    No one wanted to take a flyer on old man Stricker this week? Figured we'd have at least one person with the lotto ticket :grin:

    It's usually a crapshoot with the pro/am angle, but yeesh. Networks are going to be praying for Rickie/Jordan/Phil to make the weekend

    Yes, there is a score sheet but no you haven't missed it. It's been a busy month for me so I haven't had a chance to finalize all the updates but almost done with those and I'm aiming to have it posted by this weekend. More to come soon!

    Ooof, that's brutal.

    Also, I think I've found some sort of inverse correlation between my performance in this league and the times I don't enter my lineups into money contests :grimacing:

    @WhoDatMatt @Bum4ever might be a little late for this, but looks like we still need your entries for the contest this week!

    For posterities sake, I did receive a team from Matt shortly after the lineup lock, so I'm going to allow it this one time. I reached out to Josh as well but didn't hear back. We've had a good streak to start the season so I haven't been as vigilant about checking, but I'll be better about hounding folks ahead of Thursday going forward.

    Also, in what is a long, long, loooong overdue update, the scoring sheet is officially live HERE. We've got a tight leaderboard to start things off, with just over 200 points separating first and last place.

    I also need to note that this does NOT include the bonus point structure I had hoped to use. After pulling the stats and crunching the numbers, there just was not a clean way to do it. Lineups with 5/6 or 6/6 were either over-rewarded or punished for that fact when trying to do averages, so I'm going to abandon the idea for now and hopefully revisit it again down the road. We will still retain our 1.5x points multiplier for all four Majors. And with 3 of the 4 majors in the second half of our year, there's still plenty of points to be had.

    And in case I didn't stipulate it already, since we have 10 players this year, we'll use a 4/2/1 prize box structure for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places in the first half, second half, and full season standings. We have four events left for the Front 9, and the first boxes will be up for grabs after The Masters!

    Thanks for the patience and look for more active updates going forward the rest of the season. Cheers!
