Very respectable round 3 and an under par round is always a good achievement so well done Scott! Yes I’ve been trying not to think too much about where I’m sitting as I’m not good under pressure 😄 The more I can think oh it’s just a game and just have fun the better I do and then you glance at the leaderboard and it all goes pear shape 😂 Hope you can continue to climb on your last round! Well then, just have fun and if it doesn't happen this week, there is next week! Wise words well said 👍

And stunk up the place on R4. Even on the front, +6 on the back. Off to practice for next week!

Well I promise I took your advice and just played round 3 without a care in the world but the plan never worked and finished +1 😄 I started very bad on the front nine and was +3 but managed a couple of birdies on the final stretch to pull it back a bit. Winds were tough and I was forever leaving myself between clubs but all my fault and nobody else to blame 😜 Can only but hope for a better last round.

Disappointing last round finishing +2 to be even through four rounds and at one stage I was 3 under but made some silly mistakes and double bogied two holes so no promotion this week and back to the practice green 😄 Good luck all of you finishing your rounds 👍

Yes I think that’s the key to have fun and lately been taking it too serious and trying too hard and need to just relax and enjoy.

I'm happy to have both of you back this week just because its fun to have people to talk and compete with that are my level! However I will be elated if either of you promote. Hopefully we all will!
I missed last week's cut but somehow did good enough to avoid any demotion marks.
Because of the hurricane and halloween last week I didn't play any at the end of the week. Remember what we were saying about how you lose it if you dont' practice each day? I felt it when I played my R1 yesterday! The start was definitely rocky, but I leveled off and played even on the back nine to keep it at +5.

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. The Tale of Two Golfers.
I birdied the first two holes, got a par on #3 (should have been a warning), a bogie on #4 and then the wheels fell off. In the water twice (two different locations!) on #5 for a +4 and then a +4 on #6 as well. 3 bogies and 3 birdies for the rest of the course. Except for two holes, it went exactly as I hoped (even par was my goal, so -1 would have been great), but sadly, pretty sure those two holes will count. Next round will be to ensure I don't end up with demotion marks rather than trying to save the cut. Amazingly, there are 25 of 90 players below me and the current cut is only 2 strokes better than me, so R2 will be very interesting. Good luck to you guys, stay out of the water!

That water is a bear! I have had a couple very lucky shots that just narrowly missed it.
My R2 started a bit rocky again, but then I had an eagle on 5, and that gave me a confidence boost to get through the rest of the round with a score of dead even. Right now I'm under the projected cut, so hoping for the best!
Good luck all! Play it safe around that water.

Great work - very surprised to see where the cut is right now, but lots of golf to play still. If I can play to my potential, then I might be OK. Hoping to live up to your greatness!

Well don’t Josia and Scott for most likely making the cut! Great work both of you 👍 I’ve not had chance to play yet because of work but will try this evening but if not for sure tomorrow and hope I can fly the flag also and join you guys through the weekend!

Sorry Scott and didn’t realise you had played one round but nice steady second round and you’ll make the cut 👍 Played close to what I wanted at +2. Sure would have loved a par round, but at least I didn't have any huge blow ups (I did 3 putt three times, frustrating). Did miss a couple stupid putts that might just well make the difference. At least I am out of demotion mark territory! Good luck to you guys!

Well managed to fit a round in and what a rollercoaster that was 😄 Started with three pars and then on the par 3 fourth hit the pin and inches from a hole in one snd then a birdie at the next. Then come hole 7 the par 3 and hit the rocks and ended in the water and drop zone was 75 feet below my feet and was gasping for breath due to lack of oxygen and plopped it again short and in the water and had a 7 on a par 3!! So from -2 to +2 in a couple of holes snd thought the wheels would fall off but managed to bring it back steadily to even par coming to the 18th and went in the water again for a 6 on the par four so still ended up back at +2 to finish the round. Phew I’m out of breath from playing and writing this 😄 Good luck on your next rounds guys 👍
