Looks like Day has withdrawn after playing six holes, so anyone who has picked him is down to four players.

BoRed · « **Reply #361 on:** March 23, 2017, 09:03:05 am »

After day one, Gerry and Pete's picks have three points, mine have two, olly's are on 1.5, while dudley's have all suffered defeats.

Wiesberger plays Noren today, if he can win that match he should be able to win the group.

Buck Pete · « **Reply #363 on:** March 23, 2017, 11:40:44 am »

I've got high hopes of Kjeldsen. Sure I backed him in a Matchplay event before and he did well. Not brilliant reasoning for a pick I know but hope he delivers.

Mcilroy V Woodland half or a Mcilroy win would be nice if Soren can beat Grillo.

Hunter Mahan. -2 after 2

Noren 2 up thru 3.

Shite from Pieters too, don't think I'll be getting many points from this.

Buck Pete · « **Reply #367 on:** March 23, 2017, 07:12:23 pm »

Gary Woodland withdraws giving Mcilroy the win

But that means Kjeldsen needs just a half to go through tonight.

Indeed, so probably not such good news for McIlroy.

If Grillo beats Kjeldsen and McIlroy beats Grillo there'll be a play-off. Seems possible.

It surely is possible, but it would have been better for McIlroy if Kjeldsen had two chances to lose a match.

Having said that, and despite having picked him, I'll be perfectly happy if the Manc is sent packing tonight.

P.S. Why did you delete that post?

I deleted my post because I'm a bit confused regarding the format of this event. If Kjeldsen and McIlroy both finish with 2 wins 1 loss I don't know if Kjeldsen would go through as he beat McIlroy.

No, there'd be a playoff, there are no other tie-breaking rules.

BoRed · « **Reply #372 on:** March 23, 2017, 10:13:51 pm »

Kjeldsen is 3 up with 6 to play, so I think that's settled.

That also means that every one of us will have at least one player eliminated by the end of play today.

Gerry Attrick · « **Reply #373 on:** March 23, 2017, 10:14:34 pm »

Noren's through too as Molinari withdrew after today's match.

Of our picks, Wood and Wiesberger have been eliminated today, but it looks like Sullivan, McIlroy, An and Luiten will be joining them soon.

I like Match Play golf but I wish they'd just revert to straight knockouts instead of Round Robin. I think it's a bit of a slog to get through so much golf and makes it really tough for older players to win it.

Buck Pete · « **Reply #376 on:** March 23, 2017, 11:06:50 pm »

Nicely done Soren. Lie in tomorrow and knock a few practice balls about in the afternoon lad

I agree. And the fact that many players have nothing to play for on the final day of group play takes the sting out of it, too.

Buck Pete · « **Reply #378 on:** March 24, 2017, 09:18:53 am »

Yeah there's quite a few players who have no chance of qualifying today no matter what they do and I guess would rather have just flew home last night.

dudleyred · « **Reply #379 on:** March 24, 2017, 09:52:25 am »

Tricky one as players won't want straight knockout and risk flying in for one round - the trade off is dead matches today- that's caused by only one to qualify

Buck Pete · « **Reply #380 on:** March 24, 2017, 01:03:54 pm »

Local lad Rafael Campos is doing really well. He must know this track like the back of his hand.

Top 10 finish in this last year too and why I picked him. Didn't have much else to go on.

Hopefully the occasion and stuff doesn't get to him.

BoRed · « **Reply #381 on:** March 24, 2017, 02:53:03 pm »

Talking of having nothing to play for, Wood isn't even trying against Na. I'm only interested because I picked Thomas, of course.

Haas, on the other hand, is getting some help from Willett, but he still has a lot to do himself.

BoRed · « **Reply #382 on:** March 24, 2017, 03:15:41 pm »

Wood just won three holes in a row

. Still needs two to help Thomas, though.

BoRed · « **Reply #383 on:** March 24, 2017, 03:25:48 pm »

And another one!

BoRed · « **Reply #384 on:** March 24, 2017, 03:37:10 pm »

Five in a row! Obviously, Thomas would still need to win his match, and the playoff.

BoRed · « **Reply #385 on:** March 24, 2017, 03:53:10 pm »

Aaaah. Wood wins the sixth in a row, and Thomas has just gone all square, with just three to go.

Gerry Attrick · « **Reply #386 on:** March 24, 2017, 03:56:47 pm »

Mickelson has kicked the shit out of everybody he's played so far.

BoRed · « **Reply #387 on:** March 24, 2017, 04:20:18 pm »

I officially hate Justin Thomas.

He'll face McGirt next, every chance he'll make it to the quarterfinals.

Gerry Attrick · « **Reply #389 on:** March 24, 2017, 07:37:45 pm »

Haas makes it through and will play Kevin Na. Good chance for Bill to reach the QFs.

BoRed · « **Reply #390 on:** March 24, 2017, 07:39:31 pm »

Fine by me.

BoRed · « **Reply #391 on:** March 24, 2017, 07:45:30 pm »

Zach Johnson looks to be well on the way to the next round too, though it's too early to jump to conclusions.

Gerry Attrick · « **Reply #392 on:** March 24, 2017, 07:49:33 pm »

If Fleetwood can come back to beat Kuchar, he'll be in a play-off with Z Johnson.

Didn't realise you had Zach too Bo. Let's hope he doesn't spunk this away and Kuch keeps his end of the bargain.

BoRed · « **Reply #395 on:** March 24, 2017, 08:54:32 pm »

Kuchar's done his part.

Unbelievable.

BoRed · « **Reply #397 on:** March 24, 2017, 09:49:02 pm »

Of all our picks, five made it through. Four of them will have their points doubled.

Buck Pete · « **Reply #398 on:** March 25, 2017, 09:49:14 am »

Zach v DJ

Tough ask but you never know with Match Play

Gerry Attrick · « **Reply #399 on:** March 25, 2017, 09:53:59 am »

The last 16 lineup is very underwhelming.
