iG1304--rev 5/10/13 2:58 PM Page 1 CONTESTS 2013 BY iG EDITORS The Amazingly Easy Picking The Majors Contest Inside Golf's very popular "Picking The Majors" Fantasy Golf Contest is now in its fourth year and its success is based on how easy it is to play. Simply pick the player from each group who you think is more likely to do best during each year's next major... and you are done. Points are awarded for your choices who: make the cut - 1 point finish from 11th to 20th - 2 points finish from fourth-place to 10th - 3 points finish in third-place - 5 points finish runner-up - 10 points finish as the winner - 15 points Get the most points from the players you choose and you win! Players are grouped on two criteria... first that they are somewhat close in world ranking, and second, based on shared experience. For example, Lee Westwood and Martin Kaymer might go together under the title "Weren't These Guys #1 In The World Once"? To make the process more fun the iG Blogger makes each of his picks in the days leading up to the tournament and gives his insights for his choices. Also a week before the start, entry results are tabulated to see which players are emerging as the favourites in each grouping. Each contest goes live three weeks before the Major and there is a grand prize associated with each... a Nike VR_S Covert Driver plus 1 Dozen Nike 20XI Tour Golf Balls and a Tour Perforated Hat (valued at $400). The runner up will also get 1 Dozen Nike 20XI Tour Golf Balls and a Tour Perforated Hat . In the first Picking The Majors contest for 2013 more than 300 golf fans tee'd it and two participants made every right choice... Albert Bissonnette, Superintendent for the new Eagle Point Golf Course set to open later this year in Alberta and James Duff both made every pick right. The next one for the U.S. Open will be live on May 20th. To compete go to www.insidegolf.ca and click on the conetst entry bar that appears near the top of every screen.
