Another week of utter mediocrity......interspersed with some REAL rubbish!
Most of the latter came in R1, where a stunning -3 ensured I had minimal chance of making the cut. -10 in R2 provided a glimmer of hope (but still no expectation) Back to the dross in R3 with -6, before another semi decent -10 to finish at -29.
Frustrating.

Bad tempo + good putting in round 1: -9 Bad tempo + mediocre putting in round 2: -6
-15 halfway and missed cut, I think?
Playing with this course four times this week and, so far, scoring better in TST... 🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️
Have fun all, Frans

Im thinking I ruined my chances of a good finish this week with a -5 RND 1. Frustration clearly took over after I made a par on the 3rd hole, the first Par 5. At least I came back with a -14 RND 2. I think theres going to be some low scores this week.

Hello.
I'm too old for this. I need a break. I just choked heavily in R1 and shot -6 with a 9 hole streak of pars and a bogey between holes 4 and 12. And then I shot lights out in R2 with -14. Will play my remaining two rounds when my blood pressure is back to normal.
Cheers and good luck!

R1 -10 R2 -14.
My hate for sub 175 greens in this game is constant.

Easily worst -9 I have Ever shot in RD 1. Got my first albatross of 2k21 on hole 3 and only managed a -4 on the front 9 🤦♂️

Such a bad course, how did this get on tour? Looks bad, plays bad, smells bad. (joking if that wasn't clear)
I honestly don't know what's going on. Played 4 good rounds earlier in the day, and then had such incredible tempo problems when I played the society event. Either I'm in my own head or the controller is broke or I just suck right now. Yeah... definitely a broken controller.
I'm going back to Elite. I don't like this tour. Elite is the best tour on here. I am choosing that tour, no it's not because I'm about to earn a 5th demo mark. No. I prefer the Elite tour. (also joking)
Good luck everyone else rest of the year.

R3 -11 R3 -13
-48 and one behind my bois Ryan and Chris in so far.
Spewing about R3 with two water balls throwing away 3 shots. 4 shots dropped over the whole tournament won’t do it.

Looking like I am likely to make the cut on the number once again this week. Also the driving distance value is showing this week (official course and all).. sitting at a robust 137th/140 at the moment. Ha

Am mostly sure I will make the cut so I just played my last two. Finished up a consistent -7/-11/-9/-8 for a -35 total. Not near challenging the leaders, but early goal is a top 50.

Hello. Luck has not been on my side yesterday. Usually, when achieving a good shot, the attempts that just miss the target and those that stay close to the cup roughly compensate each other. Yesterday, however, many approaches caught the bad slope by an inch, even though I repeatedly told the ball to bite, stay, or sit. Since, in addition, I still cannot cope with supposedly flat putts that have a hidden break, my scores turned out worse than my game felt. As a result, even though I almost achieved the goal I set myself for the remaining two rounds (around -15 to finish in the mid-minus-30s), I am slightly disappointed now because my game felt good enough to get a new Platinum personal best. Cheers and good luck all!

What an altogether underwhelming experience that was. 2nd MC of the season, setting my new personal record for any one season - though not the type of record I was going for...

I also finished with a total of -34.
Lots and lots of putts that lipped out, or broke when I thought they wouldn't etc...
The shame is my swing plane and tempo have never been better, so I don't know if I should be disappointed about not making the most of it or happy that even when rare bad shots get badly penalised and easy putts get missed I make the cut!
Hopefully I can keep up the form and have luck on my side in the following weeks and eventually sneak in a top 10 by stringing 4 good rounds together.
