The Total Earnings category was won by the Tour Outsider.

The Avg Rank category was won by the Tour Insider.

The Made Cut category was won by the Tour Insider.

The tournament overall was won by the Tour Insider.

The overall results between the Tour Outsider and the Tour Insider is 12 wins to the Tour Outsider, 9 wins to the Tour Insider, and 2 draws.

I had 3 players in the top 5, with one of them being a winner (Johnson).  Bolton had two players in the top 4, and one of them being a winner (Johnson, as well).  Usually that would have given me a win.  However, my 5th pick, Davis, decided to withdraw --- ugh!!! All Davis had to do was place 87th or better and I would have had a better average rank than Bolton.  But no, Davis had to withdraw, which put him at the bottom of the pack (123rd).  The result: a loss this week for me.
