Default U S Open

If you guys want, I'll put something together for a competition.
Thinking along these lines:

Pick a team of 7 players. After the cut you remove two......you're remaining 5 must be out of the original 7. (your 2 may be made for you by crap play )

For the winner we have options:

Total money
Lowest combined score


Suggestions.......preferences encouraged. Put in your

FWIW and maybe unnecessary, a friend of my brother's hooked us up with this competition where the golfers were in 3 tiers (how they picked who's in what tier, dunno...seemed like reputation but current year FedEx points would make more sense) and your team had to include X from each tier.

That was a $$ entry comp so there was a payout for low score after each round as well as (in their case score) for tournament

Would 7 per team get a bit tedious to track? 2 'mulligans' is a good idea, and I guess 7 would only be for 2 days.

Maybe a point system with X points for rounds 1-3 and X*2 points for total or something along that line?
Like 5-4-3-2-1 for top 5 of each round and 10-8-6-4-2 at the end.

Sounds awfully complicated O. I'm willing to do the scoring, but not if it's real involved.

Here's what I'm thinking.

Rounds 1, 2 and 3....low score (total of your team) for the day wins 100K
If all 7 of your picks make the cut.....50K (multiple winners)
If all 7 of your players make the cut you must cut 2 of them before Rd 3 starts.
Round 4 will be whose team earns the most total money, wins a Mil!
If any of your team makes an Ace......50K.

****Pick the winner as a tiebreaker****


How do you feel about that O? Doable?

Following scoring online -So what would the approximate negadivi be for Mr Gregory who finished with a 92 (22 over par) 3 pars, 10 bogeys, 3 doubles, and 2 triples? Good thing he is not listed? Looks like a very tough test so far as a US Open should be. Will the winning score on Sunday be over or under par?
