Masters Sunday

Image
 Butch wins first 'Masters Fantasy Draft'!                                                    Butch struts after winning the Masters. Matsuyama's 3-under par 69 allows Butch to eke out a 1 shot victory over Scott, finishing at -20. Hovland got to 7-under after 14 holes to put Scott in the lead at -21 but gave back 2 strokes at the end to finish 5-under and leave Scott 1 short of a playoff with -19. Clint got a 68 from Xander Schauffle to come up 1 back of Scott to finish -18 and claim the $5 3rd place prize. Honorable Mention to Delbert and Bill F. at -16 and Ray at -15. Full Scorecard results likely posted tomorrow.  Good Luck to our SEMO Seniors playing at KCC tomorrow! Bid's Boys Results April 7 through 10 Tuesday April 7 Tough scoring day as not a single BB moved up. Clint and Jeff tie for Medalist with +2's. Rick wins his first 2026 CTP. Glen's...

Masters Saturday

Image
  In the real Masters, a runaway has turned into a dogwood fight. At least I hope tomorrow has an exciting finish. In our Masters Fantasy Draft, 6 strokes separate the top six entries. Butch, Clint, and Scott all chose Rory for Friday and Scottie for Saturday giving them 14-under par for the 2 days. Butch's better first round pick gives him a 3-stroke lead going into Sunday with Matsuyama and Aberg in his lineup for the final round. Clint will rely on Xander Schauffle as his only hope. Scott needs a good round from Victor Hovland to make a move on the leader. Here are the top 6 followed by the entire scoreboard for the 22 participants. Note: No alternate picks were needed as everyone has at least one player for Saturday and Sunday. $25 to the winner, $15 for second and $5 for third. -17 Butch -14 Clint -14 Scott -12 Delbert -12 Bill F -11 Ray

Masters Friday Game

Image
  Today we played a game combining our individual scores with 2 of the professional players and their scores today at Augusta. Each of our 17 contestants randomly picked a top twenty player and a 'second' twenty player to fill out their scorecard. Shelly shot a 2-under to add to her 2 pros total of -6 for a game winning score of -8. She wins the first place prize of $20. Roger and Brandon split the $15 2nd and 3rd place money as they tied for second at -6. Brandon has chosen to have free mulligans for the rest of 2026 in lieu of his $7.50 winnings. Tom wins the $20 special 'Hole #12 CTP' from the Blue Tees. Full results listed at end of column. More news tomorrow about our 4-day Masters Fantasy Draft. Spoiler Alert; Butch has taken the lead at -10. Hopefully Sunday will have results of our week of regular play, including details of this hole-in-one on #8 today.

Thursday Numbers

  Here are the numbers for Thursday and below that are the 17 entrants in the Masters Fantasy Draft.  Thirty-four dollars barring late entrants tomorrow morning. Probably a $25 and $9 split for first and second. 

Monday April 6

Image
  Masters Week is here and I have already announced the fantasy draft game which is for spectating only. For those filling out their ten golfers, the top 25 players according to the odds makers are listed at the bottom. Now that Friday's weather looks good, I am proposing a 2-day Thursday-Friday tourney with us playing along with the pros at Augusta. We will still play our regular game both days, no worries if you can't play the tournament, the regular game is there for those who are limited to only one of the two days. The tournament would be your Thursday Friday score combined with 2 pros (chosen at random) and their scores at the Masters. As always, more info later if you are interested.
