It was brought to my attention that I slightly over-stated everyone's earnings.
All earnings totals for the British have been corrected and had lite affect to the overall rankings. Edward Johnson was still our weekly winner.

British Open Results
Wow, epic choke. Adam Van de Velde had a 4 shot lead with 4 to play and ended up playing the last 4 holes four over. What a clutch put by Ernie to essentially win the championship. The last 45 minutes of this tournament proves that sports is the best reality TV period. Gotta feel for Scott but I think pretty boy will survive.
I was expecting to give out the $1.4 million only to 12 Scott backers, including myself. But instead, 28 people are $1.4M richer for picking the Big Easy. 3 of those 28 are currently ranked in the top 10. Sheesh.
The winner this week was Mr. Edward Johnson with total earnings of $1,965,145 (Els, Woods, Harrington). Please contact me with your mailing address so I can send you your $200 check. Congrats.
Edward was in 4th place heading into this tournament and now holds the overall lead over Stephen Shapiro who was able to stay in 2nd. Although I envy your position at the top, I'm glad I don't have the pressure to hold the top spot for our grand prize of $2,200.
At the bottom of the leaderboard, Chesney Coker and Lee Simmons currently are in the running for the two exemption spots for next year.
Please double-check your earnings totals to make sure they are correct:
The PGA Championship is our final event and will begin August 9th. For those in the running for the top 9 spots, I would suggest you do your homework and start thinking about your players.
Contact me if you see any discrepancies with the final results.

The Open - Round 2 Results
Brandt Snedeker? Really? The guy who has never made a cut at The Open? 30-1 odds for him to win pre-tournament? Luckily, no one in the pool selected him but the likelihood of him holding the lead through Sunday with Scott and Tiger breathing down his neck is slim.
The player popularity leaderboard, scoring leaderboard and both British Opn links ave been updated with results from round 2. On the scoring leaderboard, I restated the Prior Rank column to only include golfers that will be teeing it up tomorrow.
As you can see from the Player Popularity Leaderboard, Adam Scott is at the top of the pool since no one had Snedeker. Only 12 people, including yours truly, had Scott and only 6 of the remaining 13 people have Tiger.
At the top of the Scoring Leaderboard is Thomas Zenter (ranked 41) at -19 total with 3 players making it to the weekend:
Scott -9
Woods -6
McDowell -4
Sitting pretty for the weekend.
Here's how the top 10 players are doing heading into the weekend (only one player in the top 10 had Scott):
I'll be up early as hell tomorrow for moving day and will update leaderboards and links sporadically during the round.
Good luck.

The Open - Round 1 Results posted
Results for round 1 have been updated on the Player Popularity Leaderboard, Scoring Leaderboard and British Open links.
The scoring leaderboard, was calculated differently than prior tournaments. I excluded the scores of any golfers not projected to make the cut (top 70 and ties) when tallying scores for each participant. This way, If you had Adam Scott at -6 but some hack at +6, it would not show you at even par.
Since we're only concerned about earnings, we only care about the players staying through the weekend.
I will post results for round 2 tomorrow at the conclusion of the round.
Good luck tomorrow.
