I apologise for the delay in starting this weeks thread, lighting fried my modem yesterday and am only just back online. Anyway, this weeks event is our one and only regular season major on The Korn Ferry and we are playing Erin Hills, by rcr master theclv24 , and what a monster of a course it is. To win this week, all aspects of your game need to be working over all 8000 yards. A fantastic course for a major, good luck all, have fun and think of me as I enter my new WiFi password in about 100 devices.

So what’s different about a major? Higher purse?

So what’s different about a major? Higher purse? Yes lots of fake money to spend on fake items. Also the fake glory which attracts fake women bringing risk of fake social media stories about your fake lifestyle.

I've been away for a few days but might get the chance to play tonight. Had a little look at the scoreboard and wished I hadn't!

I've been away for 5 weeks and played round 1 just the same because I missed playing soooooooooo much. Erin Hills is a personal fave, along with almost any RCR made by theclv24. Quite happy with my -8 that featured only one drop. I know it is a middling score, but if I can better it in round 2...maybe my first made cut on KF? Need it as I have 3 reds currently. Onward!

Lovely golf course, and friendly conditions, unfortunately I think there’s a glitch in the system(maybe 2) but I don’t want to be the ‘spoiler’ so will bring it up later in the week.
I took the correct clubs this week but left my putter in the hotel!
Prediction- someone at least equals the KF record round this week

-21 halfway
Not sure what to think of that; normally I would be elated with a score like that but after shooting -14 in the first round, I was really disappointed with -7 in the second. All putts dropped in the first round and none in the second. Surely it’s enough to make the cut though?
Best wishes Frans

Best wishes Frans Similar experience for me through 2 rounds: -14, then -9... including a 3-putt on 13.

Like others, I found the first round setup conductive for good scoring, the scheduler here just does a fantastic job. Unfortunately I left a couple of shots out there so could not join the -14 gang but can’t complain about my -12.

Round two was also similar to others, putts were not dropping as much, even missed a four footer but on the next hole I hit this
A couple of more birdies followed for a - 9. Again happy with the score but even happier that for the first time in months I put together two bogey free rounds. -21 at the cut.

It’s been brought to my attention that we are playing from the front tees rather than the back tees as well as playing pinset one for all four rounds. This has been confirmed on Xbox and PS4, I have not had a chance to check PC yet. If it’s the same on PC, we can continue as normal as no system has an advantage. For this, I can only apologise, there must have been a error in the submission process, unfortunately being human, we sometimes make mistakes, even me, I know that’s hard to believe but it does happen. If any PC players can confirm that it is the same on that system, it would be appreciated. Doyley bringing this to your attention just in case we have a problem on different systems. Again, sorry for the mix up.
