  Sorry about that, niv...I've not been able to get 2 to 2 1/2 straight free hours on a high-speed connection at any time this week between classes and just not being home long enough; I should be able to squeeze some time in this weekend (maybe)...I've been keeping in constant contact with Aaron and he said he'd be available for the weekend, as well...

  And with that Week 2 draws to a close with all matches completed one day early!  Way to go everyone!

  Week 2 Nuggets:

  -  Both #1 qualifying seeds in each conference took a loss this week.

  -  The National South was 4-0 against the National North this week.

  -  There are still 8 players without a loss.

  -  There were 9 matches on Bethpage this week.  The most popular Bethpage setup was White Tees, Moderate Winds & Fast Greens with 3 matches played in those conditions.

  -  There were 7 matches on Kiawah this week.  The most popular Kiawah setup was Gold Tees, Moderate Winds & Very Fast Greens with 3 matches played in those conditions.

  -  Home course advantage is proving to be a huge factor in this league with Home players going 11 - 5 this week and 20-11 overall for both weeks.

  That's it for Week 2.  Week 3 scoreboard and matchups will be up around midnight tonight.  We also have one withdrawal from the league, but I anticipate no delay in the action thanks to having available alternates.

  Good luck in week 3! =)

  I apologize for the lack of updates this week.  It's been a busy week and keeping up with this has proven difficult to say the least. =(

  Everything has been changed over to Week 4, but I just didn't have time to do Match Notes this week.  Again I apologize and I'll make a better effort next week.

  Good luck in week 4! =)

  Psst, wake up!  It's time for Week 5!

  Week 4 Nuggets:

  -  The home players were only 9-7 last week!

  -  coolswing is the only undefeated player left!

  -  The course split was 9-7 in favor of Kiawah

  -  Can you believe that one quarter of the regular season is already over?

  ----

  Week 5 will be your first of four non-conference matches this season.  In terms of tiebreakers these four games are the quote/unquote "least important games" since non-conference record is not used as a tiebreaker. 

  However, despite all of that nonsense there are some really good matches on the dockett this week including:

  (3-1) Kosei82 at (3-1) villadeoro

  (3-1) TallAcePaul at (3-1) lilrob88

  (3-1) t.j-jiminez at (3-1) claremoreblue

  Huge significance in the first two matches listed there as the first match pits division leaders against each other while the players in second place in those same divisions also battle it out.  So much for least important right?

  Which conference will lay claim to being superior after the first week of match ups?

  We'll find out soon enough because it's RED vs BLUE week in the WMPL and conference bragging rights are at stake!

  Play well, represent your colors and good luck in Week 5!

  I've just played an Incredible match with Cody6202000 as both players just peppered the pins the entire time and stroke wise I was -15 and cody -14 including 1 eagle each !  The highlight for me was being able to withstand the pressure that Cody was just throwing at me hole after hole, and Cody really used his home advantage to the fullest as I've never played the Kiawah course in conditions like that before !

  Thanks for a great match Cody and well played too, you were just a little unlucky on the day with so many close misses, the difference between us was that I made 1 less mistake that's all ! 

  Thanks again niv, oops should be WGTniv now ! (congratulations btw niv, I didn't know about it until recently !).  It's just been an awesome tourney with an amazing group of great players and the matches are just some thing I've never experienced on here or in real life !
