Giving myself a chance here! Shot a 65 third round. Sitting at -13 now. Got an eagle on 16 from distance! Still have work to do if I want to stay up here though. My second round weighs heavy. Lol Well done, I'm just the one behind you on -12. I had an up and down start and wasn't tempted to go for the green on the short par 4. I got a few birdies on the board then ruined it with a double bogey. I was aiming for a final score of -20, so doesn't look likely just now. We'll just have to see if we can raise our game on the last round, keep the faith. Thanks bud! Hopefully we both can get where we need to be!

Rd 2 saw another -7 65. bogey on the last soured the score, but this is a tough track so I am pleased.
-14 at the halfway point, currently inside the top 30. Gotta keep this up!
Onward!!

Monster round of 61 for Round 3, but I’ll need to go at least -8 in final round to have a hope of getting my A card. Big ask...

Watch out for that back pin on 15 in round 4. I was coming off a 60 of my own in round 3 and was having a decent if unspectacular 4th round when I got there. I hit a perfect 4 hybrid that just got to the top of the ridge where the hole was, but then came back all the way down to the front of the green leaving me about 70 feet, 3 ft. uphill. I would have been happy with three putts from there. Unfortunately a four putt double bogey ensued. To add insult to injury, I stuck my approach on 18 to 5 feet, but was 3 inches above the hole with a savage left to right break and 3 putted despite being extra cautious with the first putt. That was frustrating. Don't be above the hole kids! Monster round of 61 for Round 3, but I’ll need to go at least -8 in final round to have a hope of getting my A card. Big ask...

Well I listened about that 15th green. Glad I did too BUT!! My putt came up just light at the top of the ridge and slid way back down and ended up with my only bogie of the round. So not bad! Thanks for the tip! Anyways final round 65 for a tournament finish of -20. I hope to God it’s enough to clear the line. If it isn’t, I have only myself and that terrible second round 72 to blame for it. Good luck everyone!

I think you'll be alright, I reckon -16 will be just above the halfway mark.

I went 62-72-68-68 for -18 which is pretty frustrating considering my first round. This course is only as hard as you make it for yourself, and there are some really tight and just legal pins out there. The 15th is one of those not really fair pins. Such a small area and you're hitting in there with a long iron or hybrid which won't stop. I four-putted from 20 feet (2 feet below the hole). Aside from that, it's a great course.
Don't know if -18 is good enough for no strike on A, but we'll see I guess.

Finished level with you, Violinguy69. It was feast or famine out there. Not enough feast, and too much famine: 69-70-61-70 for -18. Doubt very much if I’m gonna stick in A with that score.

Forgot that that’s the excepmtion line! Lol I feel much better now!

Round 3 was the easiest round yet in this weeks tourney. Wind was never really an issue. Could this be my 3rd exemption into CC=A. every other week? Have to be on my toes in round 4 no mistakes.
I can GET to CC-A - I just can't STAY in CC=A -21 after 3 rounds

Correlating "in-game" standings with TGCTours standings. Has anybody looked into this? For instance. After round 3 I was in something like 78th place and on the cut line for exemption. After a disappointing round 4 I was in 62nd place. This gives me hope that everybody else had issues with #15 (I didn't).
I assume the in-game standings are ONLY for PS4 players but since I did move up with 300 players . . . . .

Safe to say I'm happy with my final round of 63. Started of with a birdie then got a run of 3 through holes 4-6 and another on the 8th. Back 9 began with 2 birdies then 2 bogies then went 4 in a row on the last 4 holes. I think I'll be staying up in CC-C for at least another 3 weeks.
Thankfully I hit the pin on the 11th with a pitch shot or I'd be off the green. But I was cursing the roll on the green on the 12th as the ball took an age to stop and I was left with 2ft downhill and 40-odd ft from the pin.

So after three 65s to open, I choked in rd 4 with a bogey-riddled 69. -24 should help me earn my B card, but sure would have been nice to keep the good play going.
