    you are allowed max 3 entries per person.

    this is a pool contest.

    If 2 golfers miss the cut and 6 go on to finish, does the 10 stroke penalty (x2) get dropped?

    This presupposes that your 6 golfers who finish have better scores than the the two who had miss the cut.

    the 10 stroke penalty is added to each player individually, that misses the cut. your best
    6 golfers count for your final score.

    Welcome to SBR Forum, Damon2479.

    you would have to become a "pro" in order to join most contests and also to benefit
    from other SBR activities, You would also automatically qualify for eligibility in SBR's annual cash contest prizes, and exclusive SBR events. 50 SBR Pros are receiving a free three night stay in the Golden Nugget this August for the IFBC Bash.

    Please refer to this thread to find out the benefits of being a pro user;

    https://www.sportsbookreview.com/for...ts.html?slf=92

    and we're looking forward to see you there!

    No Thanks
    You should ask SBR to set up a single player tournament, a special one - just for you. Firedawg's one-man tournament. You'd be guaranteed a trophy this way.

    Other notable players 1/2 way through

    Fleetwood +1
    Stenson +1
    Rahm +15 **
    Speith +9 **
    Casey +6
    Garcia +14 **
    Mickelson +6
    Woods +10 **
    Hideki +5
    Kaymer +18 **
    Kuchar +12 **

    ** means missed cut. I guess there is an auto edit feature when using the m and c together.

    it's a censor on the forum because that is sometimes used as short for a payment method and SBR does not like anyone talking about deposit methods

    Is there a theoretical chance for my (better) entry to win a prize? Or once you have 3+ players miss the cut, you are out of contention?

    Spider - you have me down as having Rahm rather than Thomas. I had 7 that made the cut. That negates Mickelson and should remove a 10 point penalty.
