This week the FedEx Cup Playoffs begin with The Barclays. If you are not familiar with the FedEx Cup, please read the previous blog titled "FedEx Cup".
So with this big event comes another addition of the Pick 5 Challenge. If you haven't played before, it's when we choose categories and each contestant picks five players they believe will perform well in the tournament that weekend, based on the categories we set. At the end of the tournament, we add up the prize money that each player earned and that determines which set of picks wins.
Past winners on this site include myself twice (Andrew Miller), Ben Billman, and Patrick Mudd. Greg Branda is "the best picker never to have won." So play along and post your picks in the comment section below, and get your name added to this illustrious list!
The categories this week are based upon the FedEx Cup standings. You can view these standings in my previous blog, or find them on the FedEx Cup website. You need to pick a player ranked in the top 5 of these standings, ranked between 5 and 30, then 30 to 70, then 70 to 100, and then 100 to 125. Greg and my picks are below. Join in!

My Sergio pick is helping me out tons. Tiger is too. I think I got this thing wrapped up!
ReplyDeleteWell, it's official. I win again. Greg remains the best picker never to have won a picking contest... Sergio carried me despite Tiger falling away... Charl was your best pick. Nobody else really did much.
