Solid first round ruined by a bogey on the last: -12 Dreadful second round due to a putter that couldn't handle uncharacteristically fast Links greens: -8 -20 will likely miss the cut by one shot? Depends on how many people show up. That second round was so damn easy and I flubbed it. I did one full practice round and shot 13 under. I did one front nine practice round and shot 9 under with 2 Eagles. I hate to complain about shooting (-10) and (-9) but here we are.

-5, -6.
Can't score when you can barely hit one shot right or the way you want it. Driving tempo was okay towards the back half of R2 after being all over the place before but approaches sucked almost all the way through. Putts have to be too long and too tough, scrambling needed to be top notch to save from damage which sadly could never be the case in some instances.
Double demos looking like, no pressure on trying to get those out when I've only made 1 cut. I can still play okay when things are working well, but right now I'm way too flip flop. And sadly right now, the flops are hitting me here. It's on me and I know why it is, but somehow fixing the big issues is gonna be rough. Gotta hope to bounce back next week, can't possibly be any worse than this. Or well, I guess it could be but no thinking that way.
Cheers, good luck.

You shot pretty darn good in Red Fast Review this week.

Bit of a frustrating -9 second round. Played well on the front 9 turning at -7 but suddenly forgot how to swing properly on the back and made a couple of stupid bogeys along the way to go with the four birdies. Either way, I shouldn't have any problems making the cut, so now it's just about trying to get as high up the leaderboard as I can, and try to get back inside the top 150 wgr.

You shot pretty darn good in Red Fast Review this week. Truth, that's probably the best I've been doing this week (still TST to go) and only because I decided to putt real well!

Note to self - when deciding to play 'wired' for the first time since purchasing the game, it's probably a good idea to play a practice round/ re calibrate swing. Played horrendously in a first round -6. Recalibrated using this new system before beginning round 2 and shot -12. That missed 10 footer, right to left on 18 in rd 2 for birdie will probably cost me. Still, should avoid the demo's which was the concern after rd1. Hopefully something positive to take into next week...

I see that after 2 rounds, you are -22. Richie would be proud.

I read in a recent golfing publication you were one of the favourites this week after your win last week. Congratulations on that win by the way. Great job!

I meant unexpectedly based on my first two rounds - obviously, now that Iām a winner, I should make every cut! ššššš

Shaky start to the week for me - approach shots were off and left myself a lot of long putts and chips. The latter saved me - think I holed 6 or 7 in the first two rounds. -22 should make the cut, I think?
