I would say great playing shooting -11 in this new much harder game that seems to have come out with the update... You must have one of the best short games there is with the ball going all over the place like that in the long game. I actually think I have a great short game, but you can ask Brionne about that. I drive him nuts with it Not sure what is meant by 61% Currently -11 is tied for 14th if -18 is 100% then -11 is only 61%.

Opening with 2 rounds of 66 means I'm probably going to miss my first cut. The wind was harsh and the putts just weren't dropping. The shame!

My 66-64 sure is not going to cut it. Missed too many <=8ft puts on those tricky slopes. The scores are low but consider the best players from BOTH PGA and Euro are in the tournament, so the cut line ought to be really low.

Reckon I will miss the cut with opening 2 rounds of 66 and 68. First cut I have missed since my first event on Tour

One day I will learn.... I will learn to just start up the game and go out and play a round instead of practicing first, since i can never shoot as well as I did in the practice round. LOL

Finished 60,62,58,62 46 under currently leading on the ps4 but don't think it's good enough to win. 4 solid rounds this week. Only 1 hiccup a bad 3 putt bogey in the 4th round. Very good course.

Certainly my worst tournament by far to date.
I will probably be missing my first cut too. The annoying thing is that from tee to green my game was fine, but for some reason I missed just about everything outside of 6 feet, I lipped out from 7 feet on the very first hole and it just continued like that for all four rounds. I probably only missed five or six G.I.R. but I just couldn't get it done on the greens this week. Lots of bad decisions regarding lay ups on the par 5's or choosing the wrong club for pitches etc. Just a bad week.
64,63,62,65 for a very underwhelming -34. I suspect that -17 will be a couple too many to even make the weekend though as this is such an easy course.

You have done enough to make the cut I think Brad. Only wish a -10 was enough as I made a 65 and 61 in last 2 rounds

Yeah, looking at the leaderboard after two rounds it looks like it should be fine. I think it was a knee jerk reaction from me after looking where I was after round one, the scores posted at the top of the leaderboard and the quality players still to play.

Yeah i was worried initially too with my -19 but looks like that is actually fairly good through 2 rounds, but stumbled to a 65 and 66 on weekend to finish -32. Definitely have been struggling with putting as some have mentioned since update. I play on PC and others seem to have experienced same issues while others say they notice no difference. I typically miss putts left or right if I misread them but usually my distance control is quite solid, but has been abyssmal since the update. Don't know what to make of it. I haven't noticed the big changes in FPS like some have blamed the concerns on. Then again I feel like the greens at Gator Hole are faster than other fast-rated greens if that makes any sense. Basically I feel lost haha.

Sitting at T-25 right now with -18. I'm expecting that to fall down towards the mid-30's to 40th once most guys get their scores in. I'm hoping my weekend scores of 60-60 for -42 climb up the leaderboard. How did most of you guys fare on the weekend? The pins seemed tougher, but I just got my putter rolling at the right time.

Well after a -11 in which I felt I really had to struggle to get, I shot a -5 second round. I'm not sure what HB did with the patch, be it changing Frames per Second on the PC or anything at all with putting, I can honestly say for round 2, 3 and four I have never missed so many 7-12 foot putts in a tournament. I talked with Brionne when it first came out that balls seemed to be breaking a lot more than normal and i backtracked a bit on that as I practiced more, but 95% of my putts slid under the hole, more times than not starting off fine and then breaking HUGELY at the hole, even though the lines were the same speed. I'm not complaining about the changes or the course, just saying something has changed that i couldn't adjust to. If my -16 makes the cut, I finished with -31 which is just sickening, considering before the patch, I shot -51 for the four rounds. In this tourney it was all about the putting. I was not throwing darts but over 75% of my shots were within 15 feet and I just couldn't make a putt. Good luck to everyone! Gotta figure all this out

Gotta figure all this out Sorry to be the nae sayer, but HB have changed nothing with the actual putting. May have to do with optimisation and your swing is more/less fluent, but that's all I can think that may be affecting you. Check the patch notes as I am not 100% sure on this as I only briefly glanced at them myself
