How did you fare this year?

We look back on this year's Fantasy Golf stats, including top points scorer from each region plus the final top 5 teams.

Fantasy Golf season round-up

It's been an up and down year for golf. Tears, triumph, good decisions and catastrophic errors...and that's just in your Fantasy teams!

Jordan Spieth, Jason Day and Zach Johnson all earned big points thanks to their major wins, with Rory McIlroy taking 607 points for his win at the DP World Tour Championship.

There were rewards for those who backed outsiders like Soren Kjeldsen and Thomas Pieters. Both were winners on the European Tour this year, with Pieters triumphing at the KLM Open and Czech Masters.

Below we'll take a look at the highest point-scoring golfers as well as the best Fantasy teams of the year...
