I have teed off in the playoff and scored a 3. I'm hopeful that this will get me into the next round

irony towers that was indeed a fine game with as many ups, downs and stomach-clenching moments as any roller coaster ride. Truly enjoyed it.
After a sober evening, stride down to the tee. Max handed me our regular starting club, biffed down the middle. Second shot barely contemplated before it too set off into the cool Yorkshire morning. Max had barely passed me the putter before the ball rattled in for a birdie 3 in (for me) probably record breaking time.

Oh Foxy, what wouldn't I give for such breezy nonchalance in the pit of the crucible? For me, second-guessing means trying to piece together how others got there; for you it means taking a second to guess.
Today I seem to have thought my way into your head more successfully than you, as I landed an eagle 2. And that is that.
The other placings according to tiebreak are:
2) Simon G
3) nmrfox
4) ad hoc

Congratulations, irony towers. To think this sort of talent wasn't selected for the last Ryder Cup.

Stand by for the next Ryder Cup in May/June. Since I didn't participate fully in either of the previous editions I'll definitely book myself a spot this time, and I'll declare for ROW by dint of an Irish great-grandparent.
This time round it may be more of a job to get us quorate on either side, so I'm keen to recruit some new faces into the matchplay fold. How about it, 1974ddr Cal Alamein jwdd27, and can we get matt j Uncle Ethan back on board? I'm mentioning it now in case they'd like to get their eye in on the grading ladder.Last edited by irony towers; 26-03-2023, 13:14.

Nice one irony towers! Richly deserved for all of your efforts in running this tournament and you certainly should've won our match as i got streaky on the last two holes. Enjoy your celebrations this evening!

Well done, irony towers. A worthy and popular champion, and you certainly did it the hard way.
As we say in The Netherlands - dik verdiend!

WMT2: finishing position in previous matchplay tournament
Pts: match points
S-B: Sonneborn-Berger points (first tie-break if equal on match points) = final match points of players you beat + half of match points of players with whom you halved
R1-4: your result and the finishing position of your opponent, eg in Round 1 irony towers beat pebblethefish, hence W14 as pebblethefish finished 14th
% won: percentage of holes played that you won
% <4: percentage of holes you played under par (in fewer than 4 goes)
Notes:
irony towers won WMT3 on the extra playoff hole, which is not included in the % won and % <4 calculations.
Simon G was placed ahead of nmrfox on account of a greater proportion of holes won.
Sits was placed ahead of lambers, and Foot of Astaire's ahead of Levin, on account of winning their respective head-to-head matches.
The hole defaulted by ad hoc was counted as a win for San Bernardhinault but not as a loss for ad hoc.
