Yeah the course had me feeling like real golf. Do I play safe or go for it? Shame landing zones have to be so small to accomplish that on this game tho. I played too aggressively and hit 77-70-75-75 myself for a +17. I feel like if I played it again more intently and not too aggressively I could have broken par.

Nice shooting Alex. Puts you in the PS4 lead at the moment. Be interesting if anyone can make it to -50. Cheers Luke, I've found myself finishing slightly lower in the past couple of weeks, so nice to get near Top 10 on this level again (hopefully) I agree with the above, I also think it's an eagle fest. I think I got 3 eagles in one round, and I've eagled every par 5 on the course across my four rounds I think. One of them was driver 5i, and if you could get it close enough it was an easy eagle.

Even though this course is easier than any we played recently, it does make for a tougher event. Mistakes here can be very costly. A error on a tougher course can be recovered as others will also drop shops. With the quality of golfers on this tour, there will not be many mistakes amount the top of the leader board. I got lucky with the winds for my first round, they never went above seven miles a hour and that really helped over the first four holes with three birdies and a eagle. A lip out on the fifth stopped the best starting run I had in a long time. In fact, lip outs and missing by inches was the story of the rest of my front nine with only one more birdie along the way. I was happy though, I had a chance on every hole and will never turn down six under after nine. The back nine started well with two more birdies, my approaches were landing where I wanted them to which was really nice to see, if I can put the ball close, it takes away some of the pressure from my average putting. To my surprise, this continued for the rest of the round with four more birdies to finish twelve under. Which was a pretty significant moment for me as it was the first time I ever shot a sub sixty round. It has been a long time coming but it sure felt good. It would be nice if I can continue like this, after a strike two weeks ago, my lucky escape last week, avoiding a strike by the skin of my teeth, a week of safety would be a relief. Still what ever happens, I can take pleasure from this round, good luck everyone.

well done mate, what rule is this? I never played golf. Doyleys Post Tiebreaks
its only for determining champions m8, but IRL it goes on back 9, then back 6, then back 3, or at least in my club it does

I see so if 17 players post wrong scores it will come in effect

lol
example- 5 players tied at the top after 4 rounds, me, you & 3 others.
I have a 4 on the last hole in R4 & you have a 3 -(the others got a 5) - You would win.
if we both had 4's it would go to the 17th & so on.
