My Master's Picks


So there's this fantasy Masters tournament game that my dad has played for a dozen years or so...

You are given a set list of players with attached point values (Tiger = 45, Rory McIlroy - 15, etc). You must pick five players and their combined value cannot exceed 100 points.
Scoring is based on cumulative score relative to par, the winner gets a bonus of -3 to their score and if a player you picked misses the cut (you're pretty much screwed), his score will be doubled AND you need to add +5.

Here is the list of golfers to choose from and their respected point value:

Player Pts. Player Pts. Player Pts.

Tiger Woods 45 Paul Casey 20 D.J. Trahan 10

Geoff Ogilvy 30 Retief Goosen 20 Hunter Mahan 10

Padraig Harrington 30 Rory Sabbatini 20 Ian Poulter 10

Phil Mickelson 30 Sean O'Hair 20 Martin Kaymer 10

Vijay Singh 30 Stewart Cink 20 Miguel A. Jimenez 10

Anthony Kim 25 Zach Johnson 20 Richard Sterne 10

Jim Furyk 25 Aaron Baddeley 15 Robert Allenby 10

Kenny Perry 25 Andres Romero 15 Stephen Ames 10

Luke Donald 25 Angel Cabrera 15 Boo Weekley 5

Robert Karlsson 25 Justin Leonard 15 Brandt Snedeker 5

Sergio Garcia 25 Justin Rose 15 Bubba Watson 5

Steve Stricker 25 K.J. Choi 15 Carl Pettersson 5

Adam Scott 20 Nick Watney 15 Chad Campbell 5

Camilo Villegas 20 Pat Perez 15 Jeev Milkha Singh 5

Ernie Els 20 Rory Mcllroy 15 Jose Maria Olazabal 5

Henrik Stenson 20 Stuart Appleby 15 Lee Westwood 5

Mike Weir 20 Trevor Immelman 15 Rocco Mediate 5

Other (write-in) 5
