Looks like you guys were right. Gone from doubting a promo to thinking I might sneak a first win since TGC19 😬 That was some pretty great shooting in the last two rounds, I didn't think it was that easy. I finished 66,65 to get to -32. Was very rusty so I'm not unhappy with that. Hole 12 was my friend all week.

Yeah I was impressed with your score given you haven't been around for a couple of months, and yeah not an easy course. A very nice one though! I'm finally feeling more comfortable on the razer. Had to change from left thumb to right. Can't move the left quick enough lol finally starting to build some new muscle memory so can hopefully kick on now.

Well, I guess I don't have to worry about those pesky promo marks after R3 & R4. My putter, which was on fire in R1 and R2 went completely missing in R3 - 27 putts total, with the front nine being particularly annoying. Hit every green - solid proximity too, not like I had a bunch of long lag putts - and only made two 1 putts. The inability to get anything in the hole caused me to press more on my shots the back 9 and I ended up with a lame -5. R4 was played the next night and once again, tempo was good and putting was crap. Oh well, I expect I'll finish mid-pack after the weekend debacle this time and hope to be able to find the range with the putter before next week.

Think that'll be just short of any promo marks but should be a cut safely made. Really sweating it out! Good luck!

All those 30 or so -60 scores haven't activated third party data sharing yet 😬 haha thanks! I think I'll get pipped but that was a great week back on the main tours and true sim. Nice rounds yourself in both too.

Pleasantly surprised -20 was enough to make the cut as I felt like I left some shots out there. Some of those pin positions were pretty unforgiving. I was remarkably consistent though going -10,-10,-10,-11 for a decent start to the season.

Started off earlier than I'm used to. Trying it this way because I might struggle fitting these first 2 in on other days.
-8, -12 for -20 after 2. Surely that gets over the line... the course was playing kinda tough so should be good. Needed that with red marks looming over from week 1. Was feeling comfortable from long putting, but then the standard shorter ones were nervy as heck. Odd how that goes sometimes.
Cheers, good luck!

Decent start then blew the 2nd round where nothing would drop. Going to be a long season of 2 rounders unless I find some consistency ☹️

Seemed like the cups just weren't regulation size the first couple of rounds. I'll be very lucky to make the cut this week. If I do though, 62-61 the final 2 rounds might move me up some.

-13 and -11 to start which I’m quite pleased with. Always nice to see your name at the top of the leaderboard even if only temporary.

Overcame back to back 3 putt bogeys on the front 9 in the first round to post up 61 62 and -23 at half way. Must admit, quite surprised to be in nose bleed territory on the leaderboard with that, thought the course was easier than last week's. My ground shots were much better this week but those greens bit me once or twice. Can't complain though (unlike some 🤣).

Well after fluffing my lines last week in missing the cut, I'll make the cut this week - currently sitting at -21 after 2rds. This course, particularly on the back 9 into strong winds, appears to play really long. Missed a few scoreable opportunities on the back 9 in rd 2 by not setting my shot in the right place to counter the wind. Still, I've rds 3 & 4 to play this week which is an improvement on last week. Good luck to everyone still involved.

Better week this week, -18 after two rounds so should get through to the weekend. I'll play before then though since I'm playing a 36 hole foursomes championship at my club on Saturday.

One hole has slightly ruined an otherwise competitive week. Good 61 in R3 has me in the top 10, round 4 also started well and then I got to the 8th. Hit a perfectly good tee shot to have a good look at another birdie. 4 putts later I'm walking to the 9th with a double. Ouch. Lost a little bit of focus after that but rallied towards the end to post up a 64 for a -44 total. Might hang on for a green tick, or that hole might cost me. To be fair, do I really want to be collecting green ticks at this level anyway?

Pair of -7s of 66 on the weekend to come home at -34.
1 measly bogey in there just tells how dry my scoring ended up being. So many close calls and near misses that prevented lots of good scoring opportunities.
1 red mark off the records at least. Hoping to go get rid of the other next week.
Cheers, good luck.
