Played much better in rounds 3 and 4 this week. Finished tied for 4th, first top 5 finish on the tour. Pretty sure I'l be moving up to I. Looking forward to next week featuring two of the Dream Team Contest courses. Should be a fun challenge.

Swing held together quite nicely for the first 9 holes this week, then fell apart a bit. Ended up in some horrible spots, including in some long grass that took 3 shots to escape from.
Battled to get to -2 after the first two rounds, hoping that’s enough to make the cut.

I’ve only managed one round so far and finished with a -4 and hope I can continue that or better in the next round! Good luck everyone else 👍

+1 after the first round. Real tough course this week. Just hoping to break par in round #2.
Well done on the designer of the course.

Just finished my second round with a little more of an improvement on my first round with a -6 so sitting on -10 through the first two rounds and feeling happy that my swing and tempo is starting to feel normal and hope this can continue and need to keep playing more now as when I have a break it feels like I have to learn everything all over again

Welp, I made the cut this week, then tanked a little R4. Excellent course gcsinsane ... I started to tear it up front 9 each round, only to falter on the back . Kept taking the bait to go with driver when going 3W or less might have been better play.

Finished my final rounds with a -1 and a -7 last round to be sitting at -18 and really happy I could continue the good scores through all four rounds as that’s not been my strong point lately. Might get me one or two promotion marks but I’m worried my -19 in the promotion event might shoot me too high 😄 Good luck those finishing up 👍

Tough course this week (though they all are for me! LOL). Someone mentioned about the multi tiered greens, which create small landing areas, which I agree with. You really have to be accurate on your approach shots or risk a looooong uphill putt to try and get it semi close for a par attempt. All too often in round 1, I was missing the green or quite a bit off the pin even if I landed on the green.
After a terrible Round 1 of +5, managed to come back with a -1 in the second round. Usually dont look at the cut line before finishing my second round and so I was pleasantly surprised to see that I will probably make the cut.
My goal is to finish under par after 4 rounds.

Except for a terrible round #3, played pretty decently this week. Course was tricky. Some high risk/reward holes and alot of water, which I became familiar with at times. Finished at -4, but coulda/shoulda been a -8 or better.
Oh well, onward to next week!!!

Finished this week E -2 E -2, for a -4, which was thoroughly ........ mediocre. LOL
Really struggled on this course and was a bit surprised that most people across the various flights scored really well on here.
Onward to next week!!

For me, a fairly decent start to the week. -5 and -5 at the turn. Managed to 3 putt from 4 feet in the second round or would have been a couple shots lower. Making the most of my birdie chances and able to have some fairly long par saving putts. Aiming for my first top 25. Onward!!

Round 1 this week (Scottsdale Desert Classic) was a real struggle. Seemed to have equal number of pars, birdies, and bogies. Unfortunately, a couple of those bogies were doubles, so ended at +2. Played pretty solid in Round 2 (at least for me). Never in any major trouble and finished the round at -3, for a total of -1 at the turn.
Hopefully good enough to make the cut.
Been hearing others mention they are having lag issues and was pleasantly surprised not to have any. I have a PS4 and live in a rural area, so the internet leaves something to be desired (~3 Mbs download and ~2 Mbs upload) but have not had any issues so far. Keeping my fingers crossed for rounds 3 and 4.
