I know it's early days, they are only round 1 scores and I'm sure the cream will rise as more people input but I am surprised to see a score of -7 see you in the bottom half of the standings!
Thought it would be a good few strokes lower than this! Obviously plenty of practice has gone in over last few weeks and even the best player on this course is capable of only hitting -7 at some point!

True that, but I wouldn't say a 1st round -7 is out of contention by any means.

I think if you come back in with a -7 for the first round then you are probably going to need to.average -15 across the last 3 rounds to have a chance. It will be better for the next tournament if we can get the locker room open beforehand where scores can remain hidden if people want them too and then we wouldn't know if a certain 1st round score is going to struggle or not

Some seriously good scoring going on! Never thought I'd be wondering if I'd make the cut!! I should do, and it'll be interesting to see everyone's consistency.
Love it though - such a brilliant thing from TGCTours.

I did already read something posted about the guy who shot -17 and I wish I hadn't. Spoiler tags or like you said a Locker Room would be very welcome for helping us filter out what some of us don't want to know until afterwards. True a -7 1st round may not be enough to come back and win, but contention, for me anyways, is a top 25 finish. I have no delusions of grandeur of having 4 (round) miracles happen in a row.

I was Even through the first 3 holes and thought surely I would be getting left behind. I was hitting some terrible shots, too.
I was able to turn it on, though, and got on a serious roll on the back 9. Was T7 as of my finish this morning.

But the player went on to talk about their following rounds including their 4th round. Again, I have no problem if some want to do such as we all get excited to report, but for many of us we would rather remain in the dark as the tournament progresses. The idea of having a separate Locker Room (spoilers area) would accommodate both.

Going to run some more practice runs tonight as best I have had is -14!

Any thoughts on where the cut may fall?? I didn't play that great in round one (66) but rebounded a bit in round 2....thinking I may miss the cut by a stroke or 2.....

I've got a feeling it will land around -16 or -17. Probably 2/3 shots lower than I thought it was going to be pre tournament. Some crazy scores being shot on this course!!
