SPORTS CENTER CONTEST #163THE OPEN - DAILY CONTESTThe focus shifts from Tennis to Golf...
The Next Major Golf Tournament starts this Thursday... Formerly called The British Open, but now, simply
THE OPENINFORMATIONThe Open Championship, often referred to as The Open or the British Open, is the oldest of the four major championships in professional golf. It was first played in 1860 at Prestwick Golf Club in Scotland
This year, it is being played at the Carnoustie Championship Course in Scotland.
For this "Major", we will be having four daily contests. And the good news is, one entry covers all four contests.
That's right, One Entry gets you in 4 Contests... It just doesn't get any easier
However, instead of your normal 2 or 3 choices, you will be getting 18 choices
And instead of sharing "a pool", you will earn different amounts of WRZ$ based on the odds
You will pick one player from the list of 18 provided. If your player has one of the TOP FIVE scores for the day, you win the amount associated to the tier your golfer is in
NOTE: Normal Golf Tie breaking rules will apply - matching individual holes starting with the 18th and then backwards. If anybody has a question about this, feel free to PM me
AND THERE IS MORE... as an added bonus, if your player is the TOP scorer of the day, your payout increases by 50%... so a 20 WRZ$ payout turns into 30 WRZ$, or a 50 WRZ$ payout turns into 75 WRZ$
AND if by SOME CHANCE, NONE of the chosen golfers finish in the Top Five on any given day, we will make a payout to the best scoring golfer that was selected, even if they sucked
HERE ARE THE PLAYERS AND THEIR ODDS TO WINTIER ONE - 20 WRZ $
Dustin Johnson 7.7%
Rory McIlroy 6.7%TIER TWO - 30 WRZ$
Justin Rose 5.9%
Jordan Spieth 5.3%
Rickie Fowler 5.3%
Tommy Fleetwood 5.3%

Patrick Reed 3.2%
Paul Casey 3.2%
Alex Noren 3.2%TIER FIVE - 60 WRZ$
Phil Mickelson 2.4%
Marc Leishman 2.4%In other words, if you pick one of the favorites Dustin Johnson or Rory McIlroy, you only can earn 20 WRZ$ per day. But if you want to take a chance and pick a Tier Five golfer like Phil Mickelson, you can earn 60 WRZ$ per day
