2012 Grand Slam Challenge: The British Open

It's time for the third round of the 2012 IMS Grand Slam Challenge. The British Open will be held July 19-22 at Royal Lytham & St. Annes Golf Club, located in northwest England. Same rules as usual. Here are the basics: Pick six of the golfers from the list below (note that this list is the current field according to Yahoo -- scratches and additions may occur, so make sure that your entry is not affected before the deadline). Points must add up to at 400 or higher. Scoring is determined by the best four of your selections who make the cut. Top 20 plus ties receive Grand Slam points. Ties for first place only will be broken by highest point total (of the six selections).
Enter your selections in a post no later than 1:00 AM EDT on Wednesday night / Thursday morning. Entries or changes made after the deadline will not be accepted. Enter your golfers' names exactly as they are entered below. This simple task makes the compilation of the spreadsheet much easier.
If you change your entry, please note in a new post that you are doing so and then list your new entry. Preferably, also edit your previous entry and blank it out. I'll let you know in the thread and/or via PM if you need to change your entry for any reason (not enough points, invalid golfers, etc.) provided that the entry is made prior to the deadline stated above. Please note for others and myself if any of the golfers on the list have withdrawn.
Here is an example of a proper entry:
Paul Casey
Greg Chalmers
K.J. Choi
Daniel Chopra
Stewart Cink
Tim Clark
JJTerpNY is the reigning Open champion, ConGOTERPS is the reigning Grand Slam Challenge champion and feartheturtle02 is the current 2012 leader. Good luck to all!

Yes. I'm guessing he replaced someone who withdrew. I'll update it periodically, but anyone not in the above list who is in the field is 150.

It's updated now. Apparently, Jeev Singh and Troy Matteson were not in yesterday's listing.

Are Bubba Watson and Tom Watson switched? I'd be shocked if Bubba was really 150 and Tom is really 40.
