Conquer The42's annual US Masters tipping contest and win Irish Open tickets

Next at the tee from Ireland… The42 commenters.

SO YOU THINK you know your golf? Here’s your chance to prove it and win ‘season tickets’ for the Irish Open at the K Club this summer, which allow you access to the action on every day of the tournament. All you need to do is pick a winning team of three players for this week’s US Masters at Augusta. To enter, post your team in the comments section before the deadline of 12pm sharp on Thursday, 7 April. Entry is free but limited to one per reader/Twitter account. The winner will get the tickets and we’ll throw in the much-loved, rarely-seen The42 hoodies for two runners-up. Still interested? Here’s how it works:

  • Pick 3 players from the list below. The sum total of your three players’ odds must be at least 150/1.
  • For example: Henrik Stenson 25-1, Patrick Reed 35-1,  Matt Kuchar 66-1 = 126.
  • The person whose team has the lowest combined score at the end of the tournament is the winner.
  • Importantly… if any of your three players do not make the 36-hole cut, you are eliminated from the competition. All three players must finish the tournament for your team score to be valid.
  • If your player does not make the first tee, you will be given an alternative player at those odds (or the next highest) in alphabetical order. Once that player tees off, he is part of your team for the duration of the tournament.
  • In the event of a tie, winners will be drawn at random.

Here are your  odds:

  • Jason Day 6.5/1
