Scoreboard can go a bit haywire when the cut is made - so tidied it up and here we are after Round 2.

Only 1 idiot missed the cut and is out for the weekend, so I can fly home early and enjoy some time with the family. :oops:

And now I get the 9th pick in the US Open draft. All that will be left for me is Bernard Langer and Lanny Wadkins. I should have picked Shooter McGavin instead.

Great day for baller and D-T is back in contention. This baller is quite good at this golf malarkey.

Enjoy the weekend lads - I'm still following closely.

Thanks for being the sacrificial Lamb, Mike!!! I thought I was toast after round 1 but my boy rallied for me. Good stuff.

Oh, wah, wah :P . You are +6. Yeah, you suck!
I'm +11. +11. My golfers did this to me on purpose. Bitches... :shock:
Rocky Colavito is a Hall of Famer in my book!

Moving day for SH - starts the day in 7th and 10 shots of the lead. Xpert was also 7 shots off the pace.

Now both are in contention. Good luck tomorrow dear Protagonists.

Im a little confused about Sibelius's entry and current score

I don't see a Adam Hadwin and these are the others I see:


Christiaan Bezuidenhout $20 (+4)
Nicolai Højgaard $20 (E)
Taylor Pendrith $20 (+1)
Adam Hadwin $10
Tom McKibbin $20 (+7)
Andrew Putnam $10 (E)

Can you tell me what I'm missing on his entry? I'm sure it's my error, but thought I would ask.

The dangers of using LOOKUP vs VLOOKUP formula. Its uses approximation of matching cases - and it seems it matched it to "Aaron Rai". Adam never got to the start line so I've changed every formula to VLOOKUP to prevent any other mis-scoring. I've used VLOOKUP before but forgot how to use it for this tournament.

It also picked up I'd spelt Christiaan Bezuidenhout wrongly - but that wasn't affecting the scoreboard.

Poor SH - his score was boosted artifcially yesterday by a ghost player who wasn't even in the PGA.

FIXED - don't think there are any other issues other than the bollocking I'm going to get from SH. :oops:

One clue that something was amiss is that I spent $100 but it said $95 on the table until recently. Now it says $75.

Hoge isn't listed as an ALT in your OP. Sigh
According to the font of all knowledge (Wikipedia) :lol:

"Tom Hoge replaced Jake Knapp." as second alternate. Sometimes this ends up being the kind of thing that creates the story of the winner.

Tom Hoge is currently 500/1 (+50000) to win. I will have £1 each-way.

Go Hoge.....
So I put a few quid on Tom Hoge - if he finishes top 10 I win 606 GBP / 800 USD

Today he's had 6 birdies, 1 bogey and 2 x Doubles

He's -1 and T25 with 6 to play.

Gambling.....when the fun stops, STOP !
