Finished at -27 for the week so I expect that to earn me a bump up to CC-A or B once everything shakes out. Currently in CC-C.

A little confused by all of this, Jeff. What does it mean? Just projections/predictions - shows the current round 2 CUT score for each tour (middle column) - and the projected Round 4 score for each tour - so for example - if you shoot -35 total for the promo event - based on the projections - that should land you in ELITE since the cut for that tour is projected at -34. These really don't mean anything - just geek work to give people an idea of where they 'might' land based on their promo event scores.. Ahhh it all makes sense now thank you. I appreciate the geek work and love to see predictions like this. Makes sense too. My shotty play does indicate I'm a CC-A or B caliber player lol.

-7 through 3 rounds. Nothing spectacular but very happy with some of my all-world par saves I’ve pulled off. Come a long way since the soul-destroying, hope annihilation that was The Great Evangelist Massacre of 2020. Playing better in CC event and happy to be expecting solid 65-69’s every round instead of 75+.

Greetings All.
Currently playing CC-D in incognito mode. Been there all season. One M/C. No greenies or reds earned. Solid purgatory. IMO that tells me I am in the correct tour level for me.
I am really enjoying Persephone, lovely course, maybe the best ever authored by the designer (which is saying something considering his portfolio). Through 54 holes I stand at +1, taking full responsibility for some poor decisions. This is considerably worse than my average CC rounds, which are not great to begin with.
Here is the quandary I face. If I finish the promo at around this number AND get promoted I will feel that I will get placed in a tour that I am not right for. If I do not finish the promo event...we that is not going to happen because once I start something I will finish because I feel an obligation to finish what I start.
Just using this platform to air my thoughts, a good cup of coffee helped.
Onward!

Hi! I'm in CC-J and got done with this little event earlier today. A fun course, unfortunately I played on a level that certainly left a lot behind to do better on.
I would have said this went well if it wasn't for an utter blow up at the very start of the second round, which began with 5 straight bogeys, one of them triple. That stretch also involved a four putt and two of the three putt variety. Fantastic golfing, I know. None of my other rounds were anything overly spectacular, but certainly not terrible either. Lined up at -1/+8/-4/-1 = +2.
A bit disappointing, but if my scores are like that, I don't know if I really want to go up a lot anyway! So maybe this is for the best, at least for now. Plenty more opportunities to do well on later.

Utter failure once again. Shot -9 in round 1 which felt horrible the course was playing so easy. Round 2 +3 is my worst tour round yet. I really struggle in high winds but for me the putting has just gotten so much worse since that damn update last week. Anybody else lipping out tons of putts that used to go in now? Swing plane seems way more sensitive too. Stuck in CC-B purgatory forever...

Finished a smidge under par at -2. Should not be considered for a promo but as Doyley said who knows! Onward.

Missed one cut by a shot but am otherwise 1-3 shots from a green mark the last few weeks as I keep getting better. I shot -27 in this event which may move me up to A or B. Looking back at most weeks I would have similar results there as I did in C but would be a bit further from earning a promo mark. Also it doesn’t look like you’ll get a promo but if you do it will probably be because a lot of other players at/below D jumped into the same group with you.

Swing plane seems way more sensitive too. Stuck in CC-B purgatory forever... I'm having a few swing plane issues of late yeah. I have to be very careful, even on the shortest putts it seems. I've missed a few sitters because of dodgy swing lines. On the bright side I've found some manageable XB tempo of late (for now) and so have been scoring decently as a result. -26 after 3 and I'm hoping to get to the mid 30s under par. Need another solid round though.

Just joined TGCT about a month ago. Currently in CC-K. Shot -5 in the promo event, so hoping that gets me up a few flights.
In my CC rounds this week I'm -15 which *might* be enough for one promo mark. Question: Would I carry that promo mark to a new flight or would it be cleared if I'm promoted via the special event? I'd assume the latter but figured I'd ask.
After the holidays, joining the True Swing Tour, can't get enough!

They don't carry.

For those on challenge circuit, did you feel like persephone played easier than a normal week on the CC? I found the greens super easy. Had so many putts that didn't move at all and most pins super accessible.
