2016 Fiso Golf Prize Series * Final Table *

Post by SamD »

2016 Fantasy FISO Golf Series: Season Four

The free-to-play prize competition launches for a fourth year.
Series covers seven high-ranking events beginning with The Masters this Thursday.

Tournament Schedule
  • 7-Apr - The Masters
    12 May - Players Championship
    16 Jun - US Open
    14 Jul - The Open
    28 Jul - US PGA Championship
    22 Sep - FedEx US Tour Championship
    17 Nov - Dubai Tour Championship
Prizes (£50 total)
Two best performers - over any five of the seven events - will receive awards.
So you can miss or struggle in a tournament or two and still be in contention.
Overall winner will have entry fee paid to any Fiso 2017 sports league up to a value of £25.
Top two also receive a Fiso Sports Champion designer mug.

How To Play
Every golfer in the field is allocated a rating.
To enter, simply pick a team of five from the list further below.
Ensure your team's combined rating doesn't exceed 20.
If you change your mind please post afresh (do NOT edit original).
Deadline to provide selections is noon BST, Thurs 7 April.

Event Scoring
Points are based on a golfer's performance against par in each round;
eg: two under par = -2 pts.
Lowest combined points total over four rounds will determine an event winner.
Where scores are level, tie-break sequence is as
  • lower total rating;
    fewer transfers used;
    earlier unedited entry post-time.
A golfer who doesn't complete 18 holes gets +3 for the round.

Fiso Series scoring
Points are awarded to the leading 30 finishers in each event as follows:
  • 40 for 1st place
    35 for 2nd
    30 for 3rd
    28 for 4th
    26 for 5th; then a point fewer for each place down to
    1 for 30th
After the Dubai finale, entrants' best five scores will be tallied to decide prize winners.

Transfers
You can request up to two team changes only between Rounds Two and Three.
Combined rating must remain 20 or fewer.
Post any transfer before first tee-time of Third Round.

Rating
Player value is based on bookmaker prices at Oddschecker.
Please see third post.

Incidentally, it could prove more difficult to select your favourites this season.
As a guide, total rating of five top-rated golfers in previous years was a rule-busting 31 to 33.
It's 34 for the 2016 Masters. Do say if there's any query. Good luck!

Game Summary
- select five golfers from list
- ensure total rating does not exceed 20
- post team in descending rating order by noon on Thurs 7 April using this format

n golfer-2
n golfer-3
n golfer-4
