Kwinigolfer was the only to choose Bubba Watson and boy did it show in the scores.  He may not have had the most picks score points, that was Owen10ozzy who had five picks score, but he outscored his closest challenger by 25 points in the final reckoning.  Kwini was one of three Fantasy Leaguers to have four picks score points, the other two were LadyPutt and SirBenson who finished fourth and third respectively.  A whole host of Fantasy Leaguers had three picks score points; all of 1GrumpyGolfer's remaining picks scored points.  AlciG, Beninho, BlueCoverman, BobtheJob, Davie, EmmDee57, Hibbz, Pedro, Sand, and Super_Realist were in that group.  The remaining Fantasy Leaguers, Eyetoldyouso GolferMartin, I'm Never Wrong, McLaren, Raycastleunited, SetupDetermines, and TheCleaver, all had two picks score points.

Adam Hadwin shot 66 for the low round of the day and that scored points for Owen10ozzy and TheCleaver.

The Northern Trust Open at Riviera Country Club is a classic; star studded members and winners and some iconic holes to boot.  Five of the top ten are here including world number one Jordan Spieth.  Rory McIlroy is taking in his first Northern Trust Open and Fred Couples is extending his record run of appearances.  

James Hahn is the defending champion having seen off Paul Casey and then Dustin Johnson in a playoff.  The five most recent winners are also playing along with Charles Howell III, Adam Scott, Robert Allenby, Ernie Els, and Fred Couples.  Phil Mickelson was the most recent to defend the title in 2009 but he's not playing.

There are three Categories where you will need pick three players, plus reserve, from each one.  There are bonus points available if you get all of your picks through in any category.  Get all 9 picks through and you get an even bigger bonus.  It's all way down at the bottom in the scoring section if you are interested.

This is a full field with cut event, cut points will be available; see above.

RULES

Picking players: Unless stated, pick a total of 9 players as follows:

Pick 3 players from each category, plus a reserve per category.

Event winner: The person with the most total points at the completion of each event will be declared the winner. In case of a tie, those involved will match-off each picks' final position score in descending order. i.e. Player A's best finish vs. Player B's best finish, Player A's 2nd best finish vs. Player B's 2nd best finish, etc... until one's pick finishes better than the other(s).

If there is a tie after all 9 picks have been matched against each other, those involved will be declared co-winners.

Player Withdrawals: If you pick a player who withdraws during a tournament, that player will be eligible for points for all completed rounds and making the cut if they withdraw after the cut. It must be apparent that the player completed their round for them to be eligible for either the low round, worse round, top 5, or top 10 low round scores.  If a player withdraws before starting the tournament then your reserve will be put in that player's place. It is up to you to check that your players are in the starting field.

Holidays / Absences: If you will be absent for an upcoming event (e.g holidays) you may post the numbers on the most recent fantasy league event and the respective tournament(s) that apply or PM them to me.  Example: Pick 3 players and 1 reserve from each category and the relative event number or name: Players 4, 5, and 8, reserve 9 from Category A, players 1, 3, and 7, reserve 5 from Category B, players 1, 2 and 17, reserve 12 from Category C, Event #12.

Failure to submit picks: If you do not submit picks you will be awarded zero points.

Deadlines: Picks must ideally be submitted before the first drive is struck on the first day of the tournament.  However, late picks submitted after the tournament has begun must be for players who have yet to start (or are not showing a score on europeantour.com, PGATour.com, etc.), and these will not be valid unless they are seconded by any other league member.

All fantasy league disputes and discrepancies will be considered by the League Judge: LadyPutt. All decisions made by the League Judge are final.
