Dear TST enthusiasts, Unfortunately, the 2k23 version of Muirfield is too rough around the edges to use on this tour. Therefore, I'm taking you to Newport News GC this week. A wonderful RCR (Ed Ault design in Virginia) created in 2k23 that provides a different setting but a similar challenge. Should be a lot of fun if you get your ball close... Have fun and good luck, Frans

5 Bogies + 5 Birdies + 7 Pars in the first round with an Eagle on 18. Seven Under Par in Round Two to bring me to (-9) at the turn. More Struggle from meyo is my hope and prayer.

Finished it out. Lots of room for Meyo to Ketchup. But I scored all 4 rounds under par. (-2)(-7)(-4)(-4) = (-17) Frans giving us all a confidence booster with course and conditions. Thanks!

My week:
Slow start, tempo starts to disappear, frustration builds, five-putt, tempo gets even worse, speed golf…
Note to self: don’t do this again. Truth: likely to happen again because I’m an idiot.

My week: Slow start, tempo starts to disappear, frustration builds, five-putt, tempo gets even worse, speed golf… Note to self: don’t do this again. Truth: likely to happen again because I’m an idiot. I feel better seeing your +6. That's proof that this game can get to anyone at any time and that if you lose just a little bit of focus, well, you can't lose any focus in this game. I think we are all burnt out. I've got 1300 hours in and most people are close to that and I smell the burn out through the entire community. GL and HF! Summer is around the corner, and I think I'm going to take a hiatus on all tours, leagues and societies. I never thought I would think, feel or say that about this game. Funny how that snuck up on me. I figured I would average 2000 hours per year on this game. Wrong!

For the last two weeks or so I've somehow started pulling back my stick to 6:15 instead of 6:00 and having the bottom of my line outside the grey has been killing my score. Missing greens from the fairway with perfect tempo, missing short putts, you name it. I'm having a really hard time resetting my muscle memory to stop it

News flash: golfer played his rounds way later than usual! Finished at 5:15 AM local which might have left me about 1 hour 45 to go.
In other news, still consistent. -6, -8 to start at -14 at the halfway and what do you know, hovering around the same range as I always do. Figures.
Solid play, really rough putts spotted so far but handling fine. Outside a three putt in hole 1 which left my start at +1, not too bad yet. Updates and more at 11 (or whenever I play the final rounds).
Cheers, good luck!

-2, -4 to go with my -6, -8 start to finish -20. Scoring dipping like that I don't appreciate. Hey, that's almost like a cheerleading chant!
Horrible tempo, near misses with putts. Some god awful placement of the ball on the greens (screw some of these sidehillers I'm finding!), yadda yadda yadda. You get the gist. EDIT: holy geebus I went back to look at stats and... 28.6% FIR with 72.2% GIR in round 4 just ain't it!
Onto next week, being my usually unspectacular yet decent self.
Cheers, good luck!
