Very very very happy with this round .... Holed out from 202 yards on the 10th and that seemed to kick start my round

Still bogey free after some clutch par putts on the front 9 especially .... Couldn't have played much better

Tough round 3 in those winds .... First bogey of the tournament but again some clutch par putts in there to finish under par

Another bogey in round 4 but I honestly don't think I could have played any better throughout the tournament
-24 total and if that gets beat then I doff my cap

Great shooting, Gav!
If I score +24 for the tournament, can I get a mirror image of your winning trophy? π
Great job! Everyone playing for second at this point.

Nice to see my name at the top of the Bay Hill handicap leaderboard. Pretty rarified air for me! Spyglass was the anti-Bay-Hill tournament. Finished at +16. Iβm glad itβs over.
Still working towards the top of the scratch leaderboard, which if gav and daarvan keep shooting like they have been, will be never. π

great to see new names on the PC leaderboard.Β welcome @andersnm !
Also,Β does anyone know, is there a way to turn off the score thing that shows up after each hole and before the next tee?Β I looked but couldn't find it if it is there.
I know it sounds crazy, but I play better if I don't know what the up to minute score is.Β Β I just want to play my game and not know everyone else's till the end.Β Β I try to look away when it comes up, but every match, at some point I forget and accidentally see it.Β LOL
I do the same thing sometimes! Usually when I've started bad or I'm a long way behind, then go on a really good run, and I just want to concentrate on keeping the run going for a few holes. Like Paul said, just gotta get used to spamming the advance button

Rushed through the CC-A and TST tourneys, then took a bit more time on the USE before heading away for work tomorrow morning. Didn't do me much good...-9 total with 2 x -4's bookending a couple of ordinary rounds. Nothing speccy to report. The long par 4's are very tough. Happy to hit the GIR. Looking forward to seeing the final results...my -17 winning score prediction was blown out by gavlaar124. Well done sir. Cheers

Off and running with a -2 first round. It will be awful tough to chase down gavlaar124, but it won't be for lack of trying. Made a lot of good swings in round #1, but the putter let me down. Too many bogies.

Can't remember if I ended 19, 20 or 21 - but not enough to beat Gavin for sure. Just all round decent with no fireworks or blowups

The leader on TST at Wentworth today is -16 after one round π and we all thought Gavin was bad π (joking mate!) Math and Mouse Click golf. And also that thing I always whine about (multiple simultaneous ghost balls rolling all over the green). My guess is that a bunch of the top guys donβt ever leave themselves 10-20 foot putts because the loft box turns it into target shooting. On the other hand, kudos to them for working out the math that carefully. After all, we are playing a tarted-up spreadsheet! π I just prefer to hit the range and suspend my disbelief in hopes I can get immersed enough to feel like I might if I was actually out on the course. The USE style of play lets me do that.

Round 1 at Bellerive was horrific! Everything that could go wrong did. Bad bounces, lousy putting and bad decisions. I struggled to get approach shots close and had long putts for par. Finished R1 at +12. Final 3 rounds were much better. Round 2 was highlighted by a hole in one on # 6. Wasn't enough to pull me out of the depths as I finished Even par. Round 3 was +1 and the best round was Round 4 with a -2. I was hoping to finish the tournament close to even par on a beautiful but very tough track, at least for me lol. Good Luck everyone and Congrats to Gavlaar for an incredible tournament! R1 +12 R2 E R3 +1 R4 -2 Total +11

I may have to break down and play gav's turn-order ghost. I haven't so far because I don't like being humiliated, even by a digital specter. But maybe I can get some insight into how I can get better.
