Surprise Winner in LLG U.S. Open Contest

As Dustin Johnson licks his wounds and Jordan Spieth celebrates his U.S. Open win it’s time to celebrate another champion: the winner of the Links Life Golf U.S.Open Pick a Winner Competition.  trophy

With so many big names missing the cut and others making late final round charges up the leaderboard the competition was fierce and the margin of victory the narrowest in the history of the contest.

Buoyed by Rory McIlroy’s late run and having all his players make the cut Lil Skins emerged as the 2015 U.S Open LLG Champion.

He selected winner Jordan Spieth (102), McIlroy (68), Mickelson (40), Rose (63) and Sergio (59) for a total of 331points. He narrowly edged out Masters winner Big Skins (me) by a point and a half.

I was hurt by Phil as my lowest point earner. G. Rennie while picking both the winner and runner up was taken down by Rickie Fowler’s measly 16.5 points. Your team needs to make the cut.

Big Dick was done in by Tiger’s eight points while Rickie also took out The Greek. Gordo was another player taken out by Rickie’s missed cut.

Congrats to Lil Skins and the rest of you can stop whining.

The Final Standings:

Lil Skins 331
Big Skins 329.5
G. Rennie 323
Big Dick 299
The Greek 297.5
Gordo 263
