S6 - Promotion Event #5.1 - Locker Room

[Doyley]

Take 2!

Good luck - the final available slots won't be known until after this week is finished.  I'll post the projected slots as it stands now as soon as I finalize the week just ending.

In the meantime talk about your rounds here - will be lots of Pro Tour cards available so break out those Master clubsets!  Much less opportunity for Pro clubset players this go around since our tours are jam packed in the challenge circuit.

Edit:  Projected slots

Hoping to climb up from CC-C, after 2 rounds I sit at -5. Gonna have to play better in rounds 3 and 4 that's for sure. Finding this course to be very challenging! Helps when you can make those birdies inside 10ft.

Those greens were diabolical. Finished +3 for the tourney I believe. Wasn't much room for movement anyway. Good luck y'all!

[joeemcc]

sitting at -18 after 3 rounds, hoping for a bounce back after being demoted from CC-C the week gone.

by the way, round 3 of this promo event is brutal.

Thanks for the heads up. I feel like this track is pretty brutal, slight misses slide off the green, pins for R1 and R2 all seemed to be on a pretty decent slope. What in particular was it about R3?

R3 you're just looking at stronger wind the entire time after two rounds of almost no wind

[thetaffman]

Round 3 killed me, the hole placement was constantly on slopes and I couldn't make a putt... Scraped a +5 to drop to - 7

[CTLegacy]

Played a practice round with R1 settings, some pretty tough pins and some sloped cups make it pretty tough. Pinseeking with high winds is pretty difficult as well. Need to have good course management and give yourself a better angle to the flag.

[Celtic Wolf]

Looks like a short visit for me to Kegusta, even par after 2 rounds so I don't think I'll be moving anywhere.

High winds weren't the biggest issue for me, but pin positions were very naughty. Managed -4 in R3 but that was an almighty struggle

Can someone explain how this works?  I've read the Rules, Info and Policies and still don't get it.  In the above example how is it determined which 17 players from CC-D get a slot in the promotional event?  Is it just the top 17 scores from that flight?

The top roughly 28 players playing masters clubs will move to PGA.. regardless of what tour they are on. Their spots will then add into the projection numbers for the tour they left... so if 10 people from Euro get promoted, that would leave 31 ish spots on Euro (the original 21 plus the 10 promoted). The next 31 players (not already on Euro) playing masters clubs would be placed on Euro and the process repeats itself down the line

Huge help, it makes sense now.  Thank you!

I don't think a -14 total with Masters is gonna get me anywhere

I just want to say that hole 15 on Kegusta is an absolutely beautifully designed hole from both a look and playing feel standpoint. Props to the designer! (sitting -3 after R1, which involved a lot of hero chipping to save pars)
