:) It sounds easy, then you get caught out travelling for work on a Wednesday, or with something else that messes with the routine....

Oh well then, you need to give up work and become a fulltime fantasy influencer;) might be able to set your team on Tues if it's cleared by then.
Next tournament isn't until the 29th now because of the President's Cup is this week.

Wow, 113 points in that final round, talk about coming from nowhere! Having players who shoot -8 and -7 help. Really didn't expect that after struggling through the first three rounds.

Nice work Ironhawk, did you see how the tournament ended? Heartbreaking for Willett and very lucky for Homa.

Have the scores been "adjusted" since the end of the tournament? I just checked the app because I had a sudden "hang on is there Pres Cup fantasy requirements" panic, and the rankings have me 1st in SCS but I was second at the end of the tournament last week? (But I seemed to have dropped about 200 places in the overall)

Hey Frosty, there is the end of round bonus points....

End of Round Bonus:
  • Low Round of the Day (including ties): 10 points
  • 2nd Low Round of the Day (including ties): 5 points
  • Bogey Free Round: 3 points

End of Tournament Bonus:
At the end of the Tournament, users will receive 1/10 the FedExCup points each of their starting golfers in round 4 earn for the Tournament.
That end of tournament bonus thing doesn't happen immediately after the 4th round ends so maybe that's why?

Also, you don't have to worry about doing any picks for the President's Cup, just the Sanderson Farms Championship which is on Sept 30th to Oct 3rd...can't actually make those picks yet.

I did see that FedEx Cup points got added on later - it dropped my score a fair bit, I am guessing mainly as the only team in the league who didn't pick the tournament winner. I'll definitely have to consider that in future tournaments, completely overlooked that scored points.

Thanks for the detailed response. I probably should have read the whole set of rules myself!!

Anyway, have made my picks for this week Fingers crossed.

Half way through Rd 1, all my players are underperforming, except one on the bench. Seems to be a common theme.

Edit: My two best scorers were both on the bench. Might be lucky to have 4 make the cut.

Know how you feel, I've got an equal best score sitting on the pine too, another common theme, as soon as you pull a guy off the field for the bench guy in the next round, then the better score will still be on the bench LOL, that's happened to me countless times.

Looks like I'll only have 3 going into the second half, thought I did my research too...oh well, plenty of time to make up the points :)

3 on the weekend for me. Didn't bring Detry in for Rd 2, so missed those points, but locked in now, expect a weekend explosion.....

Managed to get 4 through which should be a little advantage over those who only have 3, my 4th best golfer scraped into the cut with -2. None within 5 shots of the lead, but there's still potential, it just takes one really good round for anyone to be in contention.
