Good luck Ashton!
I'm going to get my same desire of only versing masters players, but i think it's going to be " careful what you wish for!"
Iron sharpens iron, my friend. CC-A is Pro clubs purgatory and I'm ready to move on from it. I've played some Web events over the last month and I love the challenge and I feel like I could at least flirt with making the cut (I hear the cut is a fickle lass and when you make her it feels sooooo good but when she rips your heart out it stings baaaad) Having just promoted to Web during the last promo event I can attest it's a lot harder than i anticipated. I too played a lot of Web events for fun and it seemed i was always at least making the cut but then when i was there for good i am making it about 50% of the time. I got my first top 10 last week and followed it up by a missed cut...it's a fun challenge for sure.

Finished up round four. A couple off tempo shots I got a way with and a couple I didn't. No bogeys, tho I probably deserved at least one. Missed a 5 foot putt that sux but played solidly down the stretch in the 16-18mph winds. -9 to finish -46 overall. With 20 getting in, I am going to cautiously say that I did enough to move on...finally, hopefully. My luck 15 people under me shoot -14 final rounds. GL all.

After finishing my TGC2 career on Euro, I have continually disappointed myself in this game. Q-School put me all the way down in CC-E. Played horrible there for several weeks and nearly went to F. Then I grinded out some quality finishes and got some top 20s. Promo event 2 brought me up to CC-C. Haven't had any strikes but haven't had any checkmarks either, but I've played solid and felt my game was coming around going in... R1 I had so many missed chances, shot -8 but at that point I was a little worried. R2 was the same story, another -8 with lackluster play in terms of making birdies. I felt that I had blew it honestly. R3 I knew I had to go low when I saw the conditions, and man it finally came together. 9 birds and 2 eagles, including one on the last for 59! -13. I knew I was back in it and could maybe snag a pro card. And then I saw R4 have High winds and I got worried...never been a good wind player. Get a very fast approach on 1, 25 yards left of the green...flop it in for bird! many fistpumps were had there Really kept my composure well in the tough conditions and considering the circumstances, got it to -9 coming to 18. Thought I hit a perfect shot, comes up a ft short and goes in the water. I was pisssssssssssssed...and somehow I found the courage to hit the 90 yd wedge to a tap-in par. I finished -38 and hopefully will be back all the way to Euro. It's crazy to think how frustrated and low I was and now see how I'm competing with top guys again. Only my 2nd ever bogey-free tournament, my first one being a month or so ago...and that's with over 2 yrs on TGCT. Sorry for the rant, but I am happy if you couldn't tell lol There's my rounds if you want to see them, looking forward to seeing you guys on the Pro Tours!

Think you and I could end up on the same tour! I started with a -5 and was so frustrated. I did q school when the last promo event happened, so literally THE worst timing to sign up! Been waiting for this event for weeks! And been in good form, getting green marks recently in CC-C. Then went -12 and -14 in rounds 2 and 3! Round 4 was tough with the winds for sure, but I'm good in the wind and should've done much better than -6, but a -37 score is one I should be happy with. I want to be in web tour to be honest, euro looks pretty brutal! Might see you soon

Cut line watch! Still the best part of a day and I'm sure a few more scores to come in. For players tied on the cut line score tiebreaks will be on effect. Cut lines as at 12pm Saturday BST: PGA -40 Euro -36 Web -29 CCA -28 That Web line certainly shot up! Bad luck Ashton Fox but you'll be there soon enough. Hopefully I can join you!

-20 good enough for CC-Pro? Looks like it might be, but might need a PhD in math to figure it out for sure lol

Any idea when the final promotions will be posted? Probably tomorrow late evening or Monday. There will be projections like PGA's cut looks to be -41 or -42. There are 24 players at -41 or better. Two of those are Pro clubs so that is 22 people. One of those people has one round to play and is currently at -41 so he will move up. So if no one else moves up there, there'd be two people at -41 going to the tie breaker. But there are lots to play their final round or two. So I could see the actual cut for the PGA going up to -43 or even -44 (maybe).\
I'm sure we'll get a more in depth list as the day progresses.

Wow I hope Andi and a few others waiting to finish their final round gets them in. They are so close. Andi just needs a round of -3 or so to make it to the PGA.

I am currently on the CC-A flight. Wanted to at least get to the web, then I came and looked and I am one stroke ahead of the cut line for the Euro... hope my -37 holds up to make it to the Euro tour. Wasn't the number of slots available for the 3 pro tours posted on this thread? I can't find it. After the tournament closes, I figure if I had the total number of slots available I could figure out where i landed, unless I land right on the cutoff with a dozen folks.
GL Everyone, BobbyB900
