Rules and format below pilfered from the 2016 competition with minor edits:

Entry Form:

Prices spreadsheet:

A "for fun" competition to fill the void left by the awesome event run by MereNovice in previous years.


The rules are as follows:

1. This is for fun only, unless someone would like to step up and handle payment logistics. Any entries will be recorded and scored regardless for bragging rights.


2. Each entrant will pick one selection in each of the categories below. The selection must either be for a £2 win or a £1 each-way bet. Winnings will be settled on the basis of the prices in the spreadsheet above. These prices were taken from SkyBet via Oddschecker on Wednesday afternoon.

If your selection withdraws before the competition starts, he will be replaced with a "win only" bet on the favourite for that category.

The categories are:

Top US player
Top Great Britain and Ireland player
Top Continental Europe player
Top Australian player
Top Asian player
Top South African player
Top Debutant
Top Senior player
Top Amateur player

3. The place component of an each-way bet will be decided using a fraction of the full odds for a win (as specified in the odds sheet)

4. I will be using http://www.masters.com/ for the purpose of deciding the result of each market.
Where golfers achieve an equal score (with the exception of a player who wins the event in a play-off), I will apply dead heat rules.
A player does not have to make the cut to score points. The relative placings of any players who fail to make the cut will be based on their score after two rounds. Any player who makes the cut will place higher than one who does not.

5. Entries must be received via the form above by 10am on Thursday 6th April. I will then make everyone's selections available via a separate sheet and provide the link.

6. The winner will be the person who makes most profit (or least loss) over the course of the tournament. Where two (or more) people achieve the same score, there will be a fight to the death to declare the true winner. Or just call it a draw.

7. One entry each please, it's just for fun.

8. My decision is final in all matters (until proven otherwise).

Winning entry SUBMITTED.

Must say, very impressed with that Entry Form, makes it so much easier.

Looks liked a very thin field due to late notice, but it's appreciated that you made the effort, thank you.

I must have the same picks as Tikay.

Entry submitted and also very impressed with the entry form.

Thanks again for setting this up.

Is this not for money?  :'(

Excellent entry form

In, that was very easy  :)up

no volunteers so far to take the money in,do the admin and pay it out

probably just the late notice

i too like the entry form. idiot proof (good news for me)

I'm happy to be the banker if it's simple - one pool for £10 per player who wishes to enter the money comp.

Post "in for the money" on here and I'll send you my bank deets if you don't already have them.

When sending please make a clear reference so I know who it's from.

PS

The deadline for entries to the £10 competition is 1pm.

Just Teeks and me heads-up for the prized cockle then.

Entries list can be found here:
