Somehow managed -4 in round 1. But this course laughed in my face in round 2 so I'll miss the cut at E.
Found out my headset is nearly indestructible. So I've got that going for me.

Great course. Kicked my butt. Changed my swing after a break from playing, and now I forget how to do the other things like wind calculating, putt, etc. on top of fighting this new swing?!?! I would've thought you can't forget that stuff, but apparently I did. Will it be a normal backswing or a slow? Will it be a regular downswing or a fast? I don't know any more. I'll try to make the cut next week. That's my goal now. Good to see you back 😎

Who cares about the US OPEN! Toronto Raptors beat Golden State Warriors for their first and Canada's first NBA Championship!! Not one of the other US based teams could do it so they left it to Canada. #WeTheNorth!
Congrats Toronto Raptors!

Contending in a major after only making like 50% of the cuts all season was a surprise, but I fell well short with a bunch of bogies and a -4 final round. Should be good for a top 10 which is very nice.
And yeah, definitely congrats to the Raptors, that was a solid series and watching in the morning from my office in Japan made this week quite exciting.

Well, i really made the cut on the number (-4) as a qualifier. I didn't see that one coming. I played my last two rounds of the tourney more or less as practice rounds because i was sure that i wouldn't make the cut. I scored a mediocre -3 in the 3rd round and was playing much better in the 4th .... when i made a 7 triple bogey although hitting the green in two. I just cannot figure out the downhill putts. Always too much tempo (what's the formular with the marker? ?). So what could have been a -7 ended up as a -4. -11 for the tourney. Somewhere between 50th and 60th place probably. But doesn't matter: I qualified (wasn't easy to get into the Top 10 in a field of ~ 600) and i made the cut. Good enough for me. I am a happy camper!

Do they send out emails explaining why your scores got pulled?

Do they send out emails explaining why your scores got pulled? No, if you’ve had your scores pulled then you’ll get a mail to say so. If you want to discuss the why, and how to make efforts for it not to happen again, there will be an instruction to take it to the fair play forum.

3rd in the bag with a 63 for -13 with a round to go. Played Round 3 in exactly the same fashion as Round 2 with the same results. The last few holes are definitely the one's you can attack ( if that's the right word on this course! ) so patience is the key, don't get greedy if your front 9 is troublesome. I think 61 or 62 is about the best you can do on this, without the aid of some chip ins, or canning one from distance. Can't see 60 being broken without some serious luck. Will wait until Saturday to do last round, which depending on how I do could result in a finish anywhere from 10th to 60th I'd imagine.
Can you imagine how you'd have to design a course to get a realistic US Open winning score like -2 or something? 😂

No KD, Klay with a torn ACL, and Kawhii departing- you really better celebrate this one like it's a once in a life time event. on topic- as a judge in the major design competition- this course especially, crushed my will to play the game. #TGCPTSD Kudos to you all who figured it out enough to make the cut.

I haven't received an email and I don't see my scores so I was wondering. I appreciate your help.

Given we have no clue who you are, what platform you play on, no knowledge whether you are actually supposed to be in this tournament (or one of the other tours' events), we're going to struggle to help you!
If you haven't received the DQ email, then you are unlikely to have been DQ-ed - which would suggest you're looking either in the wrong tournament, or you've done something else which is stopping the API picking up your scores.
So give us a clue..... (eg do you have a PGA card? which tournament did you qualify in? etc)

First i return from a hiatus then big Bobby B resurfaces like a hedgehog from the winter frost.
I feel its almost on a par with Jordan and Pippen retiring from the Bulls mid 90s then coming back and winning everything.
Welcome back Bobby Dazzler.
