Here are the results from last week’s contest for the Memorial Tournament presented by Nationwide.

Steemit Scramble Results – the Memorial Tournament

Jason Dufner won the tournament in Dublin, Ohio this past weekend with a score of -13, beating out both Anirban Lahiri and Rickie Fowler by three strokes. This was Dufner’s first victory of the 2017 season and only his second top-10 finish. With this victory, Dufner has moved into 13th place on the FedEx Cup leaderboard. These are the results of this week’s *Steemit Scramble:*
Place | Contestant | Points --- | --- | --- 1st | @moonie | 18 2nd | @liberty-minded | 17 2nd | @sevinwilson | 17
The *2x multiplier* was the number of birdies by Phil Mickelson for the duration of the tournament, which was **17**. The closest to that total was @liberty-minded, who guessed **16**. So, @liberty-minded was able to double his golfer points for the week from 6 to 12, and also received the 5-point bonus for having a unique golfer combination. The total pot for the weekly contest was **86 SBD.** The 1st place contestant received **43 SBD**, and the 2nd place contestants each received **21.5 SBD.** Here is the [proof of payout](https://steemit.com/@ats-david/transfers):
