Went ahead and did my rounds for the Dave and Liz Memorial. Shot -35 (-11 -9 -9 -6). Kind of choked on R4 with some bad putts and hit it into the water on one of the holes (real bonehead move there). Made a late run on the back 9 but couldn't close. Really liked the course. Gave off some Pinehurst vibes. Was a real challenge with the wind up in R2 and R4. Best of luck everyone!

Greetings CC-Eers. Had a quick stay here on my fall through the ranks a month or so ago. Had an out of body experience last week to get promoted back to CC-E.
Finished first round at -9. Like the course - left lots of shots out there. Onward to the next three rounds!

Going down to F from not so long ago in D as will unfinish this one.

Good three out of four rounds. Shot a -2 in Round 2, which really killed me. Ended up at -31. Hope to get just one demotion mark/ Will have to wait and see what the remaining players shoot.

Finished 80th this week. Got rid of my last demo mark. Clean slate for what looks like a really hard course next week.

Well, I began my career here on CC-E and over 4 years later, I’m back.
Didn’t play too badly, but definitely could’ve been better. Those greens are brutal, and the pin positions are really tough to get at, especially in round 4.
R1 -4 R2 -5 R3 -5 R4 -4 Total -18
Don’t think it’ll hold up very well.
I did manage to avoid the total blowup, though. Not a single double bogey, and not too many bogeys either. Just a ton of pars all four rounds. I did manage to make two chip in eagles on par 4s...
Round 2 Hole 16
Round 4 Hole 13
Really nice course, love the Midwestern feel. Not a big fan of the setup, though. Especially round 3. If you’re hitting Pro clubs, you can’t hit the 18th green in regulation. It’s just not possible. I tried going driver-driver and still landed well short. Can’t even imagine how it’s playing on the BCT... also, throughout the tournament, a lot of pins near yellow. On shorter holes it’s not as big of a deal, but on a 213 yard par 3 where you’re hitting long irons or hybrids, it’s just dumb to have yellow half a box away from the pin running away from you (specifically talking about hole 6 in round 4)
Ah well. Good luck guys.

Sorry to say but that course sucked. Got the vibe but it was all of the worst bits of Bethpage/Oakmont/Merion joined together. The first two holes were just awkward doglegs around the tree line, random holes with enormous greens and an out of character finishing hole.
I'm all for a challenge but the greens weren't designed with any imagination, the only thought is to add random crowns and have all slopes as close to yellow as possible. That paired with ridiculous pin positions (hole 8 in round 4 especially) made it awkward with little reward.
Planting was pretty poor with multi plant areas going across on to green fringes and pancake flat bunkers.
I played well for the first two rounds sitting at -16 then just got so bored I got fed up. -23 to finish so not too bad but when have a wealth of unbelievable courses eg Jasmine a few weeks back, why play a track like this?

Well I played like garbage this week. -14 (-8 -1 -4 -1) isn't going to save me from a demo mark I believe. Felt good about this tourney after round 1. The -1 in R2 didn't bother me so much because the conditions were tough. I got a triple bogey on one of the holes in R3 and that pretty much sealed my fate there. R4 was a mess with a couple of random very slow swings out of nowhere and like 3 three putts. Oh well.
I think I'm ready for a fresh start on PGA Tour 2K21. Hopefully we get some refinements of the system and a better solution to the master/pro club situation.

Tough course. Did not play to what little strengths I have in this game. No easy putts, that is for sure. Averaged 66% greens in regulation for this course, which definitely doesn't help.
Finished at -16, which currently is one shot above demotion mark. Hopefully that will hold.
Lets see what next week brings.

Gonna be a total birdiefest this week. Relatively low winds all 4 days, especially round 1. Don’t know how this course ever ended up on CC-Pro considering Am is gonna totally tear it up... ah well, still a nice and relaxing week after a tough one last week.
R1 -12 R2 -10 R3 -14 R4 -9 Total -45
I was bogey free until the 70th hole of the tournament. Pressure got to me lol. -45 definitely won’t be enough to win, too many short missed putts (that 1st green is cursed) but I’m still very happy with that showing, especially that 58 in round 3.
Good luck everyone!

Finished -40 (-12 -10 -9 -9). I missed SO MANY close putts in R3 and R4. I'm not even sure -40 will clear my demo marks. Yikes!

Definitely some low scores this week. Shot a -10 in the first round and am currently in the lower half of the group.
I believe this is the same course played last week in the CC-Pro society? Shot a -35 for fun last week and was in the bottom half of the CC-D group.

I'd rather see a struggle on the leaderboards..so a good round is actually rewarded...
