Gonna be a birdie bonanza. Got in 4 rounds early with 65, 62, 59 and 58. Would have been a top 5 in all previous web.com tournaments, but I think I might be around the cut-line after two rounds with too many poor choices and misses in the first round. Predicting a winning score of -62.

I saw a 52. 52! Ok, that's ridiculous.

I honestly don't think -62 is going to be close. I think it's going to be under -70 to win. And it could get close to -80.
This course has no defence without wind.

Makes each and every putt that burns the edge even more painful! Where's the whiskey?
Even though it's an easy course, it's a great layout. Beautiful track with an awesome finishing hole.

While I understand that the course isn't very hard, I don't think -70 is going to happen. Most of the really good players have moved on up and the remaining players are generally inconsistent. -17 to -20 is hard on any course because there is virtually no room for one erroneous shot. To do it four straight rounds is nearly impossible. Perhaps this is wishful thinking considering I think I may have a chance this week, but congrats to anyone who comes close because that's quite a feat. Anyways I'm really think I'll have the low round of the tournament and the low round record when all is said and done and I'll have my exemption, so the win isn't everything.

I think you have to post a score in excess of -70 to win this one and it will be done by a PS4/Xbox player
especially if they go out in calm winds... i played all 4 rounds in approx 8mph winds and shot -54 with so many short putts missed
(-62 already leads on the pc side)... this course is totally defenseless, all par 5's are easily reachable and lots of the par 4's are just short pitches for birds. good luck to all..

I knew during practice that this was going to be a real low scorer. There is a bit of water around, and if it gets windy it could be interesting. My 4 round score of -39 would normally see me jumping for joy, but here it could be around the cut line. My first round of 64 actually left me disappointed as the wind was light, but I got better after that. I was hoping to break 60 in round two but just missed out. Could be some records broken this coming week! .... but you have to hit every fairway and play approach to within 10 feet on every hole. It may be an easy course but it brings its own pressure!

Are you guys posting these rounds in low winds only? I played in double digit winds and mostly cross winds, where the course played entirely different. Shot a 67. Played another in calmer winds later and shot 60. So I guess my -17 may not even make the cut. Oh well. On to next week!

Personally, i always play my 4 rounds on the first Saturday when the tournie goes live in whatever winds i am given... which on this ocassion were always around 8mph.. you will always get wind waiters, which will generally be the more competative players, a major bug bare within the game, just play, enjoy and try to improve week to week

Hopefully I can make the cut with that and a 61 because my last round will earn me an exemption

Sunday morning, 9.00h German time, coffee in front of me, I played this weeks tour. All four rounds with wind between 7 to 12mph, but it was ok. After two or three more coffee my end result: 60+61+61+64 in total a -42. Is it good enough ? For top 50? I don t think so, maybe for top 100......

lol. no conspiracy theory here i can assure you, all i meant by that remark is that in the 1st 4 weeks of this tour, the top 10 players have been mainly from PS4/XBOX, PC players have only broke into the top 10 on a couple of occassions

By the sounds of it ... I can just leave my suitcase packed ... looks like I can check out of the hotel early, and hop on the plane right after the 2nd round ----- again!
LOL
