"Those PGA guys can handle it though..."
In fairness, this one isn't on the rangers group. I never saw/can't find a thread for the course, so I'll just assume (hope) there was some sort of "internal" testing? Always the possibility I've completely overlooked it, but definitely not seeing one anywhere, not that it really matters. Who knows...I definitely just quit trying after that nonsense, but it's not like I was going to challenge for anything more than a top 30-ish anyway. It's just a game, won't lose sleep over it or anything, but definitely a bummer that a) we had to play this generic POS HB design; and b) there was something missed in determining setup that completely ruined the integrity of the outcome. I suppose it happens every now and then, though I can't remember something like this actually being on tour (that I've participated in at least), but none of us are perfect. On to next week, hope I can get back to my normal tempo performance, because this week was no good if I want to try and stay in the top 20 of these leaderboards.

First tournament on the PGA Tour (after a short stint for the US Open) .... first cut made on the number.
I take it - although it is pretty clear that i never ever will come close to a Top 10. I played okay in the first 3 rounds and will sit around 60th.
4th round was poor with a 3 under (i made Par on 6 !!!). So, i will finish near the end.
I am glad that i made it to the top tour. I will be fighting for cuts and i will try to avoid demotion to the Euro tour.
To me that's just the nature of competition: Not everybody can win - only one player can win every week. But everyone can do his best. That's what i will do!!!
Good luck next week to all!

Made the cut at -21... -25 thru 3! Don't play drunk and tired, kids...
Just need to hole out for a 2 on the 6th in R4 to get a few back on the field.
[all said and done earlier, but it's a real shame that the winner of this event is going to be decided by who managed not to make a total dog's arse out of that hole in R4]
I'm off to practice Portrush this evening - If anyone fancies a knock, UK time prob about 23:00 till late, hit me up.

6 months into the game, couple of rounds every day, I've ended up in the OCD ward (PGA). Not a bad 1st outing. -27 at the cut was a nice walk. Felt good. Moderate greens in rd2 throw a spanner in my works, never really play them. Just played rd3 & rd4, not so great. Didn't quite have the feel of the controller today. Few bogies sneeking in. Hole 6 rd4 took a bogie, knew it was coming. Landed it above the hole, missed the downhill, then 2 putted back up the hill. Holes still playable if a bit random. Ok, I'm off to find a concrete post to take to the Open, get the ball through the Gale force winds... -14 -13 -11 -9 -47

-40 for me. ๐๐
Hilarity on 6. Also, had 2 putts roll right thru the hole on 18. ๐๐
See y'all at The Open!

Don't play drunk and tired, kids... Just so everyone is perfectly clear on this... it's important.... just drunk is fine. Mighty fine even. It's the "and tired" bit that's the killer...

Hey Doyley are there any plans next season to include demotion strikes regardless offield size to say the bottom 3 players or will that thin out the tour even more? We had 10 new players from the promotion event, but at least 3 that I know of asked for voluntary demotion and it seems as though there were multiple account users too which was skewing things as well. Are the top 25 Euro money list players for the season being promoted like in real life to bump the numbers up?

Couldn't finish round 4 fast enough as the towel was thrown in after #6. Solid 6 putt to end my top 10 streak. Laughable. I'll keep my thoughts to myself on this tournament as a whole. Onto next week!

-4 to finish, with a tremendously messy 10 on the 6th leaves me a solid 30 shots behind the leader...
... but Iโve been out of the basement and onto the real course today. So, that! Basement dwellers!!
I could do with some e-golf swing lessons.
Love you all - Fadge

A rare flourish of approach & putting aplomb on R3 to card -14. Back to earth with a bump on R4 with a -4. Disappointingly, didn't succumb to the hole 6 debacle... putted fully around the hole on my opening 20 footer, and started to get excited (for the first time on this insipid course), but managed to nail the first attempt at the 40 footer back up, for a par - boo!
-38 total will see me finish right in the middle of middlesville... where else.
Congrats to the nutcases at the top. I hate you and you probably cheated. Or something.

What the El, Tel? This might have been the more cryptic music video though.
