I will be live broadcasting around midnight EST tonight. I plan on playing at least two rounds. Big advantage to see the course first!
EDIT: going to use this as the locker room thread now - Doyley

My round 4 putting probably cost me the tournament. Most of my putts just skirted by the hole instead of dropping. Probably high 20s total putts in R4. Oh well. I'll be interested to see if someone can put together a -60 on this course.
It's a spoiler thread now, so here are my rounds.
R1: 58 (-14) R2: 57 (-15) R3: 59 (-13) R4: 65 (-7) Total: 239 (-49)
Just not a good round 4 at all for me. Very few of my approach shots went as planned and left me with some awkward putts, which I continually had slide around the cup. Worst hole was #11, the easy par 5. Hit a SW from 82 yds away and wanted to hit it 84 yds to avoid falling down the slope. I guess the wind caught it a little more than I expected and it landed 82 yds exactly and spun all the way down the large slope around the hole. Just took too many putts that I would normally sink. My other three rounds were pretty solid though. Had an alby on the first par 5 in round 2.

Until they change the thread to (Spoiler), I will keep the torture to myself, as it has been so for a long time.

You beat me by 1 anyway Bob!
Couldn't sink a putt outside 4 feet if my life depended on it.

So the inability to get a score under 60 is getting comical for me. I am happy with my four round total, but two more scores of exactly 60 and one at 61.. really?!?!

When you finally break the 60 barrier, it will be a round of 54 or something ridiculous like that. So obviously you're waiting for the Masters to do that.

My other three rounds were pretty solid though. Had an alby on the first par 5 in round 2. Those are some crazy scores. I think we can pencil you in for a top 5 guaranteed, and that will be a very tough score to top. Round four was also my worst score of the tournament. Mostly the same story.. my approaches didn't go as I envisioned them. Mine was, as I said, another flirtation with a round under 60, but just not getting there. Round 1 I had the chance at the end, but nope. Round 2 I was close, but nah. Round three was the most agonizing. Was -8 through 10 with a hole-out on the front nine for eagle, only to not get there in the end. Missed a six foot birdie putt late in the round three on a par 5. Grrr. Round four I never had the flow or scores to challenge a sub-60. Six rounds of exactly 60 for the season now and eight total in my TGCT "official" career. R1: 60 (-12) R2: 61 (-11) R3: 60 (-12) R4: 63 (- 9) Total: 244 (-44)

R1: 59 (-13) R2: 61 (-11) R3: 63 (-9) R4: 62 (-10) Putting was dreadful. My best round (R1) only came because of not having to putt on some holes... 1 Albatross and 2 Eagles. Came about an inch from 2 more eagles. Just depresses me when I see the putting lines, read the putt and either the ball doesn't move or it flies up a hill or breaks far more than it suggests. Missed opportunity I think. Nice score Jared, wouldn't be surprised if you win with that and even more impressive on your 1st official tournament as a PGA Pro

Wow, great scores guys! I'm nowhere close with a 66-60-64-64 (-34).

I was happy with my -30, but not anymore... Knew I had two iffy rounds but thought it would be good enough to sneak in for a top 25 with a depleted field guess not.

Shows how good and how deep our tours are when the top-level players are playing at the WGC event and people over here are still just killing it. I felt good about a -19 start but I'm not sure that will make the cut even?

OK! I have finished my week touring around Peru and Machu Picchu and am back in the saddle this week. Haven't had any practice on the course or the game in better than two weeks, so expectations low...but hopefully I can get to the point of making cuts and competing again sooner than later. Looking forward to getting back into the game with all of you!

Well I missed a 5 foot putt on 17 and 10 footer on 18 in the last round to tie Jared at -49. Nice little choke by me there. This was a perfect example of why I like to get out earlier in the week so I don't get all nervous by being influenced on other peoples scores! Haha Ah well, live and learn I guess.
Good luck to everyone else

Good luck to everyone else Don't worry, I think you got the tiebreak if I remember correctly. My round 4 scorecard was just a whole bunch of pars. I'm not sure if I made more than two birdies on the back. On that note, I now hope someone goes and shoots -50. I rather lose outright than lose on a damn tiebreak again.
