The first big Golf tournament of the year starts this week, and it has more interest than normal with the return of Tiger Woods. On another message board, I been reading about a weekly pool for PGA Tournaments based on Vegas Odds. I willing to administrate it here if there is any interest. Let me know. If we can get a half-dozen or more players, I’ll run it here. ---

I’m in. Heads up, tho - plan for light participation. Historically, it has been tough to get more than 5-6 Dopers interested in anything golf-related. ---

You can increase the views fourfold if you change the title to “First Annual Tiger Woods Naked Mistress Masters Pool!” ---

LOL, I want to parlay the bet that Tiger would hit a mailbox, a fire hydrant, and a tree on his opening drive. Hitting a tree is listed at 5/1, and a hydrant is not too far fetched (sprinkler head), but the mailbox has got to be a Million to one shot. ---
