Title: Of course there was going to be another one.
Post by: Highlander on June 30, 2014, 20:57:32 PM: The British Golf Opening takes place next month which is enough of a reason for me to try another sweepstake

I have randomly allocated the numbers 1 – 32 to the top 32 golfers with the bookies. You choice a number and you get the golfer who has that number. When all 32 have been taken I will reveal who your golfer is.

I thought a fiver per golfer wasn't too much.

Member who has the winning golfer wins £ 20.00.

Be warned though, if all 32 go quickly I will think of some other ruse to have you part with your money. ;).
