Once again, a big player pulls out after the deadline for making changes and messes up many teams, putting them at an instant disadvantage.
I know it's in the rules that if a player pulls out after the deadline then no replacement is available but, quite frankly, it sucks.
It should be possible to have auto replacement up until the first shot is hit.
I appreciate there has to be a cut-off and if someone pulls out after the start but before they've teed off then that's tough but it still sucks.

It's been the biggest fault with this game from the start.

Yup looks like I've lost my captain because of this, I think at least if a guy pulls out whoever replaces him (provided he hasn't started) should go in your team. At least that way you get some points.

That's my points screwed as well then..

Youd think they would allow substitute picks pre tournament that automatically get subbed in, which is exactly what they do with PGA tour fantasy team.
They do...up until the deadline closes for changes. After that, which may be 6 hours before play, you're stuffed...

I have three playing over the weekend.
Two missed the cut and one never started, he was my joker last week but not this week, thankfully.
Bryson's my Captain this week and he's going pretty well .................................. so far!

I have Bryson as captain as well, as well as Haotong Li, who is currently runner up. Two of my others made the cut but are somewhere mid-field at the moment. So all things considered, not too bad.
