-8 with 2 bogeys. Think the leaders will be around -15 or so.
Warwicks (drunken)Tips (for newbs) *Greens are hard and quick. When you think you’ve allowed enough break, add some more. * Hit it short to allow it to run up. Use the slopes of the green as a backstop when you can * I took 4w, 4h, 4i-. You’ll need at least a 3w for one of the par 3s. * The fairways have quite a bit of slope on them. Don’t be like me and hit the middle and bounce off, use the scout cam. * You can’t make it on 16. (Except R3) Go left young man...
Onwards
🤟🏼🇦🇺🤟🏼
Edit - I’m a drunken tool. Went straight into round 2 without changing the clubs I’m carrying lmao. Top 10 will be a murkle 😂
Double edit - Imma play this again with my old profile sober and see just how many shots it costs me lol
-13 thru 2, no chance of a top 10, struggle street for a top 25. Havin fun though 😁😎🤠😉
Finished up -23 for the tournament. Too smashed to know where it will be, but a guess will be that -45 or 50 will win it this week. Really nice course, keen to play my second (BigMTiger 73) profile sober to see how I’ll go and start playing Monday instead of Sunday late. Will still be baked as always, it’s the alcohols that gets me lol.
Over to the RV folks. Can Victor strike back, will Darryl keep his Sweeney like run of scoring going, or will the new boy from the PGA keep up his stellar form with the new clubs in hand? Will old time PGA TGC1 legend Dan harness his mojo and shoot the lights out this week? Will Mike take advantage of his fellow Aussies poor play and take the number 1 Aussie place - or will the pressure get to him???
Only time will tell folks - that’s my official roller coaster ride for the week, will post my sober comparison later in the week, the course is worth another 72 holes for sure.

Anyone seen Isabella? She never came back from Darryl's RV. I saw him on the range earlier when I was bending his putter face out by half a degree, and she wasn't there either. Looks like this 2 wood might be useful this week after all

Playing BCT for the first time this week- finally actually enjoying playing this game outside of the designer!
R1 -9 R2 -5
So many burnt edges in round 2, could’ve been much better. Still, I’ll take it!

A few too many triple breaking putts inside 10 feet for my taste. This is going to be a very frustrating week and I ended up on autopilot after I decided it was the courses fault. I finished a full 7 shots shy of my winning prediction of -43.
Im just glad its over

Played my other two rounds tonight and man, I feel like there were so many shots left out there! -6 in each of my last two rounds. Still, -26 is a pretty good score, and I’m pleased with the results of my first BCT event. There were some bugs on the site with getting my card switched, but it seems to be fixed now, so big thanks to Doyley. Good luck everyone!

The Uber Tournament at Le Petit Diable, would pose a unique set of problems for players this week with a lot of long challenging par 3’s and with the need for a lot of clubs at the top end of the bag. Mike one who subscribes to the theory of always taking all 4 wedges would break his rule for his 1st round this week to add a high end Wood to the bag.
Mike with a later than normal tee time for him due to a persistent flu that just won’t leave would tee off and start with birdies on 1 & 2 followed by par on 3, then 4 more birdies in a row would see Mike at -6 after 7, disaster would strike off the tee on the 8th as Mike would slice it badly and into the waiting arms of the bunker, feeling like he needed to keep his momentum going instead playing safe he would hit his 5 hybrid out of the bunker and find himself in the middle of the fairway, from there he would go onto make birdie and keep his run of birdies going and follow that up with another birdie on 9 to be -8 at the turn. The back 9 would start off slower than the front with par birdie par, Birdies on 13 & 14 would put Mike at -11 after 14, onto the 15th where Mike would play the shot of his round acing the 227 yard par 3, Mike was now on absolute fire making the final 3 holes look easy with 3 more birdies for his best ever BCT round of 55 (-16) and the lead so far after round 1. Mike looked very happy with himself heading back to Darryl’s RV, the look on Darryl and Victor’s faces should be priceless Mike thought to himself.

It’s been a few weeks since Victor and Darryl got to play together, but the tour has issued them a 1:00 tee time on Wednesday.
They were aware that something big was happening out on the course because the momentum of the crowd seemed to be building all morning, and then just like a 2am booty call for Darryl, the roars intensified and climaxed, leaving them wondering what could possibly be going on out there. Guys like PW3, JoJo, Jeff McCord, and Kevin Malone had already played their rounds, so who could it be giving the crowds so much arousal? Surely Hector Vazquez wasn’t back, was he?
As the duo continued to prepare for their tee time by playing cornhole in the parking lot outside the RV whilst hammering their favorite spirits, Mike Georgiades came ripping up in a golf cart and screeched to a halt just shy of running over one of the boards like a ramp. The grin on his face was as large as the Jumbotron in Cowboys stadium, and the cart had barely stopped moving before he jumped out and proclaimed “fifty five b*tches!” Victor’s rum & cherry coke slid from his hand, glass smashing on the asphalt, while Darryl just grumbled a cordial “noice.” Georgiades couldn’t wait to add the next part... “I made an ace on 15! It trickled right in the hole!” Just then, Kevin Malone poked his head out the window of the RV and yelled, “THAT’S WHAT SHE SAID!”

Ernie was clearly disappointed in Shaun's 3rd place finish last week, and was having a hard time biting his tongue. The 1st ever win for Shaun a few weeks ago went right to his head, he had lost interest in working on his game. To continue winning against the highly talented BCT field Shaun's mindset needed a reboot. Truthfully, Ernie was tired of his antics. He was also there with on the bag with Shaun that week he won, and had to remind him of something.... Ernie had a plan, he needed to get Shaun to the range and they were going to the perfect place. Le Petit Diable... just what the doctor ordered, a tough track to humble any of the over hyped skull inflated BCTches in the field this week. (inculding Shaun) The usual quick pit stop to Play it Again Sports for some golf balls was not so usual, actually, it went terribly. Shaun looked out of the window stunned as Ernie stomped thru the doors and out of the store. When he got closer to the car, Shaun's fear was confirmed, he grabbed a 3 pack of Ultra's, a giant bottle of baby powder, and a dozen of fully bloomed Carnation flowers. Ernie climbed/wiggled his 6'12" frame into the car giving Shaun a stern, yet somehow always goofy look, "You know what these mean, back to the basics for you Trayys" he says holding up the flowers in front of Shaun's face. "Fuuu*********** ", yelled Shaun as Ernie laughed and gunned it out of the parking lot en route to the course. Good luck this week fellers!

The Uber Tournament @ Le Petit Diable, Round 2.
Mike knew that he would have to produce another fine round of golf if he was to keep his lead from round 1, Birdie on the 1st followed by to pars wasn’t the start he was looking for but then Mike would hit top gear over the final 6 of the front 9, Birdies on 4, 5 & 6 followed by his 2nd Ace of the Tourney on 7 had him tearing up the course again, 2 more birdies on 8 & 9 would see him -8 once again after the front 9, The back 9 would not go quite as planned for Mike he did enough to extend his lead with a brilliant eagle on 11 followed by birdie on 12, however Mike failed to take advantage of the par 5s on the back nine with him flirting with disaster on 16 hitting the heavy rough twice before managing to save par, birdies on 17 & 18 would see him finish with a 2nd round total of 58 (-13) to take him to -29 for the tourney so far with a 5 stroke lead over Eric Estrada in 2nd.
Highlights from the round below
