Onto the Winners now and first to the PGA9:
12 different winners this season (1 week was a tie) with Mmmduff1 and Domino the 2 players managing to win 2 times:
The PGA18 was 11 different winners with one week having a tie, so spread about again. This event saw richbro01 (ELO ranked no1 at the start of the season), Gotallofthatone and Sandybunker all end with 2 victories each.
Stableford wins were less spread around with only 5 different winners this Season and it was that man Domino top of the pile with 4 victories.
The Open had a different winner for each month:
JoeBradley
Sandybunker
richybro01
What this all meant was that Domino was the most successful player this Season, with 6 victories with 19 different players managing at least 1 event win.
For some, winning might be out of reach, but a podium finish is still a very good finish with a lot of good players around. 44 players managed this out of 158 participants, so over a quarter managed a top 3!
Top of the pile and having had a good season were Gotallofthatone and Domino with 11 podiums each. Here's the full table, did you manage to sneak on?

Affo has replaced richybro01 at the top and holds a 17 point advantage over Domino whos impressive season seeing him move
from 6th to 2nd. ergo76prop jumps from 21st to 3rd and as mentioned before, DoGgs was another big mover into the top 10. Robbiet71 is our highest new entry into 9th place with bobfletch new at 13th and Milehigh the other newcomer in at 20th. Gotallofthatone's good season got him up into 8th at one point but a dip in form saw him slip back to 18th.
Spring 17 to come next....
