Had Finau as well, but had 2 on the bench. Pushed Wise to the bench as well, so those with him will likely benefit!

Confirmed. Those with Wise benefited.

Happy with my last round score all the same ...

Aaargh had Wise on the bench didn't I, at least I had Scheffler on the field. Close tournament again, at least I was able to gain a small amount of ground on you guys again

I was the only one who had him scoring in the end. Only because I had no choice, with just the 4 golfers making the cut.

116 for the final round was very nice, just lost way too many points across the first three rounds for it to get me the win. Maybe the Cup points will catch me up slightly for the tournament, but I don't think so.

Still leading our comp by 150 odd points overall, but I can easily lose that with one bad tournament - as long as I keep on getting at least 4 golfers making the cut each tournament, I should be OK.

Burns had a shocker. @Vicwood the only one without him, but copped Grillo who withdrew. Not a good start from any of us.

I had Grillo too before it started but got an alert email about it, bad luck for Vicwood, must've been busy.
Think it's gonna be a struggle for most of us this week to field 4 after round 2, tough course and there's weather on the way also.

Pretty average week for the lot of us. I think I need to up my PGA tour stats game rather than relying on the fantasy previews if I want to improve. (Definitely not going to happen!)

Finau was on my shortlist to include, but was one who just missed my final 6. Seems an obvious choice in retrospect. At least it was a low scoring tournament overall, so didn't lose as much ground as I could have (not looking forward to seeing Cup points though).

Well done you and Frosty this week, rotten week for me, also decided to omit Finau from my squad in favour of Henley, dem's the breaks I guess. Need to get my picks a bit more solid if I'm to have any hope of catching you guys

Also on my shortlist, but burnt me with the MC last week...

No Finau this week unfortunately, would've been an easy pick.

Vicwood · 19 Nov 2022

Another week another non starter.

Another week another missed cut.......

Ironhawk · 19 Nov 2022

Had a shocker so far, my best two golfers starting on the bench and only 3 making the cut. First time I haven't had at least 4 on Saturday. Could have been much better if I chose Putnam over NeSmith, which was a 50/50 I was deciding on for my last spot - of course I picked the one who got cut over the joint leader.

Just letting you all catch up a bit I guess..... (not intentionally)

Vicwood said:

Weird how Finau was initially able to be picked, I had him too and then got an email alert saying he wasn't entered, if he wasn't entering why was he even on the list in the first place?

Ironhawk said:

Yes about time you faltered a bit! haha, know how you feel about the best player(s) on the bench round 1, I had Ben Griffin on the bench and left 18 points begging with his 34, of course I bring him on for the second round and he does bugger all lol

frosty1 · 19 Nov 2022

Only 3 on the weekend for me as well. Tough week

He was in the field but withdrew a couple of days before tee off.

Ironhawk · 24 Nov 2022

Did anyone else get a roster reminder email today? Apparently the deadline for the next tournament is coming up quickly - but the next tournament starts in January.

Guessing the reminders are set to send automatically every Thursday to anyone who hasn't tipped yet - hopefully they turn that function off until January, as I don't really want that email another 5 times.

Hey mate, yeah the Tournament of Champions used to be the first tournament of the season, so this is their annual break now. I've gotta figure out how to keep playing with the Fantasy page being retired, I'm not very tech savvy and have a really old phone lol, not sure if I can or want to download the app to my phone and I'd rather play it on my laptop anyway. I have a smart TV, could I download the app to that?..appreciate any help, cheers

The PGA Tour app is a graphics heavy app, so if you have an old phone, I don't like your chances of it loading. It might.

I thought it was the PGA Fantasy app being retired, not the website, but I could be wrong. I never had this app so not sure.
