    Hello BA's...did this for the US Open and it was a success so doing it again for the British.

    Looking for 8-10 people. Ante for this will be two 22oz with a 90 or better rating on this site (not looking to break the bank or cellar here, just some highly rated beer that others might enjoy)

    You will pick 6 golfers from the groupings below to form your team. At the end of the tournament, your 4 lowest golfers scores will be added together....low team score wins. If you have 3 or more players miss the cut, you're out. (I will email out tie-breakers to the participants)

    Examples
    If your six golfers scores are -5, -3, E, +1, +4, and a MC, your ending total would be -7 as the +4 and the MC are thrown out.
    If your six scores are -5, -3, -2, MC, MC, MC, then you won't have four in play so you're out.

    First & second places will win if we have 8 or 9 people....third place will also win if we get 10. (if 8 people...1st gets 8 bottles...2nd gets 4. If 9 people, 1st gets 10 and 2nd gets 4...and if 10, 1st gets 8, 2nd gets 4 and third gets 2)

    First 9 people to DM me with their name and email address will get in. You'll need to have prior positive trading history to participate. The groupings for golfers are below just so you can see the breakdown and how you'll have to pick, but your picks won't be due until Wednesday midnight ET.
