Hey guys. Lots of familiar faces around here. I signed up for the next Euro tournament (I think the course is Goldfinch?) to use my exemption from last weekend. Do you guys know if using my exemption in Euro and getting the promotion automatically gets me an Euro card? Or do I get to choose between Euro and PGA card? Also, since I'm an American, am I even able to get an Euro card? Hey Jimmy! Nice to finally see you here - hope you'll manage to stay

A little -29 this week. Pretty happy with that. #8 and #10 on the Friday/Sunday set up ate me alive, think I was +5 on those 2 holes, wish I could've played those better but all in all pretty happy with it.

You'll get Euro card - to get PGA card you have to use it in PGA event Ok, I'm fine with that. You should be happy about that, as the EUR-Tour is the better tour anyway. Uffff.... nothing said!

I'm not sure if it matters but I entered my round 3 and 4 scores bass awkwards. Round 3 is 4 and 4 is 3. Terrible scores either way. This wasn't my favourite course, but it doesn't look like I was the only one to struggle.
Highlight of my round would have to be taking a nine on .... 13 or 14, can't remember.... That short par 4 with the false front on the green.... Evil shenanigans.

If the scores entered are higher than your actual score, the higher score will count. if they are lower you'll be DQed

Must say I'm glad it's over. -11 -6 -5 -1
Final round really hurt me. Bad approaches which lead to chips and flops that I did not play very well. Lost every bit of confidence that I build up over the last weeks on this round. -23

I caught it as soon as I hit enter but there was no going back. Seems silly to get DQ'd from 70th place for an honest mistake

Those are the rules of the game... lesson learned i guess. i will only make that mistake once After it happened to me, I now take a screen shot of every round and name them Round 1, 2, 3 or 4. I triple check before I hit that enter button. As you said lesson learned.

After taking a couple of days break from tournament golf, I decided to play my final two rounds tonight. I finished 57,64,62,62 for a -39 total. A course that suits my game. I've had some success on firm setups, the fact that pars are good on a lot of the holes gives me a calmer feeling when playing these tournaments. Round one was incredible, I started with holing my approach into the 1st and played flawlessly for the rest of the round. Round two was a bit of a reality check, standing on the 14th tee at only -3 I thought that I'd played my way out of the tournament after that crazy first round. Then out of the blue I holed my second and made two more birdies coming in for a respectable 64. Round 3 was more like it, a nice 62 which could have been better as I parred the two par 5's. The most pleasing thing for me was my 72nd hole birdie, which has put me one ahead of Ian at the top of the leaderboard ATM. A very tough pin to get at, I played a 9 iron which pitched at about the distance that I wanted, but a little right of my intended landing zone leaving me a nervy 14 footer I must have been over that putt for 2 minutes or so? I finally hit it and it looked for all the world that it was going to stay to the right, but at the last second it curled into the cup and I could breathe again There are still a couple of players that could catch me, especially Michael Martin who is sitting at -18 after two rounds, so I won't count my chickens just yet. From experience I know that despite this course's high difficulty, it is possible to go very low if your luck's in, so good luck to the guys still to finish Here's proof that luck plays a huge part of being in the top couple of places or being an also ran!
