U.S. Open Results

After a dominating performance through all four rounds, young Rory McIlroy is the 2011 U.S. Open Champion making Northen Ireland the home of back-to-back U.S. Open Champions.

25 of our pool participants had Rory as one of their squad for this week and that will net them each $1.44 million in earnings for this win.

This week's winner is Loyd Davis with total earnings of $2,609,871.  Mr. Davis put together a solid crew this week with McIlroy, Day, Garcia and Johnson.  That vaults him from the 77th spot all the way to the number 8 spot.  Your entry fee is on the way via PayPal Mr. Davis.  Congrats on a great week.

Our overall leader is Hill Shands who also had a solid Open.  Hill picked back-to-back tournament winners the for the past two events (very rare feat).  Remember that the top 7 spots will pay out as follows.  There's still two events to make up some ground.

1st Place ---------------------------$1,217
2nd Place -------------------------$845
3rd Place --------------------------$507
4th Place --------------------------$304
5th Place --------------------------$237
6th Place --------------------------$169
7th Place --------------------------$101


As always, please double-check your totals to ensure they are accurate.  Final results and earnings can be found here: http://scores.espn.go.com/golf/leaderboard

The British Open is only 4 weeks away and we only have two tournaments left.  Start thinking about how you want to play these last two events.  Some of us have some major catching up to do.  Like last year, I will award the person in dead last at the end of the season exemption into the 2012 Majors Pool.  To qualify, you must have submitted golfers for each of the 5 events.

I will send out an email a week prior to the British.
