1st week I missed two promotion marks by one shot, this week missed one promotion mark by one shot....crazy how it comes down to one damn shot over 72 holes and over 260 shots!

Anyone else noticed that right now we have a girl at the top of our leaderboard? It feels like seeing a unicorn!

Some really impressive scores so far this week. A bunch of sub-60's in round 2. I've missed a promotion mark by 1 stroke in each of the first two weeks and looks like it could be the same this week too. -6, -9 (-15 total) so far (26 putts each round makes it pretty clear what I need to work on though ) Best of luck to everyone else!

Second week in a row where I'm going to miss the cut by 1 stroke. -7 at the halfway point and its sure looking like things will settle at -8. Been hitting the driving range the last few days and I think I've found my swing again, so I'm hoping for a better showing next week.

Been hitting the driving range the last few days and I think I've found my swing again, so I'm hoping for a better showing next week. I'm sitting at -7 as well... if we don't make it, I'm gonna blame it on low participation! In all fairness though, I do think top X and ties like on the Pro Tours works better, as it's more straightforward (if at any point you have X people in front of you who have finished R2, you know you're out). With the current 60% system, there's this false sense of hope that the cut line might fall back due to a rush of bad scores coming in late.

Got a surprise promotion after finishing T-2 in my CC-B debut (I like playing with ghosts on my same tour so this messed me up in rd 1 lol) and it totally got in my head. Was all over the place in rd 1 ended up with a 65 after pulling myself together on the back 9. Round 2 went in saying to myself I need to shoot 58 or 59 to give myself a chance on the weekend in this tour and shot 60 to leave myself at -19 at the cut. Hopefully I can just play free and smooth in rd 3 and 4 as the conditions toughen up a bit.

Nice score for 2 rounds I think this course will give lots of low scores, -19 will definitely be in contention. I need to play well if I want to make the cut, good news is I shot an 8 under round on my first practice round playing faster than normal... We'll see.

Man this is SUCH a gettable course but I just Left so many shots out there on the greens. Only -14 after 2 despite hitting 83% of greens. Such a let down since I’ve been playing pretty well. You can’t slack off at all at this level. Hopefully all the late players don’t move me outside the cut

Shot a -6 through 2 after falling apart on the back 9 with back to back double bogeys.
I completely dismissed any chance of making a cut but I was shocked to see I'm hanging right on the line. Multiple times now I've finished one stroke under the line so maybe this time I'll catch a break.
Would love the chance to play a couple more meaningful rounds on this beauty of a course and also get rid of one of these two ugly red marks next to my name.

Looks like we're headed for a 3 way "playoff" finish. I missed a fairly straight 24 footer for birdie on 18 that I knew without seeing the leaderboard was gonna cost me the win. Could just feel it lol. Terrible back 9 for me in general after going -8 on the front. Ah well, loved the course and congrats to everyone on a great week!

Hey guys just got bumped up from B - anyone finding this week's course really tough to see? maybe it's just the default practice rounds, but I am really struggling with the lighting...
Looking forward to the competition!

Looking forward to the competition! Welcome to CCA and congrats on your promotion! I've played two practice rounds and yes, the default lighting is in fact too low and in some holes is really hard to see, particularly affected me when reading greens and lies...
