Week #11 Results

Game of the Week
Rick beat Aaron (234-188)
Rick woke up from his slumber and put the hurt on Aaron. Rick picked three eventual top 10 finishers early in the week and rode them to victory, so while this wasn't brought on by managerial brilliance, it was an impressive win. Surprisingly, Aaron let Stewart Cink rot on the bench or it might have been a closer final score.

Other Games
Geo beat Jim (210 to 190)
Jeff beat Hugh (196-184)
David beat Babe (184-158)

Week #10 Results

While the US Open had some drama (understatement of the year), the PGL had some of its own this week.

Game of the Week
Deep Rough (Jim) edged Gunga-Galunga (David) 146-144
I narrowly avoided back-to-back losses with a gutsy win over struggling David. Too much tinkering almost cost me the win; I took out Retief Goosen in favor of Stuart Appleby for the weekend and he stunk it up. David was dealt a hard blow when Luke Donald withdrew in the middle of the final round.

Other Games
Missed Cuts (Jeff) slayed Swinging and Missing (Aaron) 174-118
Carjacks (Babe) outlasted Birdie Kingdom (Geo) 134-116
Rick's Varsity Team (Rick) showed he has a pulse in a win over The Bandits (Hugh) 130-108

NOTE: Tiger Woods has season ending surgery today. More info here.

St Jude Championship

Game of the Week
Swinging & Missing (Aaron) edged Deep Rough (Jim) 158-158
Aaron pulled out the tight win when Justin Leonard rolled in the putt in the sudden-death playoff. I'd put Immelman in for the fourth round late on Saturday night and he came close, but couldn't put me over the top. I invoked a rule from 2007 which states that if an owner has the tournament winner on his team then he automatically wins all ties. I'll get Aaron later in the season.

Other Games
Missed Cuts (Jeff) tops Gunga-Galunga (David) 146-140
Birdie Kingdom (George) ripped
Rick's Varsity Team (Rick) 138 - 88
Carjacks (Babe) beat The Bandits (Hugh) 146 - 138


Bring on the US Open!!

Week #8 Results

Game of the Week
Gunga-Galunga (David) tops Swinging & Missing (Aaron) 174 - 162
Both owners set their lineups for the week and left them alone through Sunday. Both had Kenny Perry (the eventual winner) in their lineup. In the end, it was very strong Saturday rounds by Stewart (Cink) and Stuart (Appleby) that put David over the top. Aaron can take solace in the fact that his team total would have beaten every other team in the league this week. It still stings though.

Other Games
Deep Rough (Jim) upended Missed Cuts (Jeff) 150-68
Birdie Kingdom (George) nipped The Bandits 144 - 142
Rick's Varsity Team (Rick) spun out Carjacks (Babe) 140 - 132

Wow! A lot of close games this week! Everyone but Jeff and I was in a squeaker.

Good luck at The St. Jude.
