Round 4
The Mahan/Woods final round battle was not much of a battle at all and Dutch Roll runs away in round 4 to win the first SLS Cup Playoff. 18 Hoes put up a galiant fight through three rounds, but alas Tiger is Tiger and the #1 seed through the regular season and #1 on the 07 Money List puts the caps on a dominating Rotoff season.
(And I thought it wouldn’t be a Tiger dominated league. This will be somewhat corrected next season when we go from a snake draft format to an auction. Even still the team with the best player is typically the best team, no matter the sport)
Gonzalez caps off a great season by winning the consolation bracket with a total score of -37, setting the course record, and a score that would have topped Dutch Roll had he been able to sneak past 18 Hoes in the semis. All in all the seeds through the regular season held up in the playoffs.
