First time i'm gonna be off work and get to see every shot of this and it got me thinking is there any way of doing some sort of Fantasy Golf for the golf followers on here.
Now i'm not great for organising these type of things, so if it deemed feasible to do i'm hoping someone else on here will take over the orgainsing of it
.
I was thinking say, if we got 12 of us to throw in 20 bucks and each person gets a Yank and a European and whoever gets the combined highest score wins, if there is a tie money is split obv, 3 way tie is split 3 ways blah blah but i reckon there's a good chance of there being an outright winner.
I was thinkin maybe if the pairings were fixed and some type of randomised draw could be done to determine what pairings each person got.
Was on PP website and was looking at the top combined scorer market and started matching the shortest price Yank with the longest price European and vica versa, then the 2nd shortest Yank with the 2nd longest price European etc etc. Some were the same price so just randomly paired them in that situation. It ended up where the pairings looked like this;
Woods - Hanson
Mcilroy - Overton
Mickelson - Jimenez
Stricker - Francesco Molinari
Westwood - Bubba
Kaymer - Zach
Furyk - Fisher
Donald - Rickiiiiii
Eduardo Molinari - Hunter Mahan
Poulter - Cink
Mcdowell - Dustin
Harrington - Kuchar
Do these seem anywhere near fair??? But it'll be a random draw (if someone can come up with an idea how that could be done) Obviously a huge amount depends on how many games each player plays but from what the 2 captains have said i expect all 24 to have played at least once by Sundays singles. And look, for only $20 it'll mean you'd should an interest in some pairings every session.
Well thats it, can it be done? is it worthwhile? would we get 12? and if it is can someone get it going
. I'm just hoping to get the ball rolling.
Or maybe there's a better way of pairing them, i dunno.......
