Brian Edwards Wins 2018 NFFC Draft Champions & $22,000

Post by Greg Ambrosius » Wed Dec 26, 2018 11:45 am

Brian Edwards of Washington D.C. took only one team in the NFFC Draft Champions National Championship and turned that $150 entry into $22,800. Brian won his August 2nd 4-Hour Draft Champions League title for $800 and he won the overall title for another $22,000. Brian edged Michael Horn by 21.65 points for the overall title.

Brian becomes the 8th different national champion in the nine years of the NFFC Draft Champions National Championship. This best ball contest continues to get more popular each year and in 2018 there were 1,680 teams. Michael Horn won $5,000 for finishing second and Mark Srebro won $3,500 for finishing third. Srebro had four teams in the Top 10 as we paid the Top 10 teams overall and he had six teams in the Top 13.

Great job everyone. Here's the final standings with the Top 100 teams:

Not sure you can script a much better start than this from the 9 hole. Juju in the 5th was insane value.
