Jerry Sampson nearly won the Golf Majors contest. A massive 250.3 at The Open drove his portfolio to 645.4; Sampson took 2nd and 250 placement points. A 4-of-5 NBA card had already tied for 5th, while NFL Survivor added a share of 20th.
Those highs rose from a card with almost no middle. Baseball finished 223rd and NCAAF tied for 204th. The College Football Playoff was worse at a shared 237th. Three premium reads shared space with three bottom-quarter misses.
The majors did not polish a steady season. They hauled Sampson up 37 places; his 1298.5 points left him 115th, anchored by a result too large to ignore.
