earl the beaver · Post by **earl the beaver** » Mon Sep 14, 2020 10:55 am

2020's 2nd Major Arrives with the US Open held at Winged Foot

The course last hosted a major in 2006 when Geoff Ogilvy won by 1 shot from Monty, Mickleson and Furyk.

In some key news Brooks Koepka has withdrawn through injury

Everyone knows the drill:

Pick one from each of the following:
-USA
-GB&I
-Europe
-Africa
-Aus/NZ
-RoW
-Wildcard - Player from outside the top 40 in owgr as of today (http://www.owgr.com/ranking) who has not won this calendar year

-20 points for the winner
-10 points for r-up down to -2 points for 10th (including ties)
-10 for getting all your players through the Cut
-10 for any Holes in one

Can everyone please post in the format below

USA - Surname, Forename
GB&I - Surname, Forename
Europe - Surname, Forename
Africa - Surname, Forename
Aus/NZ - Surname, Forename
RoW - Surname, Forename
Wildcard - Surname, Forename

It's really not difficult to do that format but there are chronic repeat offenders incapable of following instructions, it just makes my life easier and I'm doing this out of my own time.

Current Holders:

Masters - Tiddle
USPGA - tazman77
US Open - Woddy
Open Championship - Frodder

My team mate Zappa has walked off the pitch so I reserve the right to pick somebody else up to and including the end of round 1

You're the Boris Johnson of this comp, see which way the crowd's heading and then dart to the front and shout "follow me"

Fine by me.

He was actually 5 minutes late. Lot of effort but came up short. Dog eat dog out there and some of us have bigger paws.

EverReady · Post by **EverReady** » Thu Sep 17, 2020 12:42 pm

I should note I would have been fine with it but it is Tiddles I have to think of

Insane_Homer · Post by **Insane_Homer** » Thu Sep 17, 2020 12:47 pm

pagtour.com scoreboard is bollixed, says J.C. Ritchie (RSA) is at +1 after bodging his second hole,
