Played my first round on Saturday, hit an "okay" -5 as you can see from the leaderboard. Had a pretty dreadful second round though, just couldn't get the short uphill putts going at all. Will be keeping a very close eye on the scores as I think I'm in danger of missing the cut.
Really hard to judge what the scoring will be like in comparison to last week!
In anger, I also played my final 2 rounds the same day, played much better, but pretty meaningless if I don't make the cut.
Interesting that FirstBlitzer hit a -8 first round though - figured it would be in the region of -10. I guess there may be hope after all!

Got off to a solid start @ jebel with an 8 under round which I was quite content with as saved some important pars along the way. 2nd round I couldn't get anything goin n finished E in a round that consisted of 16 pars,1 birdie, 1 bogey. Out of frustration onto round 3 n 4 I went straight away n scored 10 under n 9 under there.. The shackles were off to an extent as believe I may have very well missed cut dissapointly with 8 under at halfway stage. Round 3 consisted of 2 eagles which always helps lol but will all count for nothing if I miss cut obviously.. The lesson to be learnt on this course like with most tricky greens is if your approach n putting aren't especially on point you'll struggle to score as well as you'd like as there r putts within 10 feet very missable...good luck out there on the course to all!!

Have I said how much I hate this game? After missing the cut last week had a good first round at 65 followed by a 67..ok -12 should be enough...gunning for 66 in the third double bogie number 18 for 68 wtf which led to a monumental collapse in the fourth round with 73...Have I said how much I hate this game??

Why o why did I play euro this week! Don't like the course ( nothing against the designer ) just can't play it...putting seems all whiffy to me, odd breaks.. Should have jumped across the pond. One round to go but I don't think I will bother playing as I've probably missed the cut see ya all next week

One round to go but I don't think I will bother playing as I've probably missed the cut see ya all next week I couldn't get any long approach shots close earlier and missed too many putts for 1st round -6. The green that confuses me the most is the par 5 17th as I normally end up just past the pin and the break shows left to right but it always goes straight. Figured I'd try a straight putt today but I went with normal lob wedge instead of pitch on the approach and I spun it back off the green. Oh well, see what happens in my 2nd round on Wednseday. I'm assuming the cut might be single digits this week but who knows.

I'm assuming the cut might be single digits this week but who knows. I hear you with these greens. So many times I played for a break that just didn't take. One of the holes, I think it was number 7? there was a clear break showing, but every time it would take a different path. There were other greens with similar phantom breaks too. I should have gone a lot lower than I did, I think I hit the ball about as good as I ever have for four rounds, I have never heard John say "great contact" so much! But I didn't make nearly enough putts to capitalize on my excellent approach work.

I was aiming for -8 to -10 in all 4 rounds, so looks like I'll have some catching up to do with you now Bradley. Think I hit every fairway, was just lousy with approach shots leaving too many 20+ foot birdie attempts. May have to settle on trying to get a top 20 now.

Started fairly well posting a 67-66 in the first two rounds..we will see if that's enough to make the cut. Round 3 I was 6 under after 9 (including a 95 yard hole out for eagle on 4!)..but then took a triple bogey on 12...lets just say the wheels fell off from there and I won't be making an appearance anywhere near the top of the leader board!
Maybe next week...
