CONTEST Live Update Thread – The 2024 WorldWide Golf Championship

[JB]

Thursday evening (the 18th) we kick off the 2024 WorldWide Golf Championship where eight 2-man teams battle it out at beautiful Briggs Ranch Golf Club. Playing alongside WorldWide Golf, teams of THPers are ready to share the entire experience with you.

The Prize
Just because you are not at Briggs Ranch with us does not mean you can’t win from the 2024 WorldWide Golf Championship. The lucky prediction winner will receive a THP Mystery Box, including a piece or two hand selected just like the stuff each participant is receiving. This is one contest you will want to enter and follow along to see how you did.

Several teams to root for here. I've played with 3 of these guys, and they are good. I'd love for @Nerdy or @KY Golfer to win. But, I watched @jdtox carry me to a win in round 1 of the MC, and him with a post Fresca @JB is a scary combo. Going to have to pick When Worlds Collide.

I should know better than to pick against JB. But I'm predicting without clenching he could be a bit off his game.

So I'm going with Southern Twang just getting the job done.
