Masters 2009 - Final Results

Congrats to Fred Tausend who outlasted Taegan Brandsma and Adam Meier to claim the $500 First Price. His team of Woods, Perry, Baddeley, & Katayama finished 34 under as did Taegan Brandsma’s team, but Fred won the tiebreaker -Perry over Stricker. All tie breakers were decided by the scores of the A, B, C, and then D player.

The Top 15, the 2 highest scores (Marcus Rufledt & Carl Ingrum), and the Sunday consolation tourney (won by Joel Behlmer), are published in the EXCEL file.

I won’t be back home until Thursday of this week so I won’t be sure if all the monies are in. I’ll take any shortfall out of the consolation and the last place pools . Notify me of any mistakes before Friday. Results will be final on Friday and I will mail out all checks on Saturday, April 18.

Thanks to all who participated. It was a great final round and hopefully this pool added to your enjoyment of the tournament.

Masters 2009 - Day 3 Results

After the 2nd Round, Adam Meier (-26) holds a three stroke lead over Taegan Brandsma. (Last year I had a 7 stroke lead and lost it on Sunday). More importantly, 11 of the top 15 have either Campbell or Katayama so if they go south there is room for others to move up.

The worst score is currently held by Shaun Joyce who is one stroke ahead of Carl Ingrum entering the final round. Remember, these two places will pay $75 and $50 this year.

Saturday’s consolation pool of $100 will be split 5 ways between Jim Urlick, Terry Barker, John Bartoline, Keith Manke, and Kelly Conley. Their three players finished 10 under and the tie breaker was tied as well. Sunday’s consolation pool starts from scratch for all qualifying 3 man teams.

Special props must go to Taegan Brandsma who has four teams in the top 15! Nobody has ever had more than one team place in the money before.

Woods, Ogilvy, Villegas and Couples were the most popular picks, yet only Dan Marple had this team. Amazing.

Let’s hope the final round has some drama.

• Payout levels - $2,200 paid out (subject to all monies being collected). We will pay out 15 places, plus the $100 consolation tourney on Saturday and Sunday. NEW THIS YEAR – For the 148 teams that made the cut, we will pay $75 for the HIGHEST team score and $50 for the 2nd Highest score.
• Player scores after the 2nd Round
• Team standings
• Teams eligible for the Sat and Sun consolation pool (remember, this is actual Sat and Sunday scores, not cumulative)

Let me know of any errors.

The next update will be posted on Sunday morning.

Masters 2009 - Day 1 Results

Sorry for the late 1st round posting, but we have 547 teams, the most ever and it took awhile to enter all teams.

Be sure to check that I correctly entered your players, send me an e-mail @ john.brzana@conagrafoods.com if you see a mistake.

I haven’t had time to completely enter who has paid and who hasn’t, but if everybody pays we will pay out $2,200.

I created four different workbooks: Round 1 scores, team scores by player, standings, and picks by player (first 500 teams).

The four most popular picks were Woods, Ogilvy, Villegas, and Couples.

Adam Meier is leading with a score of 19 under, but a lead after round 1 means next to nothing.

Enjoy the weekend and hope your team makes the cut.
The Round 2 update will be posted Saturday morning before the start of Round 3.
