The Masters Competition

As the Masters finishes on Easter Sunday and my membership level doesn't allow me to play on Easter Monday, I can have a lie in. So I can run the usual major competition thingy.

The rules are simple. Pick 6 golfers playing in the Masters. You score however many strokes they take. The winner of the competition is the person who chooses the three players out of their six that have the lowest total score. Tie breaks will go to 4th, 5th or 6th player. If your player misses the cut, they are out of the running. Remember qualifying LIV golfers are playing. As of today, I don't think they've posted a list of entrants yet, as the winner of the Valero Texas Open (if not already qualified) gets in. So the list isn't finalised. But you can find entrants on betting sites and elsewhere.

Any chance a mod can make this a global sticky?

Fire away with your entries........ good luck!

Thanks INW, I'll go for:

Cam Smith
Louis Oosthuizen
Patrick Reed
Dustin Johnson
Brooks Koepka
Charl Schwartzel

Angel Cabrera
Mark Immelman
Mike Weir
Tiger Woods
Danny Willett
Shane Lowry

It's ironic that he's no angel.

Cabrera has been in the news saying he wants to continue his golf career, is he definitely not playing? I'm happy to submit my picks with him included in case he shows up

Whether he is out of prison or not I doubt he will be allowed back at the Masters. Wouldn't be a good look to have the ANWA one week and wife beater teeing it up the next.

How come this process was so tough for you?

Just pick six players from the field.

Bummer. Zalatoris withdrawn. Na as well.
