Ok. So I decided to fire up TGC after a week of non golfing. FTL and GTA_V dominating what spare time I have.
I should have had at least 1 practice round, but I find that 3 or 4 holes into a practice round Im comfortable enough to start the competition proper. WRONG.
Hole one, I'm just off for two, three putted for bogey. The greens read about 154ft speed, I was playing it like it was 120ft and soft. I figure one over after one, not great but not the end of the world. Proceeded to miss the fairway (found 2 bunkers off the tee) about 50% of the time I reckon, low winds too! Hell, I even went from one bunker to another. Missed 90% of my birdy putts, either lipping out, or just plain old poor read/poor hit. No excuses. So after 9 holes, I was sitting at one over with 2 bogeys and 1 birdy.
The back nine didn't prosper any better. The lowlight of the round being the bogey on 18, a 3 putt from only 15 ft. My first putt went 15 ft PAST the hole lol, and didn't make the putt back.
Another miss cut no doubt. Just goes to show that you do need to put your time in (well some of us hackers anyway) and maybe, just maybe they tweaked the tee shots, so shots not dead center in cone have more range of movement.... ie more likely to go into rough.
Good luck to all, not a hard course but a fair and strangely tough one I reckon.

Jules, it was nice to see your play this week I have played the whole tournament with your ghost. Congratulations for great result, top of leaderboard for sure. For me only moderate result -6,-7,-6,-10 (-29) so only last round on solid level.

Opened my first round with a bogey and proceeded to to everything right with 13 birdies until my bogey 4 on the 18th. Never had a problem with the 18th before but landed awkwardly off fairway from drive and hit water twice Rest of the rounds went fairly smooth. 62/61/63/62 for the week. -17 should make the cut I hope

63-57-64-59 - 37 under total Round 1 - Solid until the 18th. 94% tee shot just made it over the water but got greedy with my approach from the rough and got wet. Managed to make a 5. Round 2 - Close to perfection Round 3 - Hit it great, couldn't buy a putt but managed 4 birdies in 5 to finish Round 4 - Again very good. Much happier overall, think it will see me back into the Top 25 which was the target after my recent slump. Never 100% satisfied of course

I need to up my game a bit I think! A fairly average 4 rounds for me - 64/62/66/63. Should make the cut, but not much else I'd imagine!
Interesting how we can go through lulls in our game like they do in the real world.
Anyway, looking forward to the May update being pushed out, no more wind waiting, and a completly level playing field!

I'd be running away with this if only some of those bastarding putts would drop! I get off to a flyer. -6 after 8. Glorious stuff on display. And then I proceed to birdie only 2 of the following 18 holes. Birdied 3 of the last 4 holes in the 2nd round to hit the halfway stage at -13. Oh what could have been though.
