    I like it better that way too but this is fun also. I have done a pool along side this one for most of the majors picking 5 golfers staying under a 30 point cap using the world golf rankings as salary of each player.

    here is the one from 2014 for example



    Should we do 2?

    If you take the top 7 favs, you're going nowhere. here's proof:

    masters 2016 : missed cut : scott, mikelson, fowler
    pga 2016 : missed cut : d.johnson, day,rory,sergio
    pca 2016 : missed cut : day, stenson, (spieth +9, fowler +9)
    us open 2016 : missed cut : rory, rose, mikelson, snedeker, hideki, +++

    For the future, I can setup a contest on fanduel that employs a salary cap. I could do it tomorrow for Thursday's slate if interested. It would be from Thursday-Sunday.

    Free entry on their site and we could have points awarded on SBR.

    Just to be clear on the scoring:

    If you have 7 players and one misses the cut and the remaining 6 move on, will the 10 stroke penalty be dropped since you are only grading the top 6?

    With the recent news of Dustin Johnson, can we change our pick once it has been posted?
