This thread is for the 2014 ESPN Best Ball Majors Challenge/The Masters. As with last year, this year includes all 4 majors. The rules, FAQ's and how to plat pages are linked to from here: http://games.espn.go.com/best-ball-pga-majors/2014/en/game

Pick a team of four golfers per round, not exceeding a $50 million salary cap. You can change players every round, so keep up on who is doing well and who is missing the cut!

YOU ARE ABLE TO ENTER LAST YEAR'S GROUP.

THIS IS NOT AN OFFICIAL THP CONTEST! JUST FOR BRAGGING RIGHTS.

We've been doing this as individual tournaments in past years but this year (as last year) we can also have the Grand Slam winner, for people who participate in all four events. We had 40 people participate in at least one tournament last year. Let's see if we can get more than that to participate in all four this year!

See the website below for all the rules and how to play. Only thing different is you must use your THP name or it will be removed, and only one entry per person.

The second challenge begins June 12 with The U.S. Open. You can get in until the first group tees off.

USE YOUR THP NAME IN YOUR ENTRY!!!

Group Name: THP Best Ball Majors 2014
Password: Hackers


(USE YOUR THP NAME IN YOUR ENTRY!!!)

Sign up and look for this under Private Groups. You must use the password to get in. Make sure you are actually in the group. If something happens and you aren't there, there's nothing I can do!

THIS IS A LOCKED GROUP. ONCE THE TOURNAMENT STARTS, YOU CAN'T GET IN OR LEAVE. I WILL OPEN IT UP AGAIN BEFORE THE BRITISH OPEN PART OF THIS CHALLENGE.

alright, I'm ready for tomorrow. I'm pretty happy how my team has done, considering I've rolled with my first picks till now. Made some changes though tonight as I need to go low.
 
Just realized I posted the overall standings, not the tournament standings earlier.
