Covers Golf Contest Playoffs *NORTHERN TRUST*

- The starting standings are based on your regular season performance.  1st place PuttForeDough started at a +1 score and received a bonus "stroke" for every winning selection this season (2) to start off the playoffs at a -1

- Each subsequent position in the playoffs was 2 "strokes" worse than the position ahead of them, for instance 2nd place BigChussy started at +3, 3rd place A_Ford29 started at +5, and 4th place AJLightning started at +7...with each of them receiving the bonus "strokes" from there.

- You will PM me your picks prior to the FIRST PLAYER teeing off on Thursday.  There are no exceptions.  I will post each selection at some point on Thursday.  I'm 99.9% sure I'm friends with all of you on here, but if not, just make sure to send me a request by then and I'll accept.  

- You MUST designate ONE of your two selected golfers to be a double points selection.  

- You can use ANYONE in the field for the playoffs.  It doesn't matter who you have used in the regular season, all golfers are back in the mix

- The top 8 after the Northern Trust will move on to next week...the top 4 will move on after that.  The final two weeks of the playoffs (BMW Championships and Tour Championship) will include all 4 finalists for both weeks.  The scores will reset prior to the BMW Championship so that just in case someone runs away with the first two weeks, they still have to put in the effort to finish it up.

-  I have sent my picks to clepto, AJLightning, and alangrrbs...I always make my selections early on so that I cannot just look at who is being used and guide my plays based on that.

Good luck!!!

2.  Regular season wins

3.  Regular season score

I just figured this was not the time to get creative. Hey... at least I am the lone wolf on Reed.

Well it kind of is because everyone pretty much picks the same f**king players. 

Good luck with Reed. I'm hoping Day is there somewhere on Sunday for me!

wishful thinking... Matsuyama -3 through 11

+1 total.  Cut staying steady at +2
