-9 in Round 1. Just a solid round that was 3 or 4 putts away from being really good.
Will be spreading my rounds across the week now the wind fix is in

Round one couldn't make a putt to save my life. Shot a very disappointing -7 after a -14 in practice with same winds. Not sure why, but the holes on this round seemed to lip out everything I put at it. I had 8 of them lip out and then had 2 bogeys to go with all those troubles. Going to need a -18 or so second round to be competitive this week!

Finished the rest of my rounds. Really could never get anything going. A reasonable 2nd round, a very disappointing 3rd round and I finished off with my best round in the 4th. Putting really let me down as I left over a dozen strokes on the course with lip outs. Meh It happens.
I made only one eagle all week and you can't do that. Loved the winds and I was very happy with my 60 in round four with 10-13 mph winds.
I had one very interesting shot on the 72nd hole. I was flopping from about 33 yards away, against the wind. Easy SW with no adjustments. I know there may be a little spin but not much... supposedly... Hit it beautifully and it landed on the back lip of the cup, bounced up, hit the green about a foot beyond the pin then spun backwards all the way off the green. So close to an eagle. In the end i chipped in for birdie so I was okay with it.
Great little course. Can't take it for granted and the putting really does test you, or at least me.
Good luck all.

-12 Round 2. Up and down round.
Eagled 5 to get to -4 through 5 then went cols for 6 holes.
Parred 9 and 11 which is basically a crime, got angry and birdied the last 7 holes.
-21 at halfway which is a decent position i think. One of those courses where you feel like you should go really low but something tricks you out.

Started with a round of 60 (-12) a few hours ago. Pretty happy with that.
Unfortunately, I was unable to continue. Hopefully I'll keep things going (at least similar) as in Rd1...

Any PS4 players actually hit 100% shot on this course? I give up, it's pointless.

I had to completely change my swing since the new update. The couple shots I had under 100% were my own fault by going back to my old swing. I do have rounds where I struggle getting 100%. It does feel like something is broken at times

Well lets see if I learned anything from last week. Starting off the same way, shooting 60 60 for -24, which is the best ps4 score by 2 strokes thru 36 as of 340pm edt. (NY) I was tied for the lead after 36 last week, and still couldn't muster my 1st ever top 10 finish. I missed a real easy 4 footer for birdie on 17 which really irked me. My big fat ass cat was on my lap so I blame him, (and for the scratch dangerously close to my balls as fled in terror after my sudden profanity outburst.) I was also plagued by more than a handful of 91-94% drives and approaches. I have been firing absolute pin missiles all week, and those that aren't in kick in range, I have been putting so beautifully. As I refuse to try and shoot more that 1 round in a sitting, the drive on 1 to avoid the 1" putt glitch is a fricking nightmare. Especially when its 10mph blowing right into the drink. I breathed a huge sigh of relief as I quietly exited my round safely in the fairway.I will be most disappointed in myself if I fall out of contention. I'm setting my goal much higher this week, and will not try to settle for just a Top 10. I want to win it!

All you can do is just really make sure that the backswing animation reaches the top and watch to make sure you pull the stick all the way back, and give it a good hardy snap forward. I'm sitting on the top of the board, and I KNOW that I've cost myself at least 3 birdie opportunities w 94% approaches.
