Accenture Match Play: Grading the Pickers, Round 2
Yesterday, Ron Sirak edged out Sal Johnson and Alan Shipnuck on picking the winners of the first round of the Accenture Match Play. Let’s take a look at their second round results. Note: Of the three, only Sal Johnson didn’t pick the later rounds in advance, so he’s got a clear advantage because his picks get reset every day. But, what the heck.
