    Don't know if you saw my corrected post, I think your point has come out big time!!!  For example, Aphrodite, Wooden Tee Brits, and  serenity B are in the top 8 bracket and only 1 can get to final 4,  Three of us were in final 4 of the Grand Prix!

    "ELCC#2 plays Future Golf Champions if I was a betting man!  Not to rub salt but Lisa's point all along has come true, #2 seed qualified 29th.   #3 seed qualified 32nd.  #6 seed qualified 28th and they get rewarded for money won by the CC and it;s total membership!  I have the brackets  all figured out except if there is confusion, they may wait until next week to officially start.  Who knows at this point?"

    Yes noticed shortly after posting, revised now. Probably still something out on there, that's why I don't arrange these things :)

    My result was a little different, but  you are my kind of man.  No grass growing under our feet.  Maybe what they said was final is not, who the heck knows.  I did have to look up field of 32 seeding positions for a knockout tourney,  Aphrodite, Wooden Tee Brits, and Serenity "B" all ended up in the top 8 bracket??  Not the way I would have done this, qualification should have meant more in my opinion!  Correct Lisa?

    RichJohn,

     

    As a smaller club, I did bring the qualification and seeding process up with alberto prior to the start of the event, noting that no matter how well we did, our fate was sealed, but the organisers set the rules before we signed up and they told me they wouldn't change so close to the start.

    Even if I disagree, they were as I said, put on the site before we all signed up and so we should adhere to the rules for this event!

    So, even though I do agree with you, my club will do our best against a club which happens to have earned many millions more in CCs than us as those are the rules.

    Affo, I agree.  Once Rules are in place we live with them.   However, we can learn as well and make things better in the future.  For one, we need some direction this morning.  It is holiday in USA but trying to let my teams know what to do and who they play.  As of now, I've made assumptions based on the rules!!!!!  Hope I guessed correctly!!

    I would worry more about how each team qualified, rather than money won, your SEL # 1 shot  738 to qualify and you face in first round a 749 qualifier.  I would say your team is the favorite in round 1!!!
