Four tournaments down, just 49 to go, meaning Geraldine Morris of Limerick has only another 27 weeks to hang on to her top two positions on the overall leaderboard to collect a total prize of £18,000. If you say it quickly enough it really does sound easy.

Geraldine's unnamed line-ups were the first to pass the £500,000 earning mark at the weekend, largely through the efforts of the only three players common to both teams - Rolf Muntz, Paul McGinley and Jose Coceres. Muntz earned his 184 managers £100,000 after winning the Qatar Masters, his first European Tour victory - not a bad return for a £700,000 investment.

Coceres added a joint-seventh finish in Qatar to his week-one win at the Dubai Desert Classic, leaving him second only to Jim Furyk as our top earner after the first two weeks of the competition. McGinley isn't too far behind, tying with Coceres and two others in Qatar and finishing runner-up to the Argentinean in Dubai. Small wonder, then, that Geraldine has got off to a flyer - she also has Miguel Angel Martin, who took a share of fifth in Qatar, in her first placed team.

If we had double vision looking at the top of the overall leaderboard we had a similar experience browsing through the results from Qatar, where Per Nyman finished joint 19th AND missed the cut. Yes, there are two Per Nymans (a pair of Pers, you might say), one of whom is on our Golf Masters' list, the other of whom isn't.

So, just in case any of the 139 managers of OUR Nyman are confused, your fella made the cut, Per G Nyman, as the man yet to secure his Golf Masters' card is known, didn't.

According to his PGA biography our Nyman is an avid collector of tees and, hence, is known to his friends as "Peggen", the Swedish word for tee. So if you happen to find yourself at a European tournament and you spot two Per Nymans and want to know which is the Golf Masters' player just shout "Peggen!" - whoever looks up is your man. (Per G played as an ice hockey goal minder until two years ago so he's probably heavily scarred).

Speaking of confusion over names - The Lusty Busties? Unfortunately we were unable to contact the manager of this wonderfully named outfit to discover the inspiration behind their christening or if the name referred directly to Muntz, Ian Woosnam (second in Qatar), McGinley, Barry Lane or Stephen Ames, the five players who contributed the bulk of The Lusty Busties' £257,479 team total at the weekend.

Those earnings were enough to lift the team to top of the weekly leaderboard and win their manager, Marian Corrigan, a fourball in Tulfarris, Co Wicklow, a stone's throw from her home in Bray.

So, to this week's tournaments, the Madeira Island Open and the Bay Hill Invitational. During the week we read an article entitled What is Tiger worth?. "About $150 million," replied his father, Earl Woods. Well, we gave him a slightly more modest value this year, charging his prospective managers £5.5 million for his services - 3,680 took up the offer, but last week four fired him, perhaps out of frustration because he had opted to skip the Doral Ryder Open and last weekend's Honda Classic.

If you are one of those four please look away now: Woods is back in action this week at the Bay Hill Invitational in Florida, for the first time since losing to Darren Clarke at the Andersen Consulting Match Play Championship.

Clarke and Padraig Harrington are also in the Bay Hill field while Pedro Linhart, yet to open his Golf Masters' account, defends his Madeira Island Open title this week.
