Regarding my glitch. I'm standing on the 1st tee of my second round. But my scorecard from round 1 and 2 are up on the site. That should mean I can speedgolf my way through this "new" second round without worrying on my score right? The api should already have verified my score? Yes but you might actually be on your third round currently and it's just saying second when you get to the green check the speed 183 is the 3rd round

Well, since starting out the season in CCD, I've had plenty of ups and downs. I toiled along with everyone else, hot streaks, cold streaks and finally something clicked. I started finishing in the top 20s, then top tens till I wound up here after about 18 weeks. Now on the Web, playing with the big boys I realized one drastic and humbling difference between the Tours, and that is the dreaded "CUT"! Last week after a miserable performance in the first two rounds there was no Friday or Saturday to play. No real interest in who was leading or how the scoring was going, a void, a black hole in the game itself had swallowed me whole. I told myself to practice for this week, "it won't happen again", I sternly muttered to my disinterested cat. After four rounds I thought I had my mojo back enough to compete this week. Got home, settled in, soda at the ready. Baby sleeping for the moment, cat still disinterested. First hole here we come, and BAM! BOGEY!!! I looked at the controller, I looked at my hands, oh the betrayal! I struggled throughout the round, birdie, bogey, par and so on. Finished a disheartening -1. The CUT was looming again like a black cloud. I was crushed. I spent the next two days avoiding the game, just watched the scoreboard and read the posts for this weeks tourney. I was too embarrassed to post, my score being what it was what could I possibly add that would be of any interest to anyone. I hit rock bottom. Then Thursday afternoon it came to me as I loaded the game. I had waited till 3 hours before the score deadline to play my second round, I had waited and watched as most of the field had posted their scores days before. A feeling came over me, one that I've never felt before, a twinge of power as I knew where the field stood, they were unable to change their scores or current position, but I, I and a select few had the power over our own destiny in our very hands! I HAD BECOME A WATCHER!!!! I teed off, perfect drive! Nothing could stop me. After 5 holes I was -4... Dark energy flowed through my hands! The same hands that led me to a 28 putt nightmarish first round were draining 20ft curling rainbow putts, things of beauty that ended with a white sphere disappearing into nothingness. I played on, never thinking about the cut (that's a lie), I played the winds like I was in a symphony, the greens leaned to my balls desired path!(?)! I could do no wrong as I lined up my final putt at 18, did I birdie it? I can't remember, the zone I was in has taken my memory. Finishing the round I sat back in exhausted jubilation as I had done what I thought was impossible, I had thwarted the dreaded cut with an -11 performance that brought me back to the game, the game I love. Well I made the cut by two strokes and it felt pretty damn good, I could go on to finish 70th, but I'm ok with that, I made THE CUT!

Congratulations Wh0amiagan! This week's course was very tough. I can definitely understand the dark thoughts you have been through before the energy came back to you!

Like u I carded a mediocre first round and my second was a bit better but nowhere near yours. Great recovery - good job!

I'll be using my exemption from a couple of weeks ago up on the PGA next week. Anyone joining me? I'll be playing PGA this coming week too. Tried twice now on Euro, both firm and fast, failed miserably both times. Saw Euro had another f/f again, signed up on the other side! Good luck, may the putts drop and the bounces be kind to all trying out this coming week.

OK..so here's the deal I work 11pm to 7am...needless to say sleep is a figment of my imagination. Anyways..enough small talk. I don't ramble often but dammit I got something to say. So..I'm leaving work..and living in Canada it's either winter or it's hotter than hell..no in between..we Canucks are tough..we just deal with the sh%$. So..I'm walking to my car and I hit a patch of ice..and I'm ass over tea kettle. Right down on my right arm..slammed it all to hell..can barely even hold my drink. We'll get to that in a minute. So...have to fill out an injury on duty..sore as hell..i do it and drive home. Stiffness sets into the arm..dammit I need a drink..I pour myself a 4 finger shot of vodka...mmmmmmm tastes good...and then another....one more...I think it was 3..who knows. So basically I'm pailed a virtual puddle..feeling good..who cares. Hey..why not cue up TGCTours...you're a hero. So..I cue up the 4th round of this fine tournament...well low and behold I ram in a hole in one on the 1st par 3. Don't ask me the hole..I'm hammered. Don't look at my score either..i have an excuse. A hole in one...wooohooooooo. Hopefully someone sober can play my ghost and upload the video because I'm pretty much screwed right now. At least my arm doesn't hurt PP31 Out Update on the arm had X-Rays and 2 doctors and a surgeon looked at it and all had cause for concern. See an orthopedic surgeon Tues for a followup to see if the bone is either cracked or chipped. Possibly surgery.
