Rick - been playing this format on PGA for 5 years. Your bench doesn't count towards a usage unless you swap them in - and you'll want to just make sure to save a usage on the studs for when you know you'll play them (majors etc.) My league of 20 players has a weekly prize and cost, plus a segment payout too. Will be fun to see how it shakes out with a large group - GL
Thank you for the explanation of the fantasy league I signed up but didn’t see any rules. I think your right in a no cut event put guys on your bench that you don’t plan on playing.
It feels like just yesterday where I was hyped cashing in your Google spreadsheet golf simulations (Shoutout to the simulated Valero Texas open) that you were running during COVID... 2025 is a few hours away and I am still here and watching every week! 2025 = RickRunGolf
@RickRunGood It'll be our secret. I don't know if you know this, when you go to checkout, you can add a coupon code. That's the reason I asked. Thanks Rick.
from what I read, as long as your players stay on the bench, they don't count as a start, but if you swap them after a round they get they the start, so I guess if you stack studs on the bench you get a higher percentage to swap to a leader/someone doing good I guess
Putting top players on the bench is useful since it doesn't count as a start unless you put them in your lineup. You can put players in for the last two rounds that are in contention
I’ve played in a couple seasons of golf where the format is very similar with uses. I like putting on my bench the very solid golfers that are not studs, but I feel will make the cut. If you use studs on your bench, then you almost have to play them anyway. And honestly, it’s a waste to use them for half of a tournament.
Love the segments of you breaking down the holes by the screen. Great new feature!
Thanks Ryan
Glad Golf and Rick is back! Let's Go!

Yeah okay, very interesting. Makes more sense that way.
Love the new feature rick! Great stuff! Much better than sky sports golf analysis ( UK Golf Channel )! Keep up the great work!
Thanks so much!
Happy New Year and Welcome Back! Let's GOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Love your content!!! Let's start the season off good!!!!!$$$$$
Can you share Fantrax scoring for league setup?
Thank you for the explanation of the fantasy league I signed up but didn’t see any rules. I think your right in a no cut event put guys on your bench that you don’t plan on playing.
I'm in it Rick!! Played in it for quite a few years> Fun, I will challenge you!!
Good luck!
37:10 If it works like previous seasons, if a player stays benched the whole week will not lose a pick in the segment.
We are back baby!!!
Thoughts on Clark?
Good, not great with a highly volatile range of outcomes.
Wide open fairways? Should be a Clark course! Theegala too is due
The man with 9 toes! 😂 awesome
Love the content thanks rick! Glad to be at the start of the 2025 season
Yessir! This is going to be fun!

My man -- love seeing this username for long. It's crazy how time flies. Appreciate you.!
Is there a coupon code for the yearly sub?
No I don’t do any codes or coupons. I want to make sure all users (new and existing) get the same price.

Having trouble finding your league in the PGA public search-never mind. Found your link
Never played fantasy golf before but super interested in a season long thing with 10-12 leaguemates if that’s a thing.
Yeah it’s all pretty new. You can definitely get in a league like that, it would be a blast.

Yes, someone else mentioned this as well. Makes sense!
Is there no 2500 dollar one and done this year like there was last year?
Oh good call -- let me see what I can find.
I wonder what kind of bump Bob McIntyre gets compared to the field considering a game flaw of his is the driver's accuracy?
Yeah, might level it out a little bit.

Ahhhh -- that makes a lot more sense. Thanks for this.
Is Adam Scott a slow-burn good pick this week?
DK priced Morikawa at $10,100. Liking rostering Xander and Collin.
Yeah I think that's very reasonable now.
I will be there in person heckling my matchups
Been going for 2o years
Best tournament to get up close
I've only been to the Sony and it is so much fun. Would love to make it to the Sentry at some point -- enjoy!

Yeah, that makes sense. Thanks for sharing.
I think you only burn a start if they score points. If they stay on your bench they do not count as a start for the PGA game.
Oh interesting. I must have missed that in the rules.
feels like Mori wins a bunch this szn!
Preach!
We're back i the promise land,of betting golf I've missed it, them ,,,8 weeks of scrub betting weekly was tough
Make me some more money for 2025 you rock !
Let's do it, Keith!
