After a shameful W16 I've changed my "weekly golf routine" - instead of playing (almost) weekends only, focusing on the tournament course and RRCC Tour for relax, I decided to play as much as possible even after working shifts. No matter how tired I could be I need a lot of experience in every possible situation and mostly I need my break-reading on the greens to become second nature I think, after just a week, it slowly starting to pay out - this morning I felt good about my game, didn't need to "warm up" too much; did just a quick run on Dinosaur Valley GC to confirm the feedback I had on my first practice round on Thursday. Then played all four rounds, one after the other. R1: 64 R2: 63 R3: 65 R4: 65 -31 for the tourney which I hope will snag me a TOP 25/20 - everything better will be a blessing. Winning score -IMHO- will be around -42/-46. More importantly, besides a bogey per round [very painful], I felt good about my tourney and I played consistently which is a very welcome improvement

Strong shooting Andrea! I purposely chose PGA's course for my third exemption attempt this week over Euro's Dinosaur Valley because the difficulty. I think you're right that you will easily take top 50 with a 31 under, possibly even ranking in the 20's.

Hope you'll cross the pond sometimes (or I will ) so we can compete again like in WEB earlier this season!

-16 will get cut, definitely and -32 will be easily within exemption, you'll be fine. Its a tough course, the greens can be very nasty. Or haven't you got an exemption yet gavlaar?
Just realised its still weekend lol, my bad.

Been averaging around -7 per round so if I can get that to a -8 or -9 come the tournament I'll be happy

-11,-8,-10,-9 (-38) total. Solid tourney for me this week. Played pretty steady.. Best I've putted consistently over 4 rounds for quite a while. greatt game! I made a number of eagles throughout the 4 rds, including 1 on a par 4, might have being 10th, didn't jot it down Despite having played well this week I still made a number of basic errors, but all in all I played solid, 1 bogey I think. So happy with my score overall. Dinosaur Valley is a course I overall enjoyed. Even in practice.. Ok the design isn't flawless in some areas but overall you can hold greens despite them being quick...I found myself getting par on several holes and being content..mainly the 12th hole.. a hole I remember as it accounted for my only bogey. The wind was pretty low throughout.. Rarely reaching double figures from memory.Surprised we didn't see a higher avg of wind in a tourney where there wasn't a 4 pin set up.like last week at conservatory a higher avg of wind would have mixed it up a bit..oh well. In later weeks hopefully we'll see Mr.Wind return more frequently I'll conclude my post this week by wishing you all a good tourney. REMEMBER!! 37 under would b a great score!!! well done to those of you shooting low out there thus far. I expect between 40-45 under to win this week.... Oh go on then I'll call -45.. #lovebeatingpug #ridingthatwave #greatgame

Cut number 7 missed wont be here for the next two rounds If it's the case u miss the cut here Les, dust yourself down n go again next week.. I've missed a few cuts myself this season so far. Its not ideal at all,however you can't change what's happened but u can try and effect what going to happen in future tourneys..Next week let's hope it's a positive tourney for you..

I may be underestimating Ian and Bradley and the other beasts here, but I don't see someone going that low this week. I'm calling -42 for winner with your score in the range of top 5.

I've lost count of the number of putts that are just sliding past the cup cant seem to get any to drop at the minute. Lots of long range puts just slipping past the hole so frustrating. Don't talk to me about TST I've decided to knock it on the head.
