2009 LPGA Prognostication Derby Results: Photo Finish

by The Constructivist on Jan 7, 2010 2:11 AM PST

I feel like Santa, making lists and checking them twice. My latest sees how the gang who participated in the 2009 LPGA Prognostication Derby made out. Here are the final results from the 2008 Derby:

1st Mulligan Stu (646)
2nd Hound Dog (604)
3rd The Constructivist (569)
4th Bill Jempty (529)
5th Ron Sirak (518)

Was Mulligan Stu able to defend his title?

1st: Hound Dog (621)
2nd: Ron Sirak (613)
3rd: Ryan Ballengee (609)
4th: The Constructivist (596)
5th: Mulligan Stu (533)
6th: Bill Jempty (516)
7th: Jamie Saengsawang (489)

Congrats to Hound Dog for becoming the 2nd winner of the coveted Mostly Harmless Best LPGA Predictor in 2009 award!

Sirak second?

I’m not sure which result I’m more surprised by – me first or Sirak second?

or how close it was!

I’m not at all surprised you won, but the fact that it really came down to the wire between 3 of us (4 if you’re generous with my picking!) is pretty amazing.

Did Sirak knowingly participate, or are you taking what he’s written elsewhere?

Truth has a well-known liberal bias.

good question

I don’t know if he knows about the competition. He does a top 30 predictions list every year, so I use that.
