Started the third round even through 7 with a missed birdie from 10 feet and a 3-putt bogey from 9 feet on my way to a disappointing 66. Didn't hit the ball particularly well, putting was actually fine outside of those two holes. Fourth round I birdied the first like I did in the third, then had an inexplicable fast downswing into the bunker on 2 like I did in the third, though this time I missed the par putt. Birdied 3 and 4, bogeyed 5, birdied 6. Had 3 birdies and 3 pars over the next 6 before bogeying 13 by leaving a chip short. Eagled 15, lipped out for birdie on 16, bogeyed 17 from the preposterous bunker, missed the eagle on 18 by inches, finished with a 65.
Another middle of the pack finish for me, I've made the cut in 6 of the last 8 events but my highest finish is T27.

Wow! Curtis ahead so far with a three way tie for first in a count back to hole #14!!
Considering I shot like crap the first two rounds and snuck into the weekend, I'll take a top 20.

I was just looking at that and trying to check on the rules for a 3 way count back. I assume that CJ drops out of the tiebreak after looking at hole 18 (he hadd birdie), as Roddy and I both had eagle but I'm not 100% sure that's the way it works. If it does, I should hang on. Got my suit pressed just in case

Got my suit pressed just in case Yeah you count back by the last hole #18. 2 eagles and one bird. Bird is eliminated and you go to hole 17, then 16, 15, ect #14 was the difference.
Buuuuuuut....Lee Church said, "to heck with all that tie breaker shite!!" Nice score to lead by 2. There are a couple with a mathematical chance but it is pretty much over at this point.

Anyone know WHAT version of Pebble Beach we are playing? There are two Pebble Beach, one Pebble Beach GC. I'm assuming we aren't playing Boomers.

Thank you gents, including the jerk comment hahaha more of a miracle than it appeared. 2 lengthy and bendy par putts made to stay alive in that back 9 and a dream finish, birdied 15 thru 17 and eagled 18. I felt fortunate to be left with a string of approach shots that lined up perfectly with a default club distance there at the end, and somehow despite knowing exactly where I stood in the tournament my tempo and swingline held steady. I think I said earlier in this thread I like the slow greens, most don’t, so if there was a week to do it this was it! If one of those guys down in the teens thru 2 rounds can put up a late ~-30 for their final 2 then I tip my cap to them but it looks like it’ll hold. Well played gents.
