Lol, well done Bill! Good job you got that Bo because the cutline has shot up much more than usual. -14 was 45th yesterday, looks a goner already today. Even -15 isn't 100% safe. You're good for the weekend though I've played round 4. Hit some nice approaches and gave myself an awful lot of chances but missed a few more of them than I would have liked. Particularly over the first 6 holes, think I had a good chance on all 6 and only -2 to show for it. But I can't complain, bogey free final round and a pretty solid week on what was a very fun course in fair conditions. This game is enjoyable when you put all those ingredients together 60, 65, 67, 63 for a -33 total. Seem to have found a bit of confidence in this controller just in time for the playoffs, hope it lasts. Shame last week's super inflated prize fund has skewed the money list or I would have been well inside the top 50, I'll just have to keep making cuts. You got me by 4 Jamie. Round 3 nothing would drop. Round 4 much better. -3 and -10. On to next week. 😀

Course is set up to have some low scores, as we are seeing. Glad guys are doing well. As for me? 52 total putts in first 2 rounds. I think that is all that needs to be said

I am so bad at this game. Actually, in R1, I was doing OK. I've been designing a lot on PC, so, naturally, I had a slow downswing on the first hole back on PS4. After that, a bunch of birdies and a couple of mistakes left me at -9 and in good shape.
Blew it.
I was +2 through 5, and E through 12. Ran off 5 straight birdies to get to -14. Birdie putt from the right fringe burned the edge and I missed the comebacker. Bogey, -13 through 2, and another missed cut. I think that makes me 0 for 8.
I do not know how to play in wind. I have no idea how much any amount of wind affects my ball flight in any direction. So, I appreciated the low wind in round 1.
I'm also a poor putter. I have no system for reading break. It's always a guess. Plus, I manage to miss straight putts.

I really like this course. A gem, imo. Fantastic job NIGHTS7ALKER!

Again I run to the tee to get my rounds in. I am really playing like garbage. -6 first that was generous. -10 second where I missed 3 med putts for birdie. I either sucked or squandered a great opportunity throughout. Only some fortunate misses and a couple long putts put me in for weekend. I see some of you went low rds 3,4. Hoping to show up moving day. GL to all.

It's always a guess. Plus, I manage to miss straight putts. Yeah those straight ones drive you mad. My Achilles heel are short putts with left to right break. The one I missed on the very first hole of the week was only 5 feet, little left to right breaker, pushed it straight past the edge. Infuriating! I've always enjoyed playing the wind though, I tend to play against it with some shot shaping rather than with it and it's always worked quite well for me. Unlucky on the missed cut, sometimes it's fine margins. I've missed a lot more than I've made and often around the cut line. At least there's only one more week you can pick up any demo marks in.

I’m amazed the -14 folks that were on the bubble last night made it through. There were at least four first round guys that had -9 to -11 when I checked Late in the evening. Lucky stars should be thanked. 😃

Is Mr Laforest playing a different course to the rest of us? That's some shooting, I strongly suspect he'll show up pretty well on the Euro Tour next week too.
I am very happy with what is looking like being a top 20, it's been a while. Hoping I can keep this up for the last few weeks of this game. Some nice results for a few others in this thread too, good work!

Hats off to Mikael who I think has the largest margin of victory I have ever seen. I’m thrilled sitting top 5 right now and am 18 back! That is insane shooting.
Bring on next week!

I'll take a second top 10 in three weeks!
Double demo a few weeks ago after forgetting to finish the last two holes irritates me. Never done that before.
Next week let's gooo!

Finished -31 for the week so not too much complaining but it would be nice to string four rounds together or even 18 holes. I’ve got the tempo blues.

I'll take my second made cut in a row. Small victories but it is what it is!
