Well, I didn't think I'd ever post on this topic!
Interesting aritlce on golf digest about Lee Ann Pace who is leading the season long competition but who then took a 9 on one of the designated holes. Withdrew the next hole with a back issue but suggestion it could also be to preserve her hopes of winning the $1m as the score gets removed due to the withdrawal. Still needs to complete 5 more rounds to be eligible.
Now Lee Ann Pace has been quite clear it's a back issue (which could account for the 9) so I was hesitant to post, but I thought it was quite an interesting hypothetical dilema. She's only earned $43k this year and we know the women's tour doesn't have the same purses.
So, if you knew a WD kept you in the race for that prize would you do it? What about a club competition which has average medal score for example. I think you'd have to given how much easier it could make your golf career but that's coming from someone who as a kid would happily switch off the computer when a match wasn't going well in Champ Man so that I could win the league!

(On an LPGA note what a year Jin Young Ko is having and now on a 106 hole bogey free streak!)
