The Opening Playoff Format Of The Internet Invite Episode 5 Was Everything You Could Have Dreamed Of

Spoilers ahead - The last we left off, Dave Portnoy decided a twist no one saw coming was the perfect addition to The tournament. The White team advanced over The Green team, and when everyone thought the day was done ... 

Giphy Images.

The White team broke into 4 captains, teams of four and went into a draft  (only for that night) where the lowest score and ties were safe, but the worst score was eliminated. If everyone if Group 1 had the same score, it moves onto Group 2, then 3, then back to 1. 

Big John delivered (like he always does) with a monster putt to keep his team safe. 

It then came down Jake Adams in Group 2, and it's safe to say the pressure was mounting, and may have gotten to him. Just look at his arms …

But the reason things were so perfect and why this tournament is awesome, is it came down to Ryan Whitney in group 2 which was basically a faceoff between him and Dave, more than him and Jake Adams. 

Which if you know these two, is exactly what you want. Just two guys who absolutely define a love/hate relationship to a tee. 

Absolutely perfect playing out of a playoff situation with the fate of the team in Ryan Whitney's hands, and boy did he deliver.

It's nice to see the little guys win one just once. 

Perfectly awesome ending/drama to the playoff part format, and that was just the first 15/20 minutes. The Internet Invitational has been fantastic and I cannot wait to see it play out … go watch.
