Leader at -27.................after two rounds..................in those conditions? Best Xbox player TEN SHOTS off the pace? Pure bliss There's a slight chance I'll make the cut at -13. Xbox handicap. Xbox tempo roulette equaled 5 bogeys in round 2. Yada Yada.

First week back on the tours and its shows I've got alot of work to do if I want to progress.
Round 1, -7 some good some very poor. 3 putt bogey from 5 ft wont help
Round 2, -7 made the error of hitting a full 94 yard lob wedge instead of a 9 yard chip. Ended up in the water and made triple bogey. Managed 10 birdies from that point so happy with the recovery
Round 3, -7 thru 9 and then putted really bad to finish -10. Happy with the tee to green play Round 4, think I shot a really poor -5. Hit nothing to close.
-29 total. Hope to improve next week.

Played my last 2 rounds this morning. -8, -9. Finished -32, decent tournament but nothing special. Overall I missed a few easy putts, and I played the par 5s terribly which hurt. I did make more chip-ins than I can count so I guess it all evens out in the end.
As for the course, the desert theme is my least favorite aesthetic in the game....but I did still enjoy it and it was well done. There wasn’t any specific aspect of it that seemed especially difficult, but overall it still played tough much of the time. Multiple times it made me pay for shooting carelessly or underthinking a shot that didn’t seem particularly difficult at first glance. Anyways, enjoy the rest of your rounds and good luck out there.

Played like dog poo the last two rounds -5, -5 to finish at -27. Hats off to those of you that went low over the weekend, but when those winds pick up and are going sideways, I really struggle. Regarding the course, I'm with knothead85. Not my favorite theme for courses, and those greens definitely punished you if you weren't coming in from the right angle. Personally hard to enjoy myself with that mix of theme and conditions, but in the end I'm all for the challenge and getting better, so keep 'em coming.

That and wind to my back have always been my big struggle. Have been tinkering around with trying to learn how to cut and draw the ball into the side winds to help take some distance off and fight the wind but i've been so inconsistent with it. When i get it dialed in like this week it works great (just couldn't putt to save my life or i would have gone real low) but other times it's been a struggle and with the difficulty of the greens on this level trying to land the ball perfectly in the typical windy conditions we get is always tough for me.

Finished at -45 which looks like it’ll win after 2nd last week. Definitely left to sweat it after an average weekend of -10 and -8, though. Swing was below par and over-read the 172 greens a bit after the 187s. Overall very happy with a clean week, no bogeys.
Looks like 4 going up to the PGA this week. Stoked!

Just feel like a got a little unlucky this week. Every time I hit a bunker it had to be plugged and ended up on the wrong parts of the green sometimes. Also didn't help that most bad things happened on the first few holes. Anyway I just didn't putt well enough mainly. Hopefully it can be better next week. Congrats winner!

A hopeless +5 after 5 holes. «Recovered» to -1 in the first round. -10 i 2nd, but a missed cut. My fourth Eurotour week, and i wonder; do we ever get a relief from these hopeless arcade-style greens? 😩
