MISCELLANEOUS....
-- All contestants should make an effort to share this contest with the community
-- The LU will be posted when the contest locks Thursday AM
-- In the event that no one correctly picks the winner, the prize will go to the highest placing golfer with the tiebreaker remaining total score.
SPONSORS
-- There are no sponsors. I will be providing the prize from my account. All I ask is you make an effort in good faith to share this with the community and I won't be too deep in the red (even if the team chokes).
-- If you would like to help minimize the risk or play for the full cash amount yourself, please signup using this affiliate link so we both benefit ($10 extra for both of us) when you deposit and play with $20. This is not necessary or required though
It would be great to get a huge score and give out a large prize, but I'm looking forward to interacting with and meeting the community even more. I definitely encourage open discussion during the tournament if you're watching. If it's a success, we'll up the ante for the next golf major, The British Open.
Also, it is Father's Day this Sunday. If you are looking for a gift < $20 and your dad is a golfer, this is what I bought mine...
TEAM UPDATE:
Rickie Fowler
Harris English
Justin Thomas

Shane Lowry

If there is any interest from people learning how to get into DFS Golf, we can get a group together and talk about some strategies as well. It's much more interesting IMO then traditional fantasy golf.
