And by 7:15am, we have a new leader. In the chasing pacl, Rickie Fowler is putting in a late run for Team DT.

fyi Sling is complete trash. I couldn't watch the All star game, my wife can't watch here fav show and I now can't watch the Open. Fox, ABC and NBC. These should be included in the most basic package. Complete trash. They have no customer service just AI Bots and when I asked how to watch the All Star game it said that baseball season hadn't started yet, check back in a couple months. Not joking.

Thursday was just a bad day for me and did me in.

YTTV is the best. I know it’s not the cheapest, but it’s worth it

I just cancelled Sling and signed up for Youtube. It has network channels right? I am watching the British open but I had to search for it. Isn't there a guide that you can scroll up and down and quickly find network TV. When I tried that I couldn't find ABC, NBC CBS or Fox.

Thanks again for putting these tourneys together; they are a hoot, but must be a shitload of work!

They are getting much easier now I have a decent source for the scoreboard - thanks Yahoo! I bet nobody ever said that.

I'm already planning our season finale.

Looking at forward to the Tour Championship in mid-August. The Top 30 from the Fedex Standings at that time will be the only players involved and there is no cut. They've abandoned that crazy -10 start for the #1 ranked player so it should be a great shootout.

For us, dead easy - I take our one year season rankings and just apply the players accordingly.

IF it was held today, it would look like this

Our rankings can change of course over the next few hours and the FedEx will change over the next month - but hope you get the drift.

We have nothing to do and will have a unique squad each. Its a doddle

Tense finish, it does come down to the final group.

-29 Bil522 with Gotterup (on 18th) and Fitzpatrick (on 17th)
-27 WallaWalla with just Scheffler out there on 17th.

Who blinks first?

18th - Gotterup tees off right down the centre (center) of the fairway
18th - Gotterup hits the green, outside birdie chance
17th - Fitzpatrick gives himself an even better birdie chance - BIl looks like he can breath more easily now.
17th - birdie for FItzpatrick - Bil moves to -30 and that is probably that..

YouTube TV is Awesome. It has everything for $82 a month. I will add RedZone during the NFL season.

Best part it has a normal guide that you scroll down and it starts with:

ABC
NBC
CBS
FOX

Just like the old days!

See you all at the Tour Championship next month, you dont have any thinking to do, go back about 3 posts here on page 10 for how it works.

My thanks to Yahoo! for finally giving us a scoreboard format that doesnt dick around every round with formatting. Its much easier to set this up.

Just go to "live" and it will start with the network channels
