Question:
How many points are up for grabs in total on day 1 & day 2.
I thought it was 8 (4 foursomes & 4 fouballs).
Geordie seems to think its 7. Who's right?

results
the correct predictions were
winner USA
top scorers Poulter and Mahan
margin 5 points
winning putt Furyk
day 1 usa 51/2 - 2 1/2
day 2 usa 9 - 7
of those
5 went for usa
no-one got Poulter
2 predicted Mahan
no-one got the margin right
2 got Furyk
no-one got the day score right
2 got the day 2 score right
with -2 points for each point out on the winning margin [and -1 point for a half out] the results in reverse order are
awayawardlad -14
flatz and lc -6
rammy -4
ngreggors -3
geordie and sky -2
dodgy punter 2
harchiefan 7
shamardal 8
Tawndres 11
Yaiyam 19
WINNER
WITH A MASSIVE 26 POINTS
BINGE
Well played Binge...
for the record
Binge predicted USA (10pts) Furyk (15) and the day 2 score (5) but was -4 for the predicted margin [he said 3]

Bugger, just missed out on the bronze. Well played Binge, nice tipping. Also thanks GR for running the comp!

Thanks for running the comp GR. I'm feeling pretty pleased with myself!
After it looked like the USA were definitely going to win it on Sunday, I'd worked out that it was either Furyk or Holmes who'd hole the winning putt so was very happy as JB stiffed his approach to the 17th and Furyk slid his 5'er past on the 16th.
