Well I crapped the bed again this week. First round heading into 18, and I randomly get a SLOW swing, it shoots dead right into the water. Then next one frustrated, Too Fast, and it goes OB somehow just past the bunkers beside the green on the left. I think I made 8. Ended up at -3.
Knowing I was now most likely going to miss the cut, I just flew threw the next 3 rounds, pissed. Finished overall at -17, but will miss the cut.
I STINK playing the easy courses LOL!

Ouch 😓 That happened to me on the 72nd hole 3 times - went from -16 to -10 Was sort of hoping I’d missed the cut anyway but think I will just make it - on to next week

Great play Roberto 👏 there is no way -19 is missing the cut - keep it up and you could have a nice cheque coming your way! Thank you Richard! A soso 3rd round and now I'm 26 under (with at least 3 putts left on the green and a stupid boogie on the first par 5)...let's see tomorrow what will take the 4th one

At least you weren't T3rd to Last like me! hahaha I’m sure you’ll bounce back! It’s also nuts that it needed -7 to avoid a double demotion mark On a different subject can anyone explain why our world rankings have taken a tumble this week? I had a top 20 finish and fell 445 places!

Crazy low scores this week, tough break -11 at halfway not being enough 😱
I made the cut and currently sat tied 39th on -20 but no chance of any promo marks with these scores !

saucysixputt I read somewhere there had been a bit of an admin error and all inactive players had been reinstated. I’m guessing it’s to do with this? Should sort itself out soon enough

A couple of one-under-par 70s for me in the new event - not as bad as it sounds with a welcome increase in winds but very likely to miss a second cut in succession and maybe pick up at least one demotion mark

I sghould be able to play a round later today...let's see!

I feel to score well this week your approach shots need to be well executed into the right areas and with high winds and uneven lies that could potentially prove tricky. A 67 -4 and a 63 -8 start for me. Not bad but not troubling the leaderboard I feel. Hopefully good for the cut though. Good luck all

Another poor exhibition this week and another missed cut... -3 after 2 rounds, completely out of pace on approach shots and on the green. A lot of work to get more competitive results but I also have to rethink my bag as the last changes (longer 3 wood and 3 iron instead of the hybrid have not been working as I wanted). Already moving to Rosies Highland Park for our next tourny

Better week this week. Although not great until 4th round. Currently -8 (T35). Ended up at -21 (shot -9 in 4th round). Doubt I'll knock one of those red marks off though.
I can't tell you how many putts I missed in Rd1. I had 29 putts, and I'm usually around 24. Frustrating.
