Well the farce of this game strikes again. Before 10.30 on Sat morning and with someplayers still not finished round 2 and you cant change your round 3 selections. Consequently have someone guaranteeed to miss cut in line up.

Ironically we have fatcatz at the top of the leaderboard at present in a game which has such bad user play that the rich get richerand the poor get poorer!!

Mr Green........still liking the format? :wink:

Kyle Stanley has just gone into the lead, to put behind him the events at the 72nd hole last week so quickly is pretty amazing.

Then again De Gea made a world class save to keep Mata's injury time free kick out, so I guess anything is possible :P

Yeah, I've gotta admit that this kinda sucks and have been caught out once or twice already myself.

Never even considered Stanley to bounce back after last week's shenanigans the way he did. Fair play to those that did!

I dropped Stanley (-6) for the 4th round and put in Simpson (+1). So lost out on some points :x .

Think I can just about out do that McBear :

A) Simpson 72 (+1) benched Bradley 67 (-4) 5 shots lost;
B) Fowler 69 (-2) & Haas 71 (-) benched Wilson 64 (-7) & Snedeker 69 (-3) 8 shots lost;
C) Wagner 73 (+2) benches Laird 69 (-2) 4 shots lost.

So that would be 17 shots better scoring for my four benched players than the four I chose, pretty impressive loss of points :roll:

Thought it was a cracking week myself :P


Hot Wheels 2012 moves back to the top, but it's very close!

A belated welcome to regular mark fantasy who returns on a medical exemption :D

Nearly half way in the first segment already, time to get a decent run of scores going boys!

Another multi-course event this week.

The Monterey Peninsula (MP) course is meant to be the easier (par 70)
so may be worth having your Thursday starters playing there.

Also a Saturday cut (after 54 holes).

Laird misses a 2 foot 10 inch putt on the 9th (his 18th) to leave me player-less in group C for the final round :evil:

DJ or Mahan for final round in Group A? Bookies go with DJ as he had -9 on Thur and 2 previous wins. Wi will probably have to go low to win, should be great viewing tonight :0)

I agree with you MUF, this will make it 3 weeks of great PGA Sunday viewing!
I reckon 75% of Yahoo Group B teams will comprise Tiger and Dustin; both capable of dominating or disappointing in the Final round. If you have the bottle to drop Dustin to play Mahan, it may pay dividends..... but I'm shit at this game :lol:

Fatcatz back on top:


Well played to Smashing Course, who recovers excellently from a poor start to bag the weekly win :D

And despite blagging it for a few weeks, Pa (RIP) has finally dropped to 27th, so I'll retire Pa's Pinseekers gracefully next week.

Positions after 7 weeks:


Windy Behind takes the weekly win, and jumps an impressive 10 places to 12th :shock:

Amazingly close at the moment, with only 12 points covering the teams in 2nd to 7th!

Fatcatz has opened up a 35 point gap at the top, and has just 5 weeks to hold on to secure the winter segment prize :)

Shafty1 carries his form from the ProTour game into Yahoo with a move of 4 places up to second :D

But alas, it still wasn't enough to take the weekly honours, which went to Horton with a score of 190 8-)

Four weeks to go to the end of the Winter segment, can anyone catch FatCatz???

I managed to have Wilson(+3) and Rory(-1) in round 4, instead of Tiger(-8) and Lee(-7) :lol:

Wouldn't mind, but I did the old favourite of putting Westwood in, but not submitting the change :x

Latest table:



Three weeks to go to decide the Winter segment.

Seems to be between FatCatz and shafts shankers.

Grande Cajones week 1 effort still holding onto the highest weekly score :)

Aberdeen Angus wins the weekly with 191 points, thanks to picking Rose in Gp B :D

FatCatz has a healthy lead, with just 2 weeks of the Winter Segment left.

Not really sure what they are doing with their segments this year :?

In previous years the 3 segments have been a fairly logical 12, 12 and 13 weeks.

This year they seem to be 13, 10 and 14 weeks!

Guess we have to go with the Yahoo site, though I wouldn't be too surprised if it suddenly changed again!

So, in summary,we'll go with the website, which at the moment says there are 3 weeks left in the Winter segment.

Thanks for spotting that Trickster :)

They're starting the Spring section with the Masters & the Summer section with the US Open. I'm guessing this explains the lack of uniformity in the number of weeks in each section as they want to maximise the numbers joining mid season.

Pretty even week, very low scoring.

Two weeks left for the chasing pack to hunt down FatCatz.

Make that 2 wins in 12 weeks:


Well played RK :D

But alas only 2 points more than FatCatz this week, who barring a no-show should comfortably take the Winter segment this week 8-)

No surprises there then, FatCatz takes the winter segment:


Sorry for the delayed update, been a tad busy setting up loads of F Golf teams :lol:

Get in touch Fatcatz, and I'll send you your £15, well played :D

FatCatz extends his lead at the top though, carrying on his good form from the winter segment.

One of those good or bad weeks:

Well played Exeter, with an excellent top score of 190 points 8-)
