This week we are off to Donald Ross GC by joegolferg the template king. This course stood out to me for its layout and subtlety. If you are unfamiliar with Donald Ross design, or template design, I would highly recommend you check out the course thread I linked to above, because Joe does a great job of highlighting things. The course might play a bit easy for elite, but conditions are up. I am sure we will still see a cutline somewhere between -16 and -20 like most weeks currently. So keep firing off those birdies and good luck!

Amazing course. Deserved a way deeper run in the CC contest IMO. Hope you Elite guys enjoy it, Joe did a cracking job. Also RIP WhatAboutAmeobi's time on Elite

A wonderful course. Breathtaking beauty and diabolically tricky. Reminds me of some women I knew . HahHa
Been on this tour since last year and only made 2 cuts in a year. At -24 at the 36 hole mark. So looks like I may sneak another one in. Really reminded me of the Chicago Golf club that we played on tgc cc tours last year. And never been really competitive on this tour. But love the course selections more than shooting -15 under every round like others

Still waiting to get my PS4 back, if it's not today or tomorrow I'll probably be missing a third week. I wish they'd hurry up, I revisited wgt a bit but compared to this it was boring as anything.

Always enjoy Joe’s creations but this is one of my favourites, love the short Par 4 12th, danger on the right because of the beck, the rough on the left isn’t easy to get out of because of the mounds. And his Par 5’s are never easy birdie opportunities which most Par 5’s are.
I’ll be back for the weekend after posting a slightly disappointing -21 across the opening two rounds

Excellent course and setup! My putter may have let me down one or two times too many on the back nine in R3/R4 as I sit at the end with -44 and wondering if that gets a promo mark or not. But seriously, nothing to complain about for the event outside of my own small mistakes.

-20 cut line?! Bunch of animals. But that brings the average score through 2 rounds needed to make the cut for the season to -19.7 through 7 weeks.
Scores needed to make the cut so far this season:
Arthur Dunes -21 (winning score -61, top ten -51)
Redtail River -16 (winning score -55, top ten -42)
Yellowgrass Prairie Club -20 (winning score -55, top ten -51)
Rhoah Ruins -22 (winning score -56, top ten -51)
Moti Paina -22 (winning score -56, top ten -50)
Del Monte Heights -17 (winning score -50, top ten -45)
Donald Ross GC -20 (winning score -52, top ten -45)

I know making the cut is really tough but I do enjoy that damn near anyone can win if they’re within 4/5 shots. Which happens to be like 30+ players each week.

Looking like I'll have my PS4 back early next week, so I'll be back to missing cuts again soon 🤣

Well turns out the PS4 is stuffed and can't be repaired. Found a near new one on marketplace nearby though, and grabbed it this arvo. Just waiting for the game to download again and I'll be back into it from this week. Glad to be back "on tour" again!
