I told my wife I finished 2nd last week and she looked at me like I was crazy... Haha. What I hear when I am playing a country club social on xb1 and in a party talking is "you know their not really your friends" like their make believe. Lol! Also, me and everyone playing are also "nerds." They just don't understand sometimes. Oh man. I've had a group of REALLY close friends for 5 or 6 years now that I met playing NHL on Xbox. I think it was the '08 iteration where we "met" on a forum. We now typically do annual vacations somewhere, and I was in the wedding party of one of the guys. I've been 2 for 3 in girlfriends who have understood it. One just couldn't wrap her head around the fact that these were real people I was talking to..

I'm beginning to have a strong hatred for the 10th hole....
65 for this round leaves me -11 and hoping it's the cut line.

Also, me and everyone playing are also "nerds." They just don't understand sometimes. Sounds just like my wife, she thinks golf in general is the most boring "nerd" sport around, let alone playing a virtual version of it with "fake" friends..... Our deal is she doesn't speak to me about her mum or doctor who and I don't speak of The Golf Club, and that works fairly well for our relationship. She's just not intelligent or cultured enough to understand the fine nuances of the sport that's been played for half a century. Only had time to play my first round today so far but managed to card a -11 60, best round on this course to date for me, mostly thanks to a hole out on the 14th (https://youtu.be/TYdmruMnHY0), was sitting at a disappointing -4 when that shot gave some life to my round.

Stunning 3rd round. 13 birdies. -59. Gutted when I bogeyed the 2nd, I had this marked as a birdie once I worked out how to play it. 15th still didn't work out but I almost holed it from the hill. Which is the hole where you can drive it in a stream if wind is with you? I was tucked under the tree so had to aim way way left, managed to draw it round the trees and hit the flag. Normally it would have bounced a few yards away but this time it dropped within inches. Probably my best ever shot in the game. The trees and some of the slopes a a little unfair but I've still enjoyed my first three rounds. I must be up against most of my rivals now. Feels good guys and gals!

Stuck in glitch beside 17 green. Took the max. Very cool. Back to back MC for the first time ever.
Not happy with this course.

Sitting right on the -9 cut line, squeaky bum time. EDIT: And I'm off the cut! Dammit

Three of us on the -10 cut line right now. Six players with -5 or better on the first round that have yet to submit round 2. This group will probably displace the three on the -10.
So the question is, will there be enough players to come out of the woodwork to displace the 13 of us at -11? As Mr. Mather just said, squeaky bum time!

I'm predicting a-11 cut... Mainly because I shot -11... Going to depend on what those who have yet to submit scores shoot.

I'm at -11 as well and sweating it out. I played better in round 3, including my first ever ACE! So I'd like that to be official if possible...

I'm sitting at -18 through two rounds (60 & 64), can't complain about that despite some mediocre play in round 2, bogeyed 3 holes (which is more than I've ever bogeyed in all my practice rounds, can't take the pressure I guess), this course just punishes me on a few holes every round, can't seem to put together full 18 of mistake free golf.

It will be a shame if you get bumped and don't get to count that -14/-15 round. I am looking forward to seeing that scorecard!

I appreciate the hard work that has gone into this course but it is the worst course I have played on tgctours. Ridiculous placement of trees, holes that made no sense, hope to never play a course like this again.

It was a -14, which may get me the record this week for biggest disparity between best and worst round. Jared has the fifteen under. Hope you're right!

I hated this course. I guess I just wasn't in to it from the get-go, but I have a couple large issues with this course:
- First of all, this is about equivalent to every course I've ever made and scrapped. That's right, most of everything I've ever made I've scrapped but that's just cause I'm way to hard on myself. Nonetheless, I would have scrapped many of the holes on this one.
- Second, the 17th hole. Have you had my experience....hit just to the right on the approach...disaster. That shrubbery area, yeah that'll gobble ya up! I'm sitting just off the cut line and I'm trying to birdie birdie the final two, and I hit it right...and end up with deep in the shrubs. I hit a few strokes with no progress, and I know I'm screwed at this point, so I declare the shot unplayable...only to be left with the option to drop behind the shrubs, which led to hitting the shrubs attempting to clear the shrubs. Shrubs, all up in my face. I got shot limit on that hole.
I may have had a few beers fresh off watching the Jays game, but I didn't deserve that! The damn shrubs should be o.b.! Worst course I've ever played on tour, sorry creator.
