The Weekly Steemit Scramble Contest
Tournament Information
PGA Championship
August 10 – 13, 2017
Quail Hollow – Charlotte, North Carolina
The PGA Tour heads to North Carolina for the final major of the season – the PGA Championship, hosted by the Quail Hollow Club. The PGA Championship will be played on the 7600-yard, par-71 course at Quail Hollow, which is hosting the event for the first time. The defending champion is Jimmy Walker, who shot a -14 to beat Jason Day by one stroke and claimed the $1.8 million prize. Walker and Day will be in the field for this year’s tournament. However, Rory McIlroy is the favorite to win the tournament, having won at Quail Hollow twice – and he also holds the course record.
The current weather forecast for Charlotte has high temperatures in the 80s with rain and thunderstorms on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

Player Selections and Multiplier
For the weekly Steemit Scramble, select three golfers from the tournament field that you believe will perform well and finish highest in the final standings. Based on the final results of the tournament, golfers will be assigned the following points:
Results | Points Awarded |
---|---|
1st – 5th place | 7 |
6th – 15th | 4 |
16th – 30th | 2 |
31st - final cut | 1 |
THIS WEEK’S 2x MULTIPLIER: Pick the FINAL SCORE FOR RORY MCILROY FOR THE TOURNAMENT in relation to par. (Example: -5, E, +3) The closest participant(s) to the multiplier statistic will earn DOUBLE their total points for the week. Bonus points will be added to the contestants’ point totals AFTER the multiplier has been calculated.
AN ADDITIONAL 5-POINT BONUS will be awarded to the winner of the tournament.
AN ADDITIONAL 5-POINT BONUS will be awarded to all unique golfer combinations. If two or more contestants choose the same golfers for the contest, then the contestant who entered their selections first will receive the bonus. Contestants that do not select a unique golfer combination will be ineligible for the multiplier and winning golfer bonuses.
How to Play and Win
In a comment on this post, submit your three golfers and your prediction for the weekly multiplier. ONLY ONE COMMENT SUBMISSION PER USER, PER WEEKLY CONTEST.
Submissions will be confirmed at the start of the weekly tournament. ALL CONTEST SUBMISSIONS MUST BE ENTERED PRIOR TO THE SCHEDULED START TIME AT THE FIRST TEE ON THE OPENING DAY OF THE TOURNAMENT.

There will be three winners each week. The winners will be the contestants with the most points gained, based on the points distribution outlined in Player Selections and Multiplier. All point totals earned from all contestants will carry over for the monthly and season-long contests.
The contest is funded with a minimum pot of 10 SBD. The total weekly pot distribution will be divided as follows:
Place | Rewards Percentage |
