I believe we need a fadgewacker API update - I could have sworn -9 was in 20th just an hour or two ago......and now inexplicably moved up to 19th

There's some strange fella called Garcia on the leaderboard on a Monday - I'm confused as I've never seen him appear before Thursday before? What imposter has taken over blueorfe 's account?? (And he also appears on the TST leaderboard too)
What is dave going to do this week, without being able to call Brad a dirty watcher / waiter ??
I've lost interest in the game really since Sir Charisma and Mr Personality help each other round. Happy to hear he found the hand he was searching for. Although a little disturbing!

No way to be diplomatic about this... but it’s a very fine line he’s treading... again.

Title defense update - Round 1: Damn...I suck It's not just you bud. This course was made in TGC2. Practically every pin is on a mound and thus you need pin point accuracy. For most of us, that's quite a challenge. Given the physics of 2019, it's even harder as we don't have the spin to stop it like we did in TGC2. To make matters worse, the course setup folks decided very firm very fast was a good idea. This is getting very tiring. It's not even enjoyable. I wouldn't be surprised if the margin between winner and T10 is the widest all year. I'm not sure what the goal is in choosing a course with these conditions in 2019. I guess it separates the field? For what purpose? We know who the people that are most accurate are... and most of them are teetering the line of a DQ any given week as well. I almost think the PGA needs its own survey... I'm stuck in a limbo of having to play with these setups because I can't possibly go down to Euro where the playing field is seemingly more even. I don't have any desire to go to BCT. Here's my R4... just sort of half-assed... got lucky on 15. Imagine that, a nice line on my approach and the result that occurred!

I like yorkshire pudding and fish and chips. I like french fries and poodles. I like schnitzel and red light districts. I'll probably like Spain, heard the ladies are insane there. Maybe the Euro Tour won't be so bad. I am astonished at how much worse I am today compared to months ago.😖

I guess I'm just too high to see who we lost. I only noticed 1 guy who is missing. I'm headed out West this weekend!

-6 and -9 for -15 through 2 #cutwatch
the -9 included a double on that stupid par 3 14 and then holed out for eagle on 15 to get it right back

Forgoing the running joke on my title defense updates.... Rounds 2 and 3, I was quite pleased with considering recent form. Nothing spectacular, but had me at least in the top 3 on PC - I'll take that these days. Even with round 3's vf/vf/vf setup, I thought those pins with that wind played fine. Then we got into round 4...
I mean....just couldn't get the ball to stop anywhere near the cup aside from one or two holes.
Thought I'd managed the 1st hole really well, played a strategic layup at an angle not directly toward the hole to get the 3rd shot I wanted, and executed fairly good, leaving a 5ft putt. I proceeded to damn near putt the ball off the green from 5ft, having missed on the low side of the cup after playing more than a cup's worth of break. I just have no control of where my ball is going to start, regardless of whether it's a putt or a full shot. Feels like I'm doing the same, or at least similar, motions on the same side of the joystick as I have since tgc2, but I'm all over the place. I can score every now-and-then when my putter is rolling, but on setups like we had in round4, I might as well be the amateur marker playing with the last touring pro in an odd numbered field who needs a playing partner.
Anyway, this is without doubt a low point for me on the enjoyment scale, but it is what it is. I'll likely keep showing up for a while and going through the motions of trying to return to decent form - may take a week off if I'm just really frustrated/can't be asked to try, knowing that it won't work, but I dk if that'll actually happen (not that anyone cares lol) - but that's what I've been doing for a while now and it's actually getting worse. All good things must come to an end at some point I guess, maybe this is just the beginning of the end for me...we'll see.
GL to all left to finish, and well played to the ps4 robots who will inevitably make up the top10 again this week - who would have guessed?!?
