Played your ghost Jacko - and if you had same wind as me then -6 is godly. Had 18-21 winds most of first round (even think I saw some 23 gusts in there but that may be just my imagination) and shot what is by far my best round in TGC this far to get a -1. Some mad scrambling in there.
Second round was 14-18 with the occasional dip to 12. Had it as deep as. -4 but then two stupid bogeys 15 and 16 put me back.
Going to be really annoyed missing the cut if/when wind dies down later in the week. Really needed the money to have a shot at entering the WGC and these two rounds were significantly better than the play that got me a 12th at Jebel....

Really needed the money to have a shot at entering the WGC and these two rounds were significantly better than the play that got me a 12th at Jebel.... Generally a bit lower than that for me (13-17) with the odd gust towards 20 and the odd calm moment where it went to 9-10. The most annoying moments are when it gusts whilst the ball is in mid air and you lose 3 or 4 yards (which is enough to put you off the green on some holes) 17 was horrible for me, just couldn't get my head round it. Ditto No 7 which i bogeyed 3 rounds out of 4. The wind is everything this week. If it stays like this the cut could be close to even. If it dies then my 6 under will look decidedly average.

If wind stays over 12mph then cut may be well over par I think....

Just put in my 1st 3 rounds before going to work... going to be really salty when I miss the cut, because I would've made a nice push up the leaderboard on moving day with a 3rd round 59. But ya 69-66 start going to cut me out of the weekend.

Similar conditions in 3rd round,putts just dropped.

+4 after 2 rounds. Oh I wish for the -10 per round I can't blame the wind. In strong winds I hit Even par and in calmer winds (read 6 hours real-life later) I shot +4 MooooooSE

Had a very nice -10 in the first round. Followed that up with a sweet -4... Couldnt make a put if I was outside 1 meter!! But overall score isnt to bad I see.
Had no 90% shots, but in the second round the of-the-club squirting started up. It seems it gets worse if you play a couple of rounds in stretch. Missed some easy greens, that shouldnt be possible.

I'm nothing if not consistent with 3 64s in a row to put me at -18 after 3 rounds. i should think -12 will make the cut based on the chatter in here.

I sweated blood to get to -12 after two rounds so should it not make the cut i might as well give up altogether lol. Great shooting everyone, a little better than i expected it to be if i'm honest

Absolutely plagued by 92-97% shots on both drives and approaches, the latter being the real killer. Started on the back nine of the 2nd round and stayed consistent through the end of the tourney. I spent the whole tourney scrambling for pars when 100% shots would have given me very make-able birdie opportunities.
The links theme is garbage and needs to be fixed. I'm convinced it's some framerate buffer issue that "interrupts" the controller inputs even if just for milliseconds, enough to screw up the calculations. I'm not the only person who experiences it on a regular basis. Just for giggles, I left the tourney to play another themed course, and guess what - consistently 100% (only one shot @ 98% - a chip). Returning to the tourney, right back to sub-100.
Despite all that, I posted 62-64-65-64 (-25) ,on only one bogey, which should be a pretty high finish. Could have been soooo much more without the buggy bull$@@#.

Finished my two last rounds, in 7-12 mph, so I think I got lucky windwize. r1 was a 60 !! r2 was a disapointing 68, couldnt make a put if I wanted to. r3 was a 64 r4 was a 63, so altogether satisfied. That 68 on round two is the one that ruins it, but hopefully I will make the cut with the 60 on round 1. Gotta take a printscreen as for the first, and probably last, time Im on top of the leaderboard! Total score -25, so sorry illidium, I saw someone at -26...

66-59-65-66 -24 total...... 1st Rd. Was -4 thru 7 and feeling ok. The holes 8.9.10 said come at me and are me up. 3 bogeys in a row seen me return to earth. Mediocre from there with 2 birds and a bogey the rest of way... :/ 2nd Rd. running red hot with the flat stick and a few neat bounces and well a 59 is the result and 4 off the pace... 3rd Rd. much the same as Rd 1... -5 thru 8 then bogey and double bogey to follow on 10.... Man I hate that par 3. Made a few birds to level out at -5... 4th Rd. just a boring mediocre round 6 birds and 2 dropped shots. Sank nothing and got some stiff bounces. Had a dozen putts I reckon over 30ft. Struggling with slice and poor chipping aswell... Tuff course with tricky conditions. Enjoyed the challenge for the most part. Winds were 10-13 give or take Rd 1. Rd 2 7-12. Rd 3 10-13 again mostly. Rd 4 10-15 at times. Agree with prior comments that course can be had with low winds. Some good scores by a few rolling onto leaderboards too now. -24 hopefully top 30..... Hoping

64-62-61-63 Total-30
Had a great start round 1 was -5 thru 5 think this was easy then reality kicked in with a bogey each at 6 and 7. Went off the boil from then struggled back to finish -6. Winds 10-15
Round 2 wind picked up but managed to get everything out of the round i could of. Scrabbled pars well and chipped in for the odd birdie for a -8. Winds 15-20
Round 3 played brilliant tee to green but putted average. The only round i could of got more from. Missed 5 realistic birdie chances to post a double digit round. Still happy with -9. Winds 8-14
Round 4 similar to round 2 in the way i got pretty much all from the round with the way i played. Did not hit it quite straight enough and left nasty puts and chips from run off areas. In the club house with -7. Winds 8-14
Tough 1 to crack this week with those winds. Scores across the leaderboard lower than i expected. Well done to all
