Well this will be interesting, -12/-14 for -26 at the cut. Usually I'm pretty good at guessing the cut on Monday but I'm not sure I can do it this time. The short tees are definitely going to make this one interesting. I do believe my -26 is fine, but where does the cut land? My usual Monday math takes whatever's about the halfway mark through current participation, which is currently -11 at 31st out of 63, and double it so my guess would be -22, give or take a stroke. I don't know how confident I am in that..this feels like a unique tournament. 63 is kind of low for participation even for a Monday morning. I think the field count may be down this week, so you may not need top 50% to make the cut, 70th place may be top 60-70%. I'm going to pull back from the -11 by a stroke and a half and call the cut line at -19, give or take a stroke.
I was more confident in my -26 after shutting down my game yesterday than I am after loading up the scores just now. I'm glad to be safely in the cut but it's even more of a shootout than I would have thought. It'll take near perfect golf in 3/4 to get into the top 10 conversation and get back the mark I pissed away last week.

Started of with a -17 with one bogey haha. Made three eagles on a row on hole 9-11. Will be an interesting week this one. I saw that. Can't beat 3 eagles in a row. I've done that ONCE with them coming from a par 5, 3 & 4

So far, in statistics from hole to hole, eagle is possible in: 2 / 5 / 9 / 10 / 11 / 16
Can anybody get it? Hole 5 only two people ...
The wind is strong, right?

So this happened in practice, which means I'll shoot -6 or something in tournament. Even with this score I still missed three putts I felt I had a good shot of making and on #4 I actually plugged in the bunker. That is the problem with these types of "oopsie" setups. You can get ridonkulous scores.
Anyway, Alexandre this should answer your question about the eagleable holes. A better drive on #5 and I would have had a shot at it, just pulled the drive.

And exactly as predicted a -11. Tempo issues all over the place. Putted well and that is probably the only thing that saved the round from a full disaster but year 5 or 6 slow downswings with a couple fast swings tossed in just to mess with my mind cause I rarely ever get a fast downswing.

Well after 2 rounds I scored about like I do on other course I’m tougher conditions. I am going to assume I will miss the cut due to numbskullery...

I think since we're playing from the ladies tees, everyone should make sure their avatar is wearing a skirt. I'll be checking ghosts on PS4.

In Brazil we use the following expression: Training is training, game is game. In training, relaxed and without pressure, everything is easier, but in the game ... I did an excellent lap, but I started with a pair, and along the course I did a boogie and another pair. -20 would be easy to do. I saw the wind change direction in the middle of the shot. On the second lap, I will wait for the wind to stabilize (if possible). Some players were better on the second lap. I do not think that will be my case. And exactly as predicted a -11.

Once again I fell apart in the last round. Was sitting at -52 after 63 holes and felt like I had a shot at the win and a place in the top 10 secured. And directly I manage to make a TRIPLE BOGEY on the 10th (hated that hole, made eagle, bogey, bogey, triple) and couldn't recover after that. Will probably miss out on top 10 again ughhh...

I was actually saying recently it would be fun to play a total shootout tournament where they did front tees on an easy course. I had low winds in mind as well and maybe a slightly easier course to just make it completely over the top but this is still closer than I ever actually expected to see!
A few posts up I revised my usual Monday math to estimate -19 rather than -22 partially because -22 just sounded ridiculous...should have stuck with the original, unless there's extremely low participation over the next 2 days, -21 is out, -22 is in. Crazy numbers.

-12 for -23 after 2 which should be enough to be safely inside the cut line. Honestly all I care about this tournament is making the cut. This course might have been fun from the tips but in this form I just can't take it seriously. Now that I made the cut I'll speed golf the last two rounds and move on to next week.
Doyley should allow us to play Magnolia for penance!!!

Looking like -22 is safe. I can't imagine 10 others starting this tournament or finishing the second round.
