Fantasy Four Recap: Wyndham Championship

I couldn’t be happier about G’Lover and Leonard picking up Top 10′s this week, but still some congratulations goes to Arjun Atwal who proves that sleepers are everywhere. Golfers can find their rhythm at any point, so it’s hard to really predict winners, as seen by our own fantasy four events. However, collectively, we’ve picked 6 out of the 18 winners during the Fantasy Four season…which isn’t too bad. This is the end of month 4, but the contest is far from over. There are 4 events left for double points! It’s sort of like a FedEx Cup Fantasy Four Bonus Round. Can you tell I’m excited? Let’s just get into the stats for the (low scoring) Wyndham Championship.

• Number of Entries: 10 (once again, missing Bryan and Mick)
• Number of Golfers Selected: 20  (awesome!)
• Most Popular Pick: Carl Pettersson– picked 5 times
• Number of Missed Cuts/WD’s: 8– Moore, Pettersson, Couples, Stenson, Cejka, Stadler, Duval, Kim
• Number of Top 10’s: 3  – Justin Leonard (T3), Lucas Glover (7), Brandt Snedeker (T8)
• Number of Top 10-Top 25’s: 4 – Jacobsen (T12),  Kevin Na + RSJ + Leishman (T18)
• Top Nike Golfer: Justin Leonard (T3)
• People That Selected the Winner: 0 (Arjun Atwal)
• Average Points: 5.4 (2nd lowest scoring week ever)

Ryan Moore, Jason Dufner and Carl Pettersson really let everyone down. Popular sleeper pick, Freddy Couples, failed to make the cut, also. Courtney took a couple of Nike boys and pulled out the win!

Courtney Z’s Winning Team (16 points) : Justin Leonard (T3), Lucas Glover (7), Fredrik Jacobsen (T12) and Henrik Stenson (MC)

However, Courtney failed to capture the monthly win. NG Nation wins the monthly points race, however, since I’m not eligbile to receive prizes, Meredith Wang wins Month 4. (That’s back to back wins heading into the playoffs).

Hit the link to check out the Wyndham Championship Fantasy Points to see how you fared this week.

That’s it for Month 4 and Meredith still has the lead. However, points are doubled for the next 4 events so there should be plenty of movement!

I’ll be back with a FedEx Cup Preview and also the Fantasy Four Playoff Edition: The Barclays.

Stay tuned and congrats again to Meredith.
