into play - this will be whoever is closest to the winning score for the tournament. If it is still tied after that, then it will be the entrant who had the winner amongst his/her 5 picks. If it is still tied after that then it will be whoever posted their entry first.
Prizes > OLBG have kindly agreed there will be prize money as follows >
Winner £15
Runner-Up £10
3rd £5
How to enter >
* Please post your 5 picks (remember, one from EACH group) and your tiebreaker (winning score) before this THURS 10th APR at 11AM UK time
thanks and good luck to all!
