THE Open Championship, Don't Call It the British Open.

FORMAT: Listed below are most of the golfers participating in the The Open Championship. You need to pick 6 of them with a total value of 400 or more. Pick carefully - your team will end up "missing the cut" if more than two of your golfers miss the cut in the event! To make your selections, send me a PM with the golfers' names and point values.

SCORING: Your score will be the aggregate of your best four golfers. Since you have to have at least four scores counting, if more than two of your golfers miss the cut, so does your team. There are also "bonus points" at the end of the tournament. If you've got the champion golfer on your team, it's -5. The runner-up gets you -3, and having the third-place golfer gets you -1 off your score.

DEADLINE: All entries must be sent to me by 1:30 AM Thursday, July 18th.

SCORING UPDATES: Don't expect them. I will be busy golfing in Monterey. Final results will be posted Monday afternoon.

In at 405. Thanks again for running Sleepy. I don't think I have ever had a year where I did them all. Missed the PGA this year. Hopefully, I bring this one home. Enjoy, Monterrey!
 
Also in at 405. Seems like there are more enticing 150 choices than usual. Enjoy Monterrey and report back on where you played.

Yeah, I though so too. McDowell, Kisner, Bradley are all guys that could be in the mix come Sunday.

I'm also not really into the favorites either. Tiger has barely played, Koepka doesn't believe in tuning up on links courses, DJ hasn't contended in the Open in recent years, Rahm cleans up in the Irish but has yet to break into the top-40 at the Open, and Rory has all the pressure in the world on him. Though it is going to rain, and all Rory's major wins have come on wet courses. It has a wide open feeling. We also haven't had an English winner since 1992 when Faldo won - that's almost 30 years.

Westwood!
 
Westwood!

I chuckled. I was thinking more of Rose, Fairway Jesus, Casey, Fitzpatrick, Pepperell, Hatton or Wallace. And please don't let Poulter win the damn jug.

Nice line-up Sleepy. A friend of mine played Spyglass and Spanish Bay out there last year and loved it. I've always heard that Spyglass is tougher than Pebble but it's not enough of a stadium course to hold a major.
 
I havent seen any results, but if you don't want to include mine thats cool as well. Just like picking some guys to cheer for. With no research on hand I go with....

5 - Koepka
10 - DJ
20 - Rose
75 - Webb
150 - Hoffman
150 - Wallace

Total: 410
 
Brooks Koepka -5
Matthew Fitzpatrick -2
Patrick Reed -4
Webb Simpson -3
Eddie Pepperell E
Charley Hoffman +1

Now looking at first round scores and it really looks like I cheated....haha. Disregard my team if it pisses anyone off. Promise I didn't look at the scoreboard.
 
Rory - 5
Bryson - 30
Sergio - 40
Webb - 75
Snedeker - 100
Reavie - 150

My crew is looking alright.
