Well yuck lol. -3, -6 for -25 total. At least I made the cut but that was awful especially Round 3 couldn't buy a putt and every approach seemed on the wrong side of the hole. On to next week! Play well....

A solid -12 and a bogey-littered -8 to start for me in this week's moving plants edition of our wonky greens festival, leaving me cut-watching and seasick.

-7 thru 2. Double demos.
Considering a week off next week. Going to shoot myself out the door at this rate and I'd rather go out trying my best than with a whimper.
There's a hidden other reason too for potential week off so... I think I'll do it. Never have taken one for TGC competitive action so this will be something new.
Cheers, good luck.

I've done it a few times over the years, it's healthy. Play something else, you'll be back because like most of us you love it. Just need a little reset now and again. Especially at this level, if you are just going through the motions you'll go south very quickly. I stunk this week, thankful for only 1 red mark. Rooting for xcltaff1980 to bring it home....

Wow.
One player shooting -18 at the cutline resulted in 23 players missing the cut at -17.
That's a real bummer and a total shock to me.

At least you, Neil and Ronny have a 'no harm done' missed cut, I'm hoping enough people finish so I only get 1 demo mark.

I knew -16 wasn't going to make it, just was a bit shocked at -17 not making it. Figured I had made the cut so I played the last two rounds a few days ago LOL

Unexpectedly (for me, at least), I made the cut pretty comfortably. Finished up with two uninspired -8s for -36. 54th? Already look forward to next week; hoping for greens with little windmills and miniature one-way-traffic signs...

Nothing wrong with this week's course and greens - although windmills would have been fun. However, for some inexplicable reason, two days ago I decided that it was time to try something different... So, I changed my bag (threw in a hybrid), changed my archetype, changed all my skills and changed all my fittings. After about 12 holes I concluded that... this bag is not my bag, feels wrong, cannot handle it, feel lost. So, changed bag again (back came the 4 iron), changed my archetype (back to Greensman), changed all my skills and... ran out of fittings to change back to my original set-up... With a driver with tempo worse than my IRL tempo, and a 3W that is vulnerable to say the least, I shot -16. Hope it's enough to avoid demo marks; will be close. And, yes, I'm an idiot!

Haha I did the same to end the week. Was feeling super confident. And then I loaded elite…..struggle bus ran me over and didn’t stop to see if I was ok. Hopefully we make it!

I've been having a break from the game for a bit, starting to get the itch to come back and play again but I won't have time this week. Maybe next week but more likely the week after. It's been good to have a break though, I was getting over it.

Week off for me, as I figured I would do last week. It's one thing to claim to do something, then to commit to it afterwards. However, next week is too great of a coincidence that's about to happen for me to NOT take a week off to make it happen. And I do want to take the little time out to figure out an issue or 2 that weren't there in my virtual game before. Oh well, looking forward to playing in my 100th pro tour event (and 69th in Elite, nice!) next week... at Old Hundred. Talk about the odds! Cheers and good luck to y'all this week! And next week, I guess.

After an ugly missed cut and 2 demo's last week shot 22 under tied for 13th at the moment. 2 awful bogies clouded the rounds but overall swung well for a change. I only make a third of the cuts in Elite it seems so hurray for a week! I'm sure rounds 3 and 4 will be more difficult. Cut line hanging on 17 but 3 players could make 18 the number. Lots of people dangling right now at 17 holding on for dear life!
