'Dawgs, The Road Dawgs' 2013 season is officially in the books with our last event at Morongo/Tukwet Canyon finalizing the Top Dawg playoff seedings. The seedings came down to the wire this year with four players tied for the final two playoff spots and another four within two points of qualifying. The tiebreakers (as outlined here: http://www.road-dawgs.org/pub_static/top_dawg_2013) are 1) participation points, 2) Ryder Cup points and 3) Coin flip. The first tiebreaker got Melniker and Myape into the field over Mohler and Trundy. The second tiebreaker put Myape as the 11th seed and Melniker as the 12th. Here's how the top of the field worked out: Seed Last First Total Participation Ryder Cup 1 Postel Paul 43 16 14 2 Waddell Reed 41 18 8 3 Maretsky Marc 41 16 13 4 Myers Richard 39 16 9 5 Newport Bob 38 18 8 6 Esperti Trent 37 18 8 7 Schnetter Ulrich 37 12 15 8 Vannukul Victor 36 18 8 9 Allen Mark 35 16 12 10 Skoller Ron 35 14 12 11 Myape Robert 34 16 10 12 Melniker Rick 34 16 8 13 Trundy Sean 34 14 12 14 Mohler Tom 34 14 10 15 Thomas Danny 33 12 12 16 Booker Bob 33 12 11 17 Jacalone Mark 33 10 14 18 Rafferty Phil 32 14 16 First round match-ups are: (8) Vannukul vs (9) Allen (5) Newport vs (12) Melniker (6) Esperti vs (11) Myape (7) Schnetter vs (10) Skoller You can see the entire bracket at http://www-road-dawgs.org under the "Top Dawg!" section click "Click to view complete Playoff Bracket".
