    ...and now I see the game was locked at 18.35 tonight because of the highly relevant Fiji International! So I'm stuck with Rose.
    I'd say a few people were caught with the early lockdown time

    Seems to be an issue with this game showing players as not playing when they are. Chinese golfer Ashun Wu (in the game as W.Ashun) is currently second in Fiji and is listed on my team as DNP. Should have 350 points currently. Not the first time this has happened.

    Haven't heard anything about it yet but from playing it the last 2/3 years it always starts as the Masters being the first event.

    Noticed that a few players are missing this year. No Angel Cabrera, or Hunter Mahon. Probably others that I've missed.

    First time trying this, do people usually pick players that play a lot of tournaments? We'll say you could pick Rory, Scott and Tiger but then they wouldn't play most weeks. I suppose you need to be clever with your transfers in/out

    I picked conners this week not cause I thought he would do well but after a win will play a lot on the pga tour

    I picked Olsesn as he would most likely play some of the eruopean events

    The pricing from what I see is very imbalanced in terms of constructing teams, in terms of money to spend and the price you have for golfers.

    So if you can get a cheap golfer who will play a lot either side of the pond its a good start to transfers you need to make down the line

    That all being said you need winners and you need winners in majors, but come the top prizes a few points here and there can and will make the differnece

    Does anybody know how the points will count for the Zurich Open this week?

    From what I can see, it is a team event, so wondering if the points will be by player, by team, or some other function.

    Open to correction here but IIRC from last year, each player scores individually, so if you picked both players on the same team and they won the event you would get 500 for both players, 1,000 in total.

    Anyone getting dnp's on your players this week? Can't explain it, they are all active.

    Cantlay for example, can't understand.

    Yea there was a notification from the organisers saying only one player from each teams points will show, the other player will be DNP but all points will be awarded properly on Monday morning.

    Some people nailed it this week by getting 4 sets of winner points, a captain winner (1), Rahm (1) and Palmer (1). Campillo (1). Some even had second places on top. I thought the team event would be a harder call.

    Well done those people. Made it like a major week.

    No luck again with my captain selection but was happy to see a first and two seconds. Might be the best week I get of the whole season. Shows value of the right captain selection though.


  • Posts: 0 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Ya it was very clever to say the least Obviously a little bit of a gamble but the payout was massive very well thought out.

    I forgot to Save my captain pick (xander) for the masters which has hurt a bit, so I'll just have to win a monthly prize instead :D
