Covers Golf Contest TOUR CHAMPIONSHIP

Well friends...we started 8 months ago...then we re-started since some goon couldn't figure out when to start.  And now we're here...the finale.  We have NEVER had as close a finale as this...literally all 8 of the remaining players have a chance.  Double points for one player...and I'm going to add in 3rd round bonus player like the majors...pick one guy who you think will be the lowest score on Saturday.  He will be worth a -5.  Could be HUGE!!

Yes...the 3rd round bonus pick can be absolutely anyone...basically just trying to get another way to get points since everyone is so close!

Tomorrow night I will post a "sneak preview" of the picks...if you want to change you can, if not you can let it ride!

So far as of Tuesday night...we have 5 of the 8 participants picks in...

EVERYONE has used a major champion as their double points pick.

THREE people have the same double points pick

NOBODY has the same single points pick

TWO of the five have selected a major winner from this year

Heard a great question on social media today...would you guarantee a Tiger Woods win this week if it meant the US lost in the Ryder Cup next week?

It all depends on how much you are a fan of Tiger...I want both obviously!!

Where they at?

Was not expecting so many Rory picks.  Pretty hard for my team to pick up enough ground.  Thanks for a great "Free" contest CMJohnson.  It is always fun, no matter what my rank.

Gotta hope Xander does well and Rory gets the bonus!
