10 days on the KF at no shortage of drama. First I’m late to the tee last week and missed my first two rounds. Played anyways and received two demo marks for withdrawing from a tournament I technically missed. After some discussion with the KFC my demo marks were removed but with a sharp reminder that there is no code in the game for stupid. All right I said. Going to play my first two rounds this week in Sunday and no foul ups. Shot an okay 63 and brutal 65 and thought there’s always next week and pretty sure I’ll be demo free. But now I see I’m tied for 48th. Is there a chance -12 will make it? My first week trying to project a cut. Like the course as well just really hit the ball left in round 2, putts included. 12's should be OK but what do i know! I also got caught under the 'I'm Stupid' rule this season, stood on the first tee and before i hit a shot i realised i had Pro Clubs in my bag. Them's the rules, no ones fault but our own buddy

Agree that -12 is safe. The last 3-4 weeks around 145 guys have been playing. So atm there will not be a lot of p,Ayers coming in. The second round is no pushover. Guys that shot -7 to -10 in round one are just not matching that in round two. Myself included. So all that put together says book your room for the weekend.

Going to clean the gorse out of my grooves, hit the range and try to cure the 30 yard left tee shot. Pretty psyched actually.

Wake up this morning to see -11 made it! I’m shocked. Was feeling good after R1 but my round 2 was so bad I had to put myself in timeout. Here’s hoping for a good weekends worth of rounds.
Good luck everyone!

I shouldn’t have stayed at the pub and I really should have left the barmaid alone. I said I was going to the range to fix the 40 yard push but no. And what happens around the turn. 3 tee shots OB/water. Great way to throw away 9 birdies. Well Portland and then my hometown.

But I don’t think it was bad luck. Korn Ferry is a blast. Love the pressure of the cut and the competitiveness. My first event. ( officially )

So i really don’t consider myself a good player in very high winds but on a links course you have to expect they are coming. So R3, hole 1 and BOOOOM a hole in one on the par 4 and that starts off a great -11 round. Following it up with a -6 with 2 rough bogies and I’m pretty happy with -17 for the weekend. Hoping to carry this into next week.
