It isn't that difficult...you have to pick a player you haven't used and you get whoever that player's partner is at no charge. I'm using Jason Day, Justin Rose and getting Fowler, Stenson with no charge as they are partners of my picks.

So you kind of see my point. Example. I used Berger already. Seems silly I can just list Pieters and pickup Berger no charge.

As always... not looking to be an a-hole. That being said, I will just put down some names this week and call it a day.

most of you guys have it all wrong.  You have to pick a pair.  You can pick a player you haven't used so far and you get him and his partner.  Not 4 separate golfers

The rules haven't really changed that much...you have to pick two golfers that you havent used yet this season.

You can pick the same team if you want, but if you want to select players that are on two seperate teams that's fine as well...

It's all the strategy.  If you feel Matsuyama/Tanihara are going to win, you can pick both and get a double winner bonus.

If you aren't as confident, you can pick Tanihara and Lovemark and try and get a good score that way.

Ok so going through the thread it looks as if some are just picking one team, while others are picking two golfers on two different teams. I will pick both ways to cma. But I would guess since CMJ is making the rules, it's two different golfers/two different teams.


Week 1 Woodland and Holmes
Week 2 Schniederjans and McGirt
Week 3 Walker and Beef Johnston
Week 4 Steele and Bradley
Week 5 O'Hair and Willett
Week 6 Haas and Sergio
Week 7 DeLaet and Na
Week 8 Kokrak and Horschel
Week 9 Reed and Kaymer
Week 10 Howell III and Berger
Week 11 Mickelson and Scott
Week 12 Bryan and Lahiri
Week 13 Kang and Palmer
Week 14 Jamie Donaldson and Jerry Kelly or if it's just one team I will take Donaldson's team

You can do it either way.

If you feel super confident in Matsuyama and Tanihara you can double up if you haven't selected either one of them yet this year...they win, you get double winner bonus.

If you want to increase your odds of a good score, you can pick two different golfers from two different teams  (i.e. Tanihara and Lovemark).

The only rules are that you can pick someone you have already used, you can pick their teammate.

Sorry for the confusion guys...I didn't realize ahead of time that they fukked up the format for this tournament...I would have addressed this beforehand.

Thanks for your understanding.  Hopefully the two that have duplicate picks can get another one in!

No...the general rules are the same, you still need to pick two golfers that you haven't used.  You can use Day and get Fowler with him, but you still need to select a 2nd golfer.

"The only rules are that you can pick someone you have already used, you can pick their teammate."


WTF is going on here... jesus. Just tell me, Am I ok with Palmer and Spieth? I want this effing conversation  over with... Literally no one can explain how this works. Some people picking one team, others picking two because no one knows the rules. Honestly this week should be thrown out for lack of management. Sorry to be a person but even your answers are contradictory of other statements. I feel like my wife took over commissioner of this league! lol

That was a spelling mistake on my part...the rules didn't change.

Pick two golfers that you haven't picked yet is how I should have explained it.
