Oh brother... So, the first three round I played well, NO complaints except for a couple putts I should have made, but sitting -33 after 3 Only a couple shots off the lead!!!!!!! I go into the fourth round, birdie number 1 and THEN...The fuc*!! flickers must have put some witch craft sh!t on me fearing a NON-FLICKER might kick their pansy, cheating arses...all of the sudden the fast perfect started and that was the end I had three bogies!!!! and wasn't getting close for my birdie attempts because of the long birdie putts. Ended up going -2 for a total of -36. Will still be a top 20 I'm hoping??? Very disappointing considering I was in the top 5 at the beginning of the fourth round. That's golf...Really not making any excuses here at all, just poking some fun at my breakdown. The course was difficult, but scoring -10 or better was very possible each round if you could hit the right approach shots. Best of luck to Daxon and any other legit player near the top!! On to next week...

Well, well, well... dropping like flies, these major contenders.
The Hedgehog - gone. 5th pull this year. 3 on PGA and 2 on TST. Diplomacy - out of the window, and, bar Griffster, the new all time API pull champ.
Crikey. Better luck next year boys.

-20 through two. Surprised to see that I was only 5 behind with the amount of shots that I threw away. I just couldn't get on with these greens at all, even when using the worm cam, I got fooled over and over again. I missed 6 or 7 very short putts, one from 5 feet where everything was telling me it was going to move a few inches left; but somehow it broke 6 inches right and missed the hole completely My swing is definitely improving slowly, I hit it fairly well today again; could have been close to the lead if i'd had just putted averagely.

What a Dip!

Back from my Caribbean cruise and going by last weeks and this weeks threads I have to remove the title of “Designer of the worst course ever played on TGCTours”. Just remember the Championship version is still out there should Dale ever want to piss you off. I saw this fella at the Monkey reserve in Barbados, have a feeling its what Dale thinks you can kiss every week Will see if I can make the cut later tonight.

When do the perma bans start? After 6, 10 maybe 12? I trust admin won’t stand for it long term.

Should have stayed with the Monkey's. -1 and -6. Probably be a demotion strike unless some that make the cut can't be bothered to finish. Did manage an eagle on the 36th hole.

Welp, I decided to get back on the course after a really long break. I fire a 56, 59 to sit -25 through 2 rounds to be tied for the lead somehow. I look at the leaderboard and realize I was a couple minutes late on the deadline. That's about how things have gone for me since the Masters. Think I'm contending for a win and instead it's another no show. For some reason I was thinking the deadline was 4 am eastern like it is on Sunday mornings.

I did the same thing on TST this week, except that I thought I was playing late Wednesday night instead of Thursday. Doh! Midway through my 2nd round it finally clicked.
Good playing! Perhaps the U.S. team captain will take note for the President's Cup...

Decided to play to see what all the fuss was about... you great fannies. Lovely track. VWP Dale 👍
-19 and cut made... cold putter in R2 and a bogey in each 18 when I missed a fast and plugged in a cavernous green side bunker both times.
Knocked it in the water with a F/F tee shot down 36 but managed the eagle with the 2nd ball to hit the number.
Some weirdness on the greens, for sure, and without being able to fully loft, just had to take some medicine a time or two. Other times I thought I’d stiffed it but just ran off an awful big red one, but that was on me.
Maybe it’ll be different in the next rounds, but I found that, with a bit of snail camming, the putts they were able to be read at least.
I should think that the fury from most, and the frustration from myself included is that this is another track which, generally (as a great day with the putter can pay dividends) plays into the hands of those that either short swing, or have worked out “the other way” that enables them to fully loft with confidence and dial the distances.
FWIW - I really don’t think this should be on PGA. It’s not realistic, and has a great deal of forced “trickery”.
True to my TST form, I will probably be total garbage when I tee it up thru 37-72, after showing glimpses of promise in the opening 36.
GL all still competing, and hard luck to those that are out of the majors for the year. My heart bleeds for you, it truly does. Take the time off to perfect your flick / script or whatever it is you continue to do, and maybe next year, you can fool yourself again.

Lol, was partly my idea in getting out there. I've got a strong record in team events but now that would be a bit of a leap of faith without getting the big result this week. Maybe I'll just finish the tournament and post the screenshot.

It'll be me as I'm starting round 3 now. -8 in round 3 lots of birdies and lots of bogies, made some putts that had absolutely no right going in the hole but that made up for some tempo bullshit

Finished off with a bogey free -3. Those fourth round greens/pins/conditions are the worst I've seen on any tour and almost any society I've played in. Hit what I thought were some absolutely nailed on approach shots only for them to still roll off the green farcical
