The wind update is back? Hurrah. Sucks that it comes halfway through a tourney though but what can we do? I usually play turn based with my mate but he's on holiday until Friday so will be interesting what wind he gets. I got probably 8mph average through the 4 rounds ranging 5-10mph obviously without the wind update earlier in the week so hopefully the latter guys and girlies will be lucky not to get higher. Looking forward to next weeks tournament now :-) Careful what you wish for,Luke! Next weeks course is tough and it's got changing pin placements!!! I'm looking forward to the changing pin placements, keeps things fresh. This week was my best 4 rounds but after looking at some of the scores I hope I can at least make the top 10! My rounds were 61, 60, 61, 57. I think that's a -45 which is amazing for me. Was lucky with the winds I don't think they ever got above 7mph. If my XBox 360 controller for my PC isn't acting up I can play OK but I'm not sure what's going on. I even bought a new one but every once in awhile it needs to be recalibrated because all of the sudden the analog sticks don't go straight. Very frustrating.

Great course, but another with lots of lag, at least 10-12 started swings and nothing happens. Did the update actually make it worse ? Not sure but by the back nine it usually gets better. I'm beginning to wonder about being in CC-A, I had pretty steady rounds of -4 under for the first two rounds then -6 under for the third and a fantastic -9 under my my last round. Now this is really good for me and yet I'll be lucky to finish in the top 75 If I'm lucky.

Good scores mate but some very good scores posted across all flights. Completely humbled by my -40 and yet that wouldn't win in the lower flights. Great to see such good scores!

Popping in to say hi -- I was up at web.com for exemption but likely won't be staying up there. Looking forward to competing back in CC-A next week. Looks like Hobble Creek gave out some great low-round scores!!

That's unfortunate Nate. With only one player at max getting promoted each week to Web and quality coming up from B I see the CC-A getting closer and closer each week. Next week should be a doozy with multiple pins and the wind update.

Next week should be a doozy with multiple pins and the wind update. Indeed. It's difficult to move up to Web.com -- I put up a respectable -26 which I'm guessing will land me somewhere in the top 25 but not near good enough to beat all 6 CC-Aers that moved up. We're going to have a VERY stacked CC-A group here within a couple weeks. The only good piece is that between 6-9 guys will be up on any given week, leaving some more room at the top. Looking forward to multi pins and winds - I think we'll see some surprising folks move up, and some surprising folks struggle in those conditions. I can't wait!

Pretty depressing tournament for me. I just couldn't buy a putt this week. The winds picked up to 12-14 for my last two rounds but didn't impact me too much. I had so many putts just bounce over the hole or barely miss. I ended up -21. I will chalk it up to being distracted while on vacation.
Any guesses what the 70 mark will be this week?

Midway status from a struggling member . . .
Had first two rounds in mostly 11-13 mph sidewind which was okay but made it hard to get close for me, especially first round. Putting in general is something for me to improve and these slow soft greens are tough for me - like boynsy I struggle with either being short or long. All in all I shot a 64 round one and got my putting better round two for a 62. Hope I can improve further on last two rounds and also avoid dumb bogeys so I won't get another strike.
I think it's super fun playing aginst you all regardles of my results (I try my humble hardest to beat you all haha) and am impressed with what TGCTOURS are doing.

That extra wind does make it harder to get relatively close for your birdie putts. Next week should have equal winds fingers crossed. No idea for 70 mark. I'm going to hazard a guess at -28 (-7 per round). Could be way off the mark though.

I finished at -33 and was like... T29 on PS4 as of last night. I have a feeling that it won't be enough to get top 70 (though we'll see given the XB1 issues).
[That's actually misleading, there could be CCB, CCC etc in that mix as well...]
