Well I totally pooped the bed in R4, I was thinking going into that final round that this was easily the best I've played since the patch and I thought finally, finally I'm coming back to form, but nope Putting was generally good but I missed a half-dozen 10-15ft putts that were not even remotely tricky, so even discounting the 4th round tee to green meltdown I should have hit the -50 mark. Oh well. Good luck all, I expect some seriously ridiculous scores at the top this week!

-52. Maybe good enough for a top 10. Green speeds were slowed down for every round which I don't think they should of been given how big these greens are.

Was just coming on to say how ridiculously low the scoring is going to be this week - would expect at least -60 required to win. I played terrible for the first two rounds: -10 and -12 the result, which will I suspect JUST be good enough to make the cut. Threw in 2 VF downswings in R1, 2 VS downswings in R2, resulting in two visits to water, two bogeys, a 1-putt par at the par 4.1 15th hole (would actually suspect it will be lower than that!) Add to that the inability to hit anything but slow downswings (eventually aimed miles left every shot on the back 9 in R2 to compensate!) And most impressive of all is standing on the 18th tee mountain (I cannot in all seriousness call it a tee box when sloped at that angle) - and look up to see the waypoint in the middle of the lake, and the default club as a LW flop. Just stunning QA from HB right there (shakes head in disbelief at their incompetence) Good luck all. PS: Andrew - greens were default (153) in R1, and fast (163) in R2 so far (Edit: and same (163) in R3) - so not quite sure what course you played 187 is NOT default here clearly (as 153 is not possible to manually set)

As did the what’s going on vid?

Does it? I never ever look at it. If it does say default - then it's not true that it is default each round.
R1 in game showed as Med-Fast, then R2/3/4 show as fast (in the preview I mean)
Another meh -11 in R3 for me btw - a couple of nice eagles (3 and 17) but otherwise exceedingly average.

Weather reports appear to be exceedingly pointless then

I had 153-153-153-163 greens.
My first round was good and my overall score isn't embarrassing but I didn't play well. I probably made 15-20 putts over 20 feet and could only manage -52. It feels like a wasted opportunity, especially round 3 where I had almost no wind and couldn't hit wedges inside of 15 feet. Could easily see someone shooting something like -65 or better here.

Oh - and HB forgot to feed the hamsters last night - they've gone on strike in powering the server today - numberous disconnects during each round. Hasn't happened for several weeks now - but back with a vengeance today.

Yeah - more down to putting than anything else this week - pretty much no trouble tee to green, so just put it below the hole and it's easy. Get the wrong side of the holes and there are some big curlers... -11 in R4 for me - at least I was consistent through 72 holes this week, rather than chopping it in the final round. -44 in total, so will be last of three PC players when Brad (Gemini) finishes his final round. I know my rightful place - back safely in it around 40-50th position..... yet again
I can take a positive from the week - holed out a trap in R4, so got the 'Golden Ferret' in-game achievement - wooo!!!!

Just an average tourney for me. Front 9 killed me all 4 rounds. 3/4 of my scoring was on the back. Just couldn’t dial in the roll and every putt was 15-20ft it seems. Made some and missed some. Water ball in R4. Just my typical day. -11,-11,-12,-12. -46. Good luck

Just poor play the 1st 2 rounds. -10 then a -9 with a bogey on the driveable Par 4 17th hole in round 2. Just abysmal. Thinking won't be enough for the cut at this venue.

Weather reports appear to be exceedingly pointless then I'll have to double check the sheets are working properly whe I get back from the states - we've had some manual additions/removals that may have inadvertently adjusted some formulas.
