Started with poor rounds of -6 and -7, recovered well with -11 and -12, overall -36, with alot left out there. Quite pleased after the Bethpage Bloodbath last week, hopefully a red mark will go!

After a rough couple rounds of -6,-7 a solid -12 third round has me breathing a bit easier. These greens at 187 are pretty tough. Anyone else notice the pin on 8 in R2 seemed a little suspect?

In my second round I hit -3 with 88.9% GIR, and in my third it was -10 with 83.3% GIR. I think that says everything about the difference the speed makes! I carded a -2 in my final round which has left me -21 for the tournament. With 2 demotion marks to my name already it should be enough to keep me here for another week.

Trying to remember the hole, was it the pin hidden behind some trees? I managed a birdie, but I recall that shot from days ago as I had a nice bit of fade to get within 15 feet.

Round 3 was solid for me, 60 (-13). Agonisigly close to two eagles on par 5's and had a number of birdie putt chances I didn't take but you can never grumble with a low score like that.
Kudo's to Lewis McMurdo who shot a 55 (-18)!

ODDLY so many missed Eagles and still I'm in 11th place with MASTER clubs with a -28 with a -13 not added in yet WITH, hitting the water on the last hole of the tournament. The whole DON'T BLOW IT . . . . . EXTRA SLOW doink doink splash ! and then I par it. I THINK -42 is the lowest I've ever scored on 4 rounds. Oddly my driving has not that great but recovery was right on.

It was on a yellow slope, I played a practice round with a buddy that is currently ranked top 10 in the Euro tour. He was surprised they let that one go. It was his opinion that it was an illegal pin. We all play the same course so fair is fair but it took me 4 putts in R2 and that hurts lol

Sometimes some yellow slope near a pin became visible only if you look at it from a certain angle..probably who rangered the course missed that angle. It can happens

Round 4 was hard work, not because of the course setup but my driving accuracy went down the drain. I felt like I was doing everything like normal but I was just finding the rough so often.
The 11th hole even had a very slow/fast (can't remember) but it hooked massively into a big ditch so walked off with a bogie.
Rallied to finish with a 62 and my first eagle on the 18th but I suspect I feel like a lot of others where a lot of chances were missed.
Potentially another top 10 though, hopefully I'll keep the green ticks this time!

First 3 rounds were uneventful to say the least. I left the best for last carding -14 (59) in the final round to finish @ -31

MAN!! you would think a -42 would be good enough for a promo mark with MASTER clubs BUT NOOOOO! sigh! I had the same score on cc-a and i don't checked the final standings but i finished somewhere over p50, with way more than 20 master clubs players who scored better than me Is the problem when a course is played in too easy conditions..you should be a killer, scoring nothing less than -12 every round, but i definitely have not this ability (i also screwed up my round in 4th round, that was the one played on easiest conditions)
