Here's mine:

9 - Woods
6 - Charles Howell III
6 - Paul Casey
5 - Ames
4 - Weir
3 - JJ Henry
3 - Couples

I have 4 prizes committed. One for best 4-day score and one for worst 4-day score. I will decide on the other two and post before the first round.

EDIT: Changed to Casey from Appleby


Very nice you MORAN!!

Appleby shoots a 75 and Casey is going to be lucky to break 80.

Get back to your spreadsheet.

Rolling rofl!

Ah, very cool, you're way ahead of me. Grin

I thought I'd whip something together just to make it easier to see how I stand during the day. (plus I'm bored at work).

not easy to do since you can't copy/paste off the masters leaderboard?


Yeah, I have to enter the scores manually.  Sad

I've got all the teams set up and then a separate list of players. All I have to do is enter the score once and it updates all the teams and calculates the total scores.   Headbang

Gawd I sound like a complete spreadsheet nerd. 



Hehe, I'm right there with you with the separate list.  Grin  It actually doesn't take that long to update the main list of players, especially when masters.org lets you sort the scores by name.

The trickiest part for me was figuring out scoring for round 4 with the best 5 scores and double the best single score.  My excel skillz are rusty, and it took me a while to figure out.

3. Nick O'Hern      6
4. Arron Baddley   6

LARGE() rocks! hehehehehe

I first started using SMALL() when I set up the spreadsheet for my handicap.

Seamus and Walfredo are looking good so far (best 6 of 7 for Round 1)

Seamus   
9 Tiger (1)   1
6 C. Howell III (15)   3
6 JM Olazabal (28)    3
5 Justin Rose (34)    -3
4 Thomas Bjorn (54)  0
3 Scott Verplank (67)  1
3 Fred Couples (104)  4
Total   5

I think I'm actually +8, if I've deciphered your scoring system correctly, Thomas Bjorn shot a 77 +5 today which brings my Fred Couples score in to play, so I think my best 6 add up to +8, right?

Yeah, sorry about that.  I posted that when only half the rounds had been completed.

With no particular reasoning:

9-Tiger
6-Garcia
6-Appleby
5-Campbell
4-Calcavecchia
3-Funk
3-Villegas

Hey tdcoly, I'm trying to put together a spreadsheet to make the scoring for this easier.  Which Campbell did you mean for your team?

5 - Campbell, Chad ( 32 )
5 - Campbell, Michael ( 38 )

Brain fart on my part.  Chad.

Get back to your spreadsheet.

My apologies for doubting you after the first round Mr. Casey.

Please continue to shoot 68's over the weekend if you wish.

Hehe.  My original plan was to try for all Spanish-speaking players just to make it easier for me to remember who was on my team.  But I only went with Olazabal, Cabrera, and Jimenez because I had doubts about Sergio and Villegas.  Turned out to be a great move!   Grin

Sergio needs to seriously re-group.

Villegas was just overwhelmed I think.

Good call on both!  Wink
