2017 Fantasy Race to Dubai

Post by Mick MacPaddywack »

The Fantasy Race to Dubai game is now live, starting with The ABU Dhabi HSBC Championship:

https://fantasyrace.europeantour.com/

MIght be a good idea to look at the rules to see if there are more changes this year ... I haven't done so yet

https://fantasyrace.europeantour.com/Game-Rules-2c.html

I set up a League for FISO:

name: FISO R2D

The game is very similar to the 2016 version, with a couple of small tweaks.

Key game summary and changes are as follows:

Select a team of six golfers
From your chosen six players, nominate a captain (no vice-captain).
Your captain will have his points doubled
The Cut Replacement functionality is not included in the 2017 game

I'm in.....

I've sent invites out to anybody that posted to the 2016 Race to Dubai blog ... I've probably not got everybody that was in the league last year, so spread the word ...

I'm in.

Gave up after a couple of months last year. The game started ridiculously late and as mentioned the cut replacement was a horrible addition. Looks much better this term. Good luck all

In. The comp looks a lot better this year. I preferred the ten man no captain format but this is better than the triple-double video watching extravaganza of last year.

Haha, I liked the cut replacement, was interesting to see who they gave you and how they did.

And talking of videos, I trust you've all seen the Billy/Rory interview?

Week 1 of The Race to Dubai had Windy Behind keeping on the fairway and single putting to win by a short head to mix my metaphors from The Knocking Shop.
