Welcome to another RJ Wils joint. This week we play his latest. A track with plenty of traps and some tiny and challenging greens.
Running into our last couple of chance to get some movement marks before the first promo event of the season in 2 weeks. Good luck everyone.

Nice course which I was unable to enjoy this week, my frame rates were jumping all over the place and my laptop was just not able to cope which meant my tempo was shocking
-2 +4
5th last week to probably dead last this week😩 Good bye promo marks ☹️
Be interested to know if anyone else on PC struggled with the FPS also

Making my Elite Tour debut this week and it definitely ended up better than it seemed it was going to after the first 4 holes. Had a very fast swing that pull hooked my tee shot on the par 3 3rd into the trap and somehow missed the par putt. Then 2 putted for par on the par 5 4th. Played my butt off the rest of the way to pull out a 59 to lead by 1 after 1. As of last night, nobody on ps4 had broken 65 in round 2 so curious to see what the wind and pins look like. Hopefully I can stay consistent and my retinas don't burn reading these putts. Lol jk it's a pretty fun course with alot of bounces that can either make you or break you. Is it a bug that "dusk" "overcast" turned out to be noon at the equator and clear?

Like many others, was not as successful in round 2 as round 1. Was not making clean contact and took me a while to get my putter goin. Shot 65 to sit at -20 for the cut.

I was in a bit of a rush this week due to travel plans and had to knock out all four rounds back to back before leaving - unfortunately, that day happened to be an off-day. One word to sum up my rounds: inconsistent. -10, -2, -12, -5 to finish 29 under...if I happen to make the cut. Not the opener I was looking for in my first round here in Elite but on to enjoying the holidays with family and back to the tee's next week.
Really enjoyed the course despite my lack of ability to play it properly. The weather settings/color scheme gave me a few issues lighting wise but maybe it's just my monitor settings.
Good luck to those yet to play!

-12 -10 first 2 rounds. Played really nicely both rounds albeit 2 silly bogies in there. Made up for it with 3 chip in eagles on the 2nd round on the par 5’s. Very similar course to the Kinetic tour win I had 2 weeks ago so if you could stick to these designs every week I’d play alright 😂
Will play last 2 rounds either tonight or tomorrow so we’ll see where we end up but good luck to everyone who’s playing this week! 🏌️♂️

Awesome 1st couple rounds man, hopefully we have a fun little duel over the last couple rounds. Good luck bro!

I’ve certainly not had 4 eagles in one round yet so that was fun 😂 That pin on the last screwed me over for the bogey though! Hopefully some more low scoring rounds for the both of us to finish

Sitting at -31 after 3.

-5 -10 -11 -4 -30
Probably would have taken -30 after my round 1 but I played great in rounds 2 and 3 to help make another cut and aim for a top 15-20. Round 4 was a let down, missed 5-6 very makable birdie/eagle putts and then fell apart a bit on the back 9. Tee to green I’ve been playing well but if I can go 4 rounds where I putt well anything could happen. Hoping my man Mike can pull off a win in his first elite start, he may not be around here long.
Thanks to the designer, the course didn’t really grab me early but the more I played the more I liked it, certainly makes you think every shot. Good luck to everyone still to play

Managed to finish with -38 total. Slow start round 3 but clawed back a -10 62. But last round my timing was just slightly off, missing par 5 fairways killed my score. Tough with the high wind but still should have made a few more birdies but finished -6 66.
If it’s not enough I should get a couple promotion marks and see what next week brings. Good luck Mike and everyone else!

Good luck Mike and everyone else! Thank you bro! Mannn these drives on the par 5's specificallt are stressful as hell. Very well designed tee shot areas. Pressure is really on on every tee it feels like.

R1 -5 R2 -5 R3 -9 R4 -7 -26 total. Played much better over the last 36 holes only making a single bogey. Chipped in on 18 in round 2 to make the cut line. Good luck to everyone still playing.

-36 for the tournament. Currently tied for 4th which should hold up and get me my last promo mark onto Platinum tour. It’s been fun competing with you guys and look forward to seeing you again when you move up. Good luck to anyone still finishing up their rounds
