It is actually sunny here in London at the moment sunny

but probably won't last too long. We're predicted more Rain Cloud

tomorrow - the residue of the ghastly weather you are having in the USA. Can't you keep it to yourselves???

by 1GrumpyGolfer Wed Feb 19, 2014 10:01 pm

Can tell I was tired last night seeing as I just added another 20 minutes to the time difference.

I've had enough of this ghastly weather too, we've had well over 4 feet of snow this winter (remember that starts on December 21). The sunny England comment stems from a programme that my wife used to watch that was presented by Miriam Margolies. It was filmed in Italy and England and every time they switched from Italy back to England they would say meanwhile in sunny England and the catchphrase stuck with us.

So all picks have been made and Ian Poulter will kick off with Rickie Fowler in a few minutes.

Here is the list of GolfChatUK Fantasy League Choppers:

Boo Weekley
Kevin Stadler
Marc Leishman
Rickie Fowler
Scott Piercy
Scott Stallings
Matteo Manassero
Pablo Larrazabal

Peter Hanson
Mikko Ilonen

These guys have not been picked so will undoubtably cause an upset somewhere along the line.

Jimmy Walker draws first blood beating Branden Grace 5&4. Everyone bar Mary_S and me starts with a smile.

Well not many people, especially Mary, saw that coming. Poulter dumped out in the first round after coming 4th last time around.

Dustin Johnson!...Luke Donald!!...Ian Poulter!!!...all out and who would have thought it?

Don't think many people would have backed against Poults...Dustin perhaps I should have known, is that about his 5th straight first round exit in this?...and what a hiding for Luke, has he still got the appetite for the game at the top any more?

by 1GrumpyGolfer Thu Feb 20, 2014 11:10 am

Lots of shocks today including some big blowouts and tight matches needing extra holes.

I don't think anyone has complete control of any of the brackets and I think it's highly likely that everyone will have a dog in the next set of races.

Some stellar and some shockers as round 1 of the Matchplay finished on day 1 for a change.

BlueCoverman starts strong again and shares the lead with SetupDetermines who has obviously put in a lot of matchplay practice in this year. They both have 23 wins and enjoy a 20 point bonus. RedRage is snapping at their heels as he has 22 wins which would have been enough for outright lead last year. Mary_S is bouncing back after last year's performance with 20 wins but she has lost her overall pick in Ian Poulter.

LadyPutt and Davie are hand in hand with 18 wins apiece. 1GrumpyGolfer has just 17 wins but this is the first time we've had everyone above 50% win ratio after round 1.

Davie and LP remain hand in hand as they are the only two left with their overall pick still in the hunt. Defeats for Stenson and McIlroy dent the chances or Red, Blue, Setup and I.

You're not so far away from Setup; only 1 win behind I think. Not sure how the brackets are shaping up and that could be the key.

As suspected SetupDetermines is slowly taking control of the Matchplay so all that pracice must be paying off. Mary_S is moving into position and will be the other one to watch, like Setup she has one bracket locked up and has three picks left in all the other brackets.

RedRage and BlueCoverman have two brackets locked up but are light in the other two. LadyPutt also has a bracket locked up.

All the number one seeds are out and there are some young guns looking to make a name for themselves. Davie and LadyPutt are still looking good for overall pick.

Screw this, I'm down to 3!

Davie left as the lone survivor in the overall winner stakes. Setup extends his lead some more with 6 picks through.
