GRAND SLAM CONTEST - Cumulative Standings - NONNY WINS!

[Sleepy]

Standings through 3 of the 4 Majors.

Scoring Methodology
As in golf, the lower the score, the better.

Base score: For each event, it is the place you finished in. For teams that missed the cut, all of them tied for last place amongst entrants. For people that did not submit a team for that event, their base score is tied for "last place".
For example, for the Masters, 43 teams made the cut their score was their place. The 13 teams that missed the cut all got a score of 44. The people that have entered a team in at least one event but did not submit for the Masters all received a score of 57 (since there were 56 entrants).

Cut Adjusment: Negative one point for each of the 6 golfers that made the cut.

So, the best theoretical score for each event is -5 (1 point for placing first, and -6 if all six golfers made the cut).

How many played the British Open?...

I didn't make the deadline (didn't realize it was soooo early) but came in 2 for the US Open...

Surprised my score is an 85

And I'm assuming this means the overall contest is down to the top 3-5 players?

There were 52 entries into the British. Combine that 53rd, with your 41st place finish in the Masters and 2nd in US Open, less 11 golfers that made the cut = 85.

This scoring system rewards participation -- I am open to any other scoring methodology recommendations.

BUMP.

 

[SpiderMatt]

Lots of bad guys to defeat here. Piece of cake.

WEBS. HANDS. PERIOD.

 

[AnonymousDeac]

Mods, how about hooking up the winner here with a boss custom title?

I guess a top-25 performance isn't the worst thing in the world.

Sleepy - thanks for organizing each of the events. Lots of fun even if I failed to make the cut at the PGA. I'll take the momentum from a top 5 showing into next season.
