I'm going to have a stinker this week due to over thinking my selection, I swapped out 4 in favour of Swedes & Danes and guess what, the 4 I've had in for weeks are all in the top 10 with 2 of them at 1 & 2 and the 4 newbies are nowhere to be seen :mad:

I'm doing okay, all my players made the cut, though Scott Hend did struggle yesterday and started today's round with a double bogey. Shame, he is my VC, so I would have loved for him to do better. But Hendrik Stenson, who is my captain, has recovered nicely from a rather bumpy start on the first day.

Who missed..?
If it was your Captain or Vice Captain then they don't get replaced....
Did you watch the video that unlocks CR..?

312,614 points for me, seeing as I dissected my team I didn't come out of it that bad, but I could have stole the day had I not changed it! Up another place in the overall league but due to a mid position in the weekly positions I've closed the gap on many above me, so I'm hovering ready to climb even higher.

Guys, I know about watching the video after selecting your team to get a cut replacement, but it does not appear to be giving me that option this week for the US open??? Is it just me???

Its only regular European tour event you get one for I believe. So none for the majors and WGC's with no cut and also not for the Dunhill Links.

Some big changes this week as several had good Capt & VC picks who came home.

French Open This week and some big money tournaments over the next month including The Open and the US PGA so it can all change with a lucky/ well worked out pick.

My first good week of the season!
I managed 1,515,970 points .................... nearly 25% of my season's total so far!
Captain won and my VC was tied second!
Probably peaked too early.

I've got 5 of mine still in the top 10 in France currently and can only (hopefully) see some of their positions improve....

to activate the cut replacement, you have to watch a 30 second video after you have selected your team

I just play it with the sound off,

I always do this, but this week I had a non-starter in Chris Wood and Shane Lowry missed the cut and I've got squat!?

I had Woody as well - because he pulled out before the start but after the midnight cut off he doesn't get changed.
If he'd pulled out at 11pm Wednesday then the system would have allocated another player - another example of the random rule changes that don't seem to work.

Was Lowry your C or VC?
They don't get replaced if they miss the cut - again, totally random rule...

Lowry was my VC, as you say, random rule changes you can't follow and seem somewhat unfair at times.
