64-60-62-62 - 36 under total.
Played a lot of really good golf this week, tons of birdies, a couple of eagles, even a chip in or two. Putted much better than last week in the main.
Sadly, each round was tainted by a couple of horrible errors that i wouldn't expect a CC player to make. Missed 6 footers, three putt from 20 feet, two very slow downswings on one hole, failing to get up and down from 7 yards. Some awful decision making. And probably amongst the worst FIR percentages too, i somehow missed 7 or 8 when they're 100 yards wide mostly.
Nice track, some yellow around a few pins but the green speeds kept it mostly under control.

One of those weeks for me where if the hole was 1 centimeter bigger I would have scored 15 shots better. Just maddening misses over and over that looked like they were going in 2 feet short of the hole. I made one stupid mistake where I thought I had pitch swing and hit a full lob wedge from 50 yards away, otherwise I had a solid mental game and just got let down by some bad bounces and close shaves.
I probably would have been happier just playing southwind, didn't seem right that one of the weeks on PGA tour where driving accuracy is at such a premium we play a course where you can spray it just about anywhere off the tee.

Well I had to play all my rounds today because we're leaving for vacation first thing in the morning...I wish the best players have already played because I have this false sense of security now...think I ended up -36 which is currently 7th on ps4...now I know this will probably end up like 30th or so when it's all over, but still played fairly well. My putting held me back this week. The greens were tough with all the big breaks and yellow slopes near many pins. Missed numerous birdies from inside 10 feet. Hopefully I end up in the top 20 or so when it's all said and done. Will always take that against the best of the best. See ya next week and best of luck to all that still have to play.

-10, -12 start for me. The course is a good one for me this week...I needed some room on the fairways. Now let's see if I can keep from sh*tt*ng the bed the last two rounds.

Remember when we used to talk about disparity amongst platforms? A quick scroll of the top 30 shows me 1-xbox in 14th, and then 2-PC in the 20's. Literally every other player is ps4, that's wild.

Christ... Like a morgue in here! That's what you get when half the field is banned I suppose!
Might have a knock tonight just to knock off some rust. Any thoughts on the course?

I'm really enjoying the course this week, at least after two rounds. Playing very well, my swing is in better shape this week. Round 2 could have been really special, but a couple pars near the end made it only a really great round. Sitting at -28 after and -12 then -16. Due to my recent API failing, I'm posting video of all my approach shots, here they are for those who feel like auditing my play:

-28 through two, I'll take it Hit the ball better than I did in TST earlier on. Started hitting it more consistently the longer it went on. I messed up a few of the shorter holes when I had a pitch in, but made up for it by possibly sneaking a couple on the field on some of the more difficult, longer approaches. Putter was behaving itself today too; holed some nice ones and had a few that held their line despite looking as though they would finish low with 5 or 6 feet to go (scripting?) Course is pretty nice, enjoyable for the most part, but hitting long irons into a 12+ mph wind gets a bit old. Wind direction for the par 5's always seemed to be hurting too, taking some of the fun out of going for them in two.

Winds: High, Med, Very High, High (if I remember correctly).
Seemed to be mostly in the same direction too. This is a setup that I think I would have enjoyed more had we not been bombarded with high/vh winds so much over the last month+, because it largely works for this course, it's just rinse-repeat for me, though.
GG to everyone shooting all these really impressive scores. It's hard to imagine a time when I was on that level given how far I've fallen off, kudos guys.

Me too, if I'm honest... Unless the BS is fixed, I won't be buying it though. There will obviously be new BS, but if the BS we're dealing with on the swing in 2019 isn't rectified, they can swivel. Much more to play!

Scores were pulled. Whoops! Swing was all over and played sh%$ anyway. ๐๐ Ready for August! lol same and I literally finished dead last. ๐๐ Amazing how you got demoted (by not finishing events), yet weโre such a good player before the new api rules came in, then you did so well again that you got promoted, but now youโre getting your scores pulled now that the push / pull api checks are there for you. If your swing is an advantage, youโll get pulled, regardless of how badly you played. I would have thought that you would have used your time on Euro to try and fix your swing, but since you sandbagged to get there by not finishing events in the first place, maybe just being at the top of the board is more important than finishing where you should, fairly. Maybe Iโm being cynical and youโre just spectacularly unlucky. Keep up the not finishing events and Iโm sure theyโll be delighted to have you back on euro again soon.
