Thanks!

I practised a couple of rounds and can't see myself doing that great for the next tourney. Hardly any of the pins were flat and there's lots of trouble off the tees if you don't hit the ball exactly where you want. Still looking forward to it and seeing how everyone else does.

Is Vancouver Classic invitation only with some requirements to be invited? Cause there is no link to register for that tournament. I can register for Discover Oregon Open, but no link to register for Vancouver Classic.

Played all 4 rounds today, wind was ok, between 3 to 12 mph. Scored 63, 67, 70 and 61, total -23. I hope my first two rounds were good enough for this times cut, crossing my fingers

It will be a short week for me! Had to deal with 10-18 mile crosswinds and I could not keep the ball in the fairway. I am not fond of the course. 67 and 69 will send me practicing for the next tourney. Good luck to all!

Played first 2 rounds so far. Since it was my first tournament here I was dealing with nerves on the first 5 holes or so, but then settled down a bit. Missed a lot of fairways and greens early, and missed a couple of easy putts later on, but managed a 65. The second round I put one in the water going for the green on one of the later par 5's (ended with a bogey there), missed two easy putts, but had a chip in and one putt around 30' that went in so I figure that evens out. Finished round with a 62.
Also, am I correct in assuming that we can't enter scores until the tourney officially starts on Monday?

Well....Yep, I choked. The pressure was just too much. I've been practicing the course since I got my exemption from week 2. I was feelin good about my chances but as soon as I hit the first hole I forgot how to play this game. Doubled the 1st, bogeyed the 2nd and 3rd. Ended the round with a 72. Gained some of my composure for round 2 and shot a 66. Guess I'll be heading back down to the Champions Tour where I belong.

Leaderboard says the cut line is 70 this week, wonder why it was changed. I thought the higher cut line worked pretty good for this tour, allowing more folks to play the weekend.

Looks Like I will miss yet another cut! Damn winds started off with a 15 MPH head wind ... Highest was 19 MPH, lowest was 9 MPH ... If it wasn't for bad luck I'd have no luck at all ....
forth tourney and the 7th straight round that I start off with unreal winds ... I can't catch a break ... I struggled to finish with a +5, and currently find myself at the bottom of the leader board ... Damn ... golf is fun ...

I played all four rounds at one time and wind started on around 4 mph and my final round I played in wind between 10 - 17 mph. And the results correspond to this change, so 59, 62, 63 and 62. Finally I am happy for -38 and possible sponsor exemption to Euro. It is very nice course where you need exact and wise selection for drive and green approach landing area, different wind level = different club selection. Thank you Dan Herbert.

I'd feel like I won the lottery to start a tourney with low winds ... and this course was one of the reasons I started designing !!!

I played this course 8 times before starting the tourney to make sure i was well practiced and ready. BOOOM, 4 putt the first green, 3 putt the next! The second round was just as awful and pretty much sealed my fate when i dumped two shots in the water on 16.
I've clearly missed the cut here but played all four rounds anyway 72,76,67,69

Well no reason to torture myself anymore with this funky course! I don't think I would play it again ever ... (unless I luck out and sneak in the back door and make the cut - which I seriously doubt posting a 76-72 (+6/148) ... so my bags are packed and heading to a course that is actually quite well designed and fair - even in high winds!
Meaning I will miss the cut there too ... as everyone will tear it up!
