After a fine display last week, earning a fast promo to J with only one mark, I missed the cut! The game really simulates the ups and downs of golf pretty well.

Been playing quite well recently and managed to get one promo mark at a time and eventually make the move from CC-K to CC-J. A bit rarified air here. Have to see how it goes.
Course this week is deceptively tough. Been fighting through the first two rounds, but did manage to make the cut.

Well done - I’m also part of the new intake- unfortunately I was talked into getting a new set of clubs by someone who pointed out the distance gaps in my set and the lack of distance generally He meant well but I played my TGC rounds with the new set and ended up with the worst rounds I’ve played all season, a missed cut and 2 demo marks So I’ve been painstakingly trying to recreate what I had before- they may be bog standard starter clubs but I kind of know what I’m doing with them!

I am still playing with the default set of clubs. Reached a comfort level with them. For those gaps in distance, i have become somewhat adapt in either increasing or decreasing the loft to try and reach the sweet spot in the middle.

Working on consistency. Currently inside the top 10 after 3, highest position in months. No more "blow up weeks", having goals like that add value to the game, instead of just point and swing, point and swing.

My first ever event win!!! Great course this week. My putter was on fire, so that helped a lot. Onwards to CC-I

I played my first round in the We-Ko-Pa Challenge and what a rollercoaster with 9 birdies and 4 bogeys for a 66
Good to see more of a test with some tricky holes in high winds with fast greens - will be interesting to see how the scoring is

Well the wind dropped for last three rounds and it was actually pretty easy, although I didn’t take advantage until the final round where I was an inch away from my first 59 🙄
I may have missed the cut anyway after a dismal second round 70 in still conditions

Not sure why, but I am a bit surprised at the cut line for this weeks tourney. -10 looks to be the cut. Played my first two rounds without looking and leaderboard, and while I did not play great, I thought would be comfortably within the cut line. Well, it looks like my -10 just made it. Playing better tee to green, but my putting just sucks this week. Aaargh.

Boy, this course and I just did not agree. Round 1 was a disaster - felt lucky to escape with a +5. Everything was just "off". Could not read the greens to save my life, missed fairways, etc.
Round 2 was actually okay. Played 17 of the holes in -4, but managed to find the water TWICE on #9, which led to a quadruple bogey and a E for the round.
No chance of making the cut. Onward to next week!
(After playing my rounds, I guessed the cut line would be at E par. Looks like it may be -1 or -2.)

I was fast promoted into I after a solid -33, now sitting just 1 inside the cut line at -2 after 36, that's golf!

Haven’t played a TGC Tour round in ages. Decided to give this week a go and shot an opening rd -10 (62) to start . Good for a tie of 6th ( last I checked )

Calling on Gary Smith! Tried to friend you on PSN but you have your settings set to private. I was “hoping” that perhaps we could play our 4th round together Friday evening ( assuming you haven’t finished yet). Thought it would be cool going into the final rd as you are sitting top of the leaderboard and myself sitting 2 back in 2nd. Let me know if this is something you may want to do.
