Well at this rate it won’t take me long to be demoted to CC-H. LOL!

Back when the red fast update came in I was in CC-C. I probably shouldn't have been that high up but I'd had one of two good results in the promotional events and that rocketed me upwards faster than I was ready for. CC-C was too rich for my blood anyway, but then the update came and decimated my game and I missed every....single....cut for the rest of the season. I dropped down the divisions like an elevator with cut cables and by the end of the season I was here in CC-G with one demotion mark to my name.
So the more recent update plus the change of Tour settings to Pro has saved my bacon, and has also restored a large chunk of my enthusiasm for the game again. I finally made a cut in the opening event (hallelujah!) which cleared that demotion mark, and now it looks like I might even pick up a promotion mark in the current one as I put in some of my best scores in months. I am so relieved that I just can't tell you.
I'm looking forward to the rest of the events now, rather than gritting my teeth and desperately trying to play two consecutive good shots in the hope of making the cut.
Phew.

That was the problem for a lot of us lower down the divisions. It was a matter of gritting your teeth and cracking on to hold on to a tour card or just bin the game. Pro may be on the easy side but at least you can have a bit of fun!!

Pro may be on the easy side but at least you can have a bit of fun!! Yes, Pro is definitely easier but I'm enjoying not having a knotted colon while I play, and spending less time in the sand/bushes/cabbage/water. And since it's easier for everyone I don't feel that anyone in particular has an advantage, even if some players' scores are now stratospheric. I try not to look at them anyway, I just keep my head down and play it one shot at a time, and hope I can see some improvement round to round. Anything else is a bonus!

3 decent rounds ruined by a really poor 3rd Round. -42 should've, could've been better.

I had a tough start for Rounds 1 and 2…..and currently near the cut line of -10 I did make a bag change after Round 2….Swing plane was much better.
In round 4 I had a stupid Double Bogie on Hole 7 as I went off of the cliff with a slow. I knew I should have played more to the left but had confidence, oh wow….. I also left 2 other shots out there with short missed putts.
Rd 1 66 (-6) Rd 2 67 (-5) Rd 3 63 (-9) Rd 4 59 (-13)
-33
Now on to the Promo Event rounds…..

Choosing not to play this week after hearing many complaints about the greens. Better to take a week off and get no demo marks and keep my sanity than play and piss and moan about it. See you all next tourney!
