So does anyone know if Anthony Bellucci is on the forums. I really wanted to reach out to him and tell him he shot a heck of a tournament. He's been around a long time but I don't think I have ever seen him post. Oh man that bogey on 17th.. that is hard

He's been around a long time but I don't think I have ever seen him post. Oh man that bogey on 17th.. that is hard Yeah I don't know if he was scoreboard watching at that point or not. I would have been. At that point he needed two birdies outright to take the lead or a birdie on 17 and a par on 18 to tie and win in a count back. A par, birdie finish would have given me the count bank win as he pared the 14th. He three putted so I don't know what happened but I would have definitely tried a risky shot at that point. He played two great rounds in 2 and 3. I wish he was on the boards cause he deserves some kudos.

Congratulations Ron Duncan (Brighttail) !! When I did not have a chance, I wanted you to win! We have been together in the game since 2014 (all versions) and using the PC. I left the mouse on the last version because I did not find a setting. I learned to use a control from Xbox to PC, but you fought with the mouse. On the PC the balance is very difficult! I started this tournament using a PS4 (my 50th birthday present). Much easier to swing. You have all the merit to win. His difficulty is much greater. Congratulations!!! Obs. I think we're going back to the PGA!

I started this tournament using a PS4 (my 50th birthday present). Much easier to swing. You have all the merit to win. His difficulty is much greater. Congratulations!!! Obs. I think we're going back to the PGA! Okay it looks like everyone within striking distance has finished. First off thank you to those who have contacted me in PMs, on the forums and the chat in Steam to offer your congratulations. Thanks you to all from the bottom of my heart. Thank you to the special and touching comment from Alexandre. Yes we have gone back many years playing this game. I know you struggled with your mouse and believe me had my right thumb been butchered by a few operations, I probably would have joined you long ago. Simply put, the game is s far easier to play with a controller than a mouse.
One of the main abilities controller players have is consistently being able to play the shots that give bonus yards. When you play a p/p in a tail win and yet end up 50 yards behind someone hit a F/F I just have to shake my head. I have tried many, many hours to replicate it effectively and have failed miserably. About the only two shots I can do with some semblance of consistency is P/F and a 95% p/p shot. Watching larry controlling his distance using Fast back swings is like wow..... In general it is easier to flick the levers of a controller to accomplish these shots. Hats off to them.
This week it was about putting. Two or three times it saved my bacon with 20+feet par puts and a chip in for birdie. Round 1 was a special round, zero eagles and 15 birdies with a 56% long putting range. I was on. In the end, 4 rounds, 3 with 22 putts and the final with 21 putts, with a difference in 5 shots gained/lost aan all these holds was the difference. I'm excited an honored to have been able put together my second win of the seasons, to go with my 2nd place finish and two other top 10s.
This time need to keep the train a riling and no burning promotion makes. Special kudos to Tony to pushing me down to the final two holes and Charles pushing me all tourney long. Congrats also to the top 10. Hopefully this round I won't piss away the marks.
See you next week.

Congrats Ron, tho the walk off music was played halfway through your acceptance speech, you showed the same grit and determination to ignore it as you did in this weeks tournie. Gratz to the top tenners too.
