My swing struggles continue...
-7,-8,-6,-9 =-30
Coin flip if I make the cut at -15, definitely no promotion marks this week.
Good luck everyone 😎

Missed a 9 foot birdie on 2, a 7 foot par on 4, and an 11 foot par on 6. Didn't make a birdie until 7 at which point I think I'd already played my way out of contention and was just scrambling to make another cut and move on to next week. Ended up getting back to -3 for the first round.
So after going +2 through 6 in the first round I was a full 6 shots better at -4 through 6 in the second round. Was -8 through 14 and I hit it a couple inches left of the cart path on 15, which is of course OB, so whoever owns that house over there can take my ball and shove it up their ass. Ended up with a double bogey. Birdied 17 by sinking a chip, then had a lousy chip on 18 and missed an 11 foot par, to finish at -6, -9 for the tournament.

Holly Tempo Batman!!! -3 rd 1. I was 50% GIR and only 70 something FW's. This game is like a nightmare....It just keeps getting worse and worse, LOL. I really feel like I could have been at least 7 under, so I'm hoping to put together a solid round 2. I'm not holding my breath, but you never know till you hit the links. Good tempo = fun game. Bad tempo = another shot of Jameson! Either way it can't be to bad!

Got around pretty good in R1 - putter bailed me out multiple times. 60 to start and then ran into some tougher spots in R2. Still managed to get to 6-under so 16-under at the cutline. Positioned well to try and make another run at a promo mark. Going to wait until later in the week to finish up. Lovely course, usually it causes me fits so I'm very happy with my results thus far.

Shot a solid -7 in R1 and a similar showing in R2 will let me make the cut. Instead I burn the edge on a few birdie putts and make a bad 3 putt, ending up at -3. -10 could be right on the cut line but I'm thinking it will miss by 1 or 2 shots. Very irritating as I generally played well enough to shoot in the -13 to -14 range.
edit - Yup, going to miss the cut by a shot. Blah!

So two weeks after moving into the euro league I’m sitting on two demotion marks. Seemed to settle myself down a little bit here in week 3. I played my first two rounds at -7 and -5 and Im thinking it could get me through the cut this week and knock off one of my demotions...we’ll see. I’m really enjoying the new challenge still. Playing in the cc was getting stale so fights for the cut line on more difficult courses/conditions are a nice change of pace. I’m currently playing under the mindset of thinking that making the cut is a success....maybe eventually I’ll get to a point where I’m fighting for those promo marks but nowhere near it yet.

Congrats, I'm pretty sure -12 will make the cut given the current first round scores (along with similar conditions for round 2). I'm right there with you, just trying to keep my head above water. Making the cut to get rid of a red tick, or missing the cut but staying inside the top 119 suit me fine for now. A top 10 seems mighty hard so I'll just try to avoid the red marks and keep grinding.

Tough gig today. Could see by the scores & only 2 par 5's in the 1st 4 holes. Miss them & your nowhere. Have to come out swinging. Birdied the 1st par 5 then hit a 20+ft putt for eagle on the second par 5. Apart from plugging my ball on the 13th par 3 for bogie put together a -10. I can see a duff rd on this course somewhere inbetween, but in place to chase a top 10...maybe. 2rd...-11 Birdied 1st 6 th holes but went stale on back 9, apart from eagle 2 on the 10th. Never within clear putting range. All sat an inch passed the hole. Two shots behind the lead at the cut...nice.

Quick look at the leaderboard after round 2.
Best Xbox player is tied for 19th, barely in contention for a promotion mark. He has a 137 WGR. 137.
Yup.

Since it’s looking like -12 should get me through the cut, I played my next two rounds. Went -4, -6. Overall I was having a pretty clean last two rounds until I ran into a double bogey on the back 9 of the last day. -22 overall, I’m just happy to make the cut and play halfway decent on a tough course in tough conditions. I liked it a lot, if you didn’t take advantage of the first few holes it was tough to recover.

Total -38 -8 for rd3, then -9 for rd4. Could have been a contender if I didn't lean on the putter so much. -8 for rd3 was a lot more than I played, but -9 for rd4 was a lot less so evened out... On to Lamar!!

Today I felt the wrath of XB1. Played great in both rounds... F**king very fast off of 15 tee for no reason in both rounds. Double bogeys. So pissed at the moment. HB Studios sucks but what else is new!
