Caption game is back - but with a difference. There will still be pictures and players need to come up with a caption to go with the picture.
However, this time there is a slight difference - the pictures will represent golf holes (St Andrew's Old Course) and scoring will be by means of golf scores.
The aim is to get the lowest score for the round of 18 holes.
Scoring will be sensible - in that there's noway on earth anyone will hit a hole in one on a par 5 or par 4 for that matter (not even Gresley using his height to full advantage). All entries will be marked on merit and if on a hole all entries are above average then birdies will be the score (exceptional entries could warrant an eagle). Below average entries, or captions that I don't find amusing will score bogey or worse.
A non-entry for a hole will result in a score of 10 for that hole (assumes lost balls, penalty shots etc.)
Be sure to read the narrative with each hole as these detail the difficulty of the hole and hence the likely scores to be awarded. So for that matter does the par of that hole and the yardage to a degree!
The Tournament will be played over 3 weeks - with 6 holes being posted each Sunday. The winner will be the one with the lowest score and in the event of a tie for 1st place a four hole play-off will be posted. This will be played using the existing pictures for holes 2, 9, 13 and 15.
Karma prizes will be awarded to all entrants - commensurate with a tournament of this magnitude.
So without further ado, polish those irons and ready those woods and make your way to the 1st tee!
Best of luck!!! ;D
