THE US Masters Tipster Competition 2015

[Karabiner]

Does an amateur have to make the cut to win our group or if they all miss the cut is it lowest score or no score?

An amateur (or a player in any other category) 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.

Just testing your consistency 

Most people would categorise my consistency as stodgy.

Once all the players have completed a hole (and there's a break in the tennis!) I'll publish the first table of the competition.

A tad early perhaps but it may be the only chance some of you get to see your name near the top of the table.
