Welcome to my PGA Golf Majors Pool!

A brief reminder: For each Major tournament, you will pick six (6) players to make up your Player Roster. The pool member with the lowest aggregate stroke total for their Player Roster is the winner for that tournament. All picks will be hidden until the first scheduled tee time on Thursday of the tournament. Cut players will get the highest score turned in on Saturday and Sunday. Good luck to everyone. If you have any questions, please contact me at jon@practical-golf.com

Rules

If you have any questions about these rules, please contact your pool commissioner Jon Sherman (jonDUPLICATE@practical-golf.com)
  • Picks are made for the following tournaments:
    • The Masters
    • PGA Championship
    • U.S. Open Championship
    • British Open Championship
  • For each major tournament, members select six golfers. Each golfer will have a salary assigned to them based on their odds to win the tournament. Participants will be assigned a fixed salary cap they must stay under in order to create their 6-player roster. These six golfers make up their Player Roster for that tournament.
  • Members will enter their guess for the total combined strokes of the winner of the tournament (e.g. 275) as a tiebreaker. In the event of a tie, the person closest to the actual stroke count will win.
  • Golfers CAN be picked more than once per season.
  • The scores of all 6 golfers on your roster count towards your score.
  • The goal is to be the member whose roster performs the best cumulatively (has the fewest total strokes ) as a team.
  • Any PGA Player who misses the cut, withdraws, or otherwise doesn't complete a round will be given the highest (worst) score of that day.
  • Performance is tracked for each tournament individually, but also in aggregate for all the tournaments.
