Played several practice rounds, probably too many. I seem to fold like a lawn chair when it matters. Was consistent this week at 64,65,64,65. Can’t seem to go bogey free. shot as low as 58 in practice and high of 70 so guess I’ll take it but won’t be enough for a promo mark. Think I 4 putted on the last par 5 on the 4th round.
Loved the course. Well designed and nice looking. Struggled with pin 1 on hole 10, 12 and one more I don’t recall. Seemed like it was placed exactly at the top elevation point on all sides. Fair but very challenging if your not aware of it. Hopefully will do better next week been spending slot of time working on 3 new courses so might struggle.

Likewise for me Bill , knew I’d made the cut but was probably too far back for any promo marks so slapped my way round the last 2 rounds. Looking to next week hopefully for a better performance. Course didn’t suit me this week clearly. PS thanks gents , I was feeling a bit lonely 😂

So, I had some great scramble pars but also missed a couple very make able putts. 144 greens grrrr. No bogies and one eagle on way to a -7 start. I’ll take that. Good luck to all yet to play. As promised, first round was windy so watch those OB markers lads and lassies.

Happy to have found some manageable XB tempo of late.
-29 (and still bogeyless) after R3. I'll sit on that for awhile I think.

Rounds complete for this week & I’m a happy happy man. Had a dodgy week or so last week with tempo & putting both slightly off so decided to play the first 2 rounds of the Promotion Event as a warm up - average ! Came into my CC-B rounds and absolutely nailed it. -13 , -13 , -10 & -11 for my best (possibly ever) TGC total of -47. There’s nothing I can add but to wish everybody else still playing GL and enjoy !

There’s nothing I can add but to wish everybody else still playing GL and enjoy ! That's some very good shootin'. I finished -36. Really shoulda been 38 but missed a couple simple birdie putts thanks to dodgy swing lines. Could be all academic really if I manage a strong showing in the promo event. Started decently with a R1 -10 in that.

Not overly bothered as I’m enjoying watching the leaderboards every week instead of just checking for the cut line as I did for most of 2019 in PGA & Euro.

Shot 60 round two. Still bogey free. Really attacked the course and went for all the risk reward holes. Had two unforced HB slows but saved par on one and made bird on the other. Lucky there. On to the weekend. Long as we are talking Promo, just knocked about the first round, -7. Ditto ewanh1 above, not really looking to jump up to my level of incompetence. Lol.

Completed my final round last night to finish -33. Got a network error and now all rounds have disappeared as if I hadn't participated in the event at all! I was -23 through round 3 which I played earlier in the week and these correctly show up on the tour leader board here, but round 4 hasn't registered and presumably won't now as the game thinks I haven't even participated in the event. It will let me start at round 1 again, but that's not right. I fear I'm doomed to pickup another double demotion for failing to complete the tourney. Anyone seen this before? What should I do?

Enjoyed the rounds this week. Started off strong with a 60 but struggled comparatively speaking on the 2nd with a 64. Day 3 was tough for me really challenging pins especially on hole 10 but gladly took another 64. Realizing I would probably have to shoot 63 for a promotion mark I did a lot of practicing and never good get there. Decided to change drivers and while I was not accurate at all my distance to the greens improved and seemed to have better lies. Ended up getting lucky on a couple early on and made a really nice streak and missed a couple easy putts at the end. Could have scored a 55 out there today but will gladly take the 58 and get the double promo points since I probably won’t get promoted on the other promo event. Good luck next week wherever You may land!
