Correction on Pillip Price birdieing 18th on parlay. It now shows par.
Cnn still shows birdie in fact it shows entirely different scorecard.

Final update: 12-8-0 and +6.67 units
With all the matchup plays decided at the same time as the cut props, there only remained the Woods-Duval stats prop. It lost, but I am rather disappointed that I looked the gift horse in the mouth and got greedy! As stated above, greens in regulation is very highly correlated with scoring, so the sensible play would have been the "scalp": Woods' score & GIR stats and Duval's score & GIR stats. The "scalp" odds would have been -124, but it was virtually guaranteed to win. Of course, Duval beat Woods at both the scoring and greens in regulation stats!
Update on outright plays: 0-3 and -3.00
Nothing to show from the outright selections this week. Singh was very disappointing and finished 51st, while Price and Hoch did at least make charges, only to have started too far back to catch the top-4. Price finished 29th and Hoch, with the help of a hole-in-one, finished 7th.

If only Phat Phil had hit that putt harder ...
Still, the place finish meant I got my stake back plus a little and thanks to Stan's match-ups again, a nice profit.
Much credit to the cool Major Toms
sure can defend a lead.
Thought I'd add this great (paraphrased) section from Feinstein's "A Good Walk Spoiled" on Hal Sutton's renown eye for the ladies...
Sonya Toms (David's wife) is from Louisiana and she is, to put it mildly, a stunning woman.
When she ran into a tour vet caddy known as Sampson, he introduced himself and said
"Aren't you married to David Toms?"
"Yes I am," she said.
"You're from Louisiana aren't you?"
"Why, yes I am."
Sampson shook his head in amazement.
"How in the world," he said, "did old Hal Sutton miss you?!"
LMAO

Final update:
Outrights
Duval -5 (10th)
Furyk -6 (7th)
Bjorn +4 (63rd)
Di Marco -3 (16th)
Hoch -6 (7th)
Most of these guys had really solid tournaments but unfortunately none of them made the Top 5 to secure a place return. As they say close but no cigar !!!!
Matchups
As posted previously these were all decided at the cut and ended up a slightly unlucky 2-3.

Question: Can someone please explain network golf coverages fanscination with putting old broadcasters like Dick Enberg and Jim McKay on at the end of Majors to wax poetic about the tournament? I just don't get it?
DTB:
Thx for Calcavecchia. I see they adjusted it down to 12.5/1 from 25/1. Which is reasonable having shared 4th place.
Only surprise: I got paid out in full on Sluman about 3 months ago, when there was a tie.
Later, Dog. BTW, I'm Clint's friend. He says u can't hang w/ him on the links. Later, dude.

Chucky No message like that I am aware of. Of course I wouldn't know where to even look for an activity message.Hasn't been any change in balance.
