2021 Travelers Championship Annual Contest

[gwhuskyfan]

Hi all,

Each year for the past two, I've run a contest for the Travelers Championship through The Connecticut Scoreboard Podcast. We've had a ton of boneyard participants in the past so wanted to share once again! Rules are simple - pick the required number of golfers from each tier and lowest total score wins. This year I got some great giveaways for the top 3 finishers (and always looking for more to give out if you know anything/anyone)!

1st Place: Bubba Watson signed hat, Chris Cote's Golf Shop gift card, LocalVyntage GHO T-Shirt, and Breakfast Ball Golf Company Hat
2nd Place: LocalVyntage GHO T-Shirt, Mondo Middletown gift card
3rd Place: LocalVyntage GHO T-Shirt

Enter here: 2021 Travelers Championship Contest

Thanks for putting this together.

Of course! One of my favorite things each year!

@gwhuskyfan anywhere we can view the scores live?

 

[storrsroars]

Woof... expect to lose half my team tomorrow. Cut line will likely be -1 or -2. But my Patrick Rodgers pick in Tier 5 is killing it!

Working on updating it now. Should have a link for everyone tomorrow.

Sorry for the delay... have to find a way to automate this scoring next year! Everyone who has completed today's 2nd round as of 4 pm has been updated. Later tonight will update the rest.

Nice final groupings for tomorrow. Day and Bubba give fans a couple of familiar names.

Still don't have confidence Day's back can hold up for four days. But good on him if it does.

 

[storrsroars]

Oy does my team stink today. And that's with being one of the only two entries with Harris English.

First time in last 2 years I didn't pick Ancer in a pool in any tourney. I'll never doubt him again.

 

[Chin Diesel]

Helluva finish with Hickok and English. Great theater over last 90 minutes.

Bubba was losing $200k every hole between 14 and 18.

People are getting their money's worth.

Helluva finish with Hickok and English. Great theater over last 90 minutes.

The Travelers has become one of the coolest events on the tour. It's remarkable.

 

[gwhuskyfan]

This is just unreal. Both of these guys going at it

Yeah, great theater.

 

[superjohn]

This is crazy.

 

[storrsroars]

I'm waiting for this thing to be over to go and pick up some dinner. I'm getting really hungry now.

ftr, there have been several 8-hole playoffs, the last in 2012. And there was an 11-hole playoff in 1949.

44 minutes to sunset in Hartford.

Love the love from Jim Nantz

 

[Chin Diesel]

Hickok with the clutch par.
Wow.

Helluva finish with Hickok and English. Great theater over last 90 minutes.

Bubba was losing $200k every hole between 14 and 18.

He looked almost like me today… I’ve never seen a pro destruct that bad, for that many holes. He should have won by 1-2.

 

[storrsroars]

That was an unfortunate release for Harris. Thought that would get within 10 feet.

 

[Chin Diesel]

Instant. Classic.

 

[storrsroars]

Whew. They probably could've gotten one more hole in, but that would've been it. Great playoff.

 

[superjohn]

That was awesome!

 

[Waquoit]

I second the motion that it's so much better that one of them won it, instead of one of them losing it.
