The Total Earnings category was won by the Tour Outsider.

The Avg Rank category was won by the Tour Outsider.

The Made Cut category was a draw.

The tournament overall was won by the Tour Outsider.

The overall results between the Tour Outsider and the Tour Insider is 8 wins to the Tour Outsider, 8 wins to the Tour Insider, and 2 draws.

Somehow I squeaked out a win this week even though I had 3 players that missed the cut (i.e. more players missed the cut than made the cut in my picks).  However, Bolton also had 3 players miss the cut.  Both of us had average rankings above the cut line.  It was Streelman placing well, along with Jobe finishing closer to the cut line (even though he missed the cut), that made the difference.  Not pretty.  But I will take it; a win is a win.  this draws me even with Bolton for the year with 8 wins each.
