Feel free to chat about this week's event. Also, don't be afraid to start a thread as I just sticky the first one created.

After my API debacle last week I had to work on some things with the new controller and didn’t have much time to do it. Started slow and shot -7 in the first round and went right in on the second round after that and for the first time ever I think every putt that normally seems to burn the edge somehow fell in and shot -14 for a -21 at the cut. Now I nervously wait to see if I get the dreaded api email 😬

Well, high winds though -14 might be enough to make my first cut of the season, but not looking good now sadly St Andrews just too easy a track for the aliens amongst us!

After week 2’s second round implosion that saw me fall from the top 25 in round 1 to all the way below the cut line, I was focused on redemption.
A pair of -11s has me sitting in a tie for third place at the halfway point. I went ahead and played my third round to a -9. Waiting on my fourth round, but overall felt back in the groove this week. Maybe a strong final round can put me in the top ten and give me my first ever promo mark in the euro tour....either way I’m happy with the way I’m playing.
As for the course, St. Andrews is as enjoyable as ever.

This is where I make my weekly appeal for a separate Xbox tour or a demotion.

-10/-9 for me, struggled with slow downswings on my approach, 2 of which resulted in bogeys (one from against the wall on 17). Plus a series of phenomenally stupid decisions on 14 in the second round resulted in a double bogey. In striking distance of the top 10 at least.

I decided to stop in since who doesn’t love St Andrews? I like the Euro setups sometimes and it’s decent practice.
I struggled out of the gates with -11 and -6. The 187 very firm had me all confused especially putting. Then fired -15 and -12 (incl bogey on a par5 🤢). Everything went right for the most part. Crazy winds coming home. I think I used an 8 iron on a 122 pin and I was short.

Slow start but think I did enough to make the cut (sitting 17-under). Then I turned it on on the weekend to move up the leaderboard and possible contend for some promo marks. Shot a pair of 61's to finish up at 39-under. Much better than last week's missed cut!

Man the Euro tour board is a ghost town compared to the other tours I used to play on 😳

After last weeks missed cut I was really looking forward to this weeks event @ St. Andrews. Got off to an almost perfect start taking the first round lead with an opening round of 59 that included a very silly bogey at the Par 3 8th. Couldn't recreate the same success of R1 but still managed a decent 64 to hit the halfway stage at -21 and thankfully well away from the cut line. No real expectations at the moment but happy to be in a position to compete for the tournament. Just working on getting my WGR to a better place and if R3 & R4 work out hopefully still in the mix come Saturday. Best of luck everyone

Taking 4 days off between rounds just killed me and I crapped right down my leg. After starting -7, -14 I went -7 +1 for a -27 total.
Good news is I made my first cut this year...bad news I blew a chance for top 10 🤦♂️

Was only 6 or 7 shots back from the PS4 leader with 9 holes to play and I honestly don't know wtf happened but every single bad break I could get, I got. Finished 12 shots back. You wouldn't believe the places my ball ended up

Before everything went wrong, it was going very right
