A) Rhys Davies & Darren Clarke (Stephen Gallacher)
B) Nick Dougherty & Oliver Fisher (David Howell)
C) Matt Haines & Colin Montgomery (Phillip Price)

It is this sort of event that highlights a lack of depth in European golf. Makes picking from group C a total lottery.

Have to say agree with Mac here this week as well PGA Tour has transitions with a good field in europe we have Sicily where the course hasn't even bedded in yet and the biggest draw is constantino rocca who has been off main tour a long time. But I digress.

Thanks,

yep, all fine

Mark F Haastrup and Paul Waring both out from Cat C. And I picked both of them...

I'll bring in Garcia-Heredia as my replacement, he hasn't started yet, if that's ok with people

Its something I should have asked can someone tell me how does the reserve pick work

asdral - it's only if you make your picks early and then one of your choices doesn't start. Your reserve will come in automatically. If you know your picks are playing then you don't need reserves but it's always worthwhile just in case someone has a late injury

cheers Davie

Scores now up. Congratulations riktic and Meisce, who is on fire at the moment!

Anyone with a query on the scores, just ask, mistakes are possible...
