Yeah, that first hole beat me up in practice as well.. So when I got a bogey on it in round 1, I was not surprised.. You should get it back on the par 5 - 2nd hole but I only got a Par which is just like a bogey on that hole..

Just finished my 4th round, shot 73, 71, 69, 68. First tournament that I've managed to finish under par so I'm really happy with that. Over shot the 1st green in my 3rd and 4th round causing me to triple and double bogey. Putting down the slope from the back of that green was a nightmare so wasn't the best of starts but I did manage to flop in for an eagle on the 18th in my 4th round so that was a huge bonus. Hopefully I'll avoid my 3rd demotion strike with a half decent score this week. Good luck everyone. That score right there (-7) might get your other 2 strikes erased.. You should easily finish in the top 30.. That would be great. I didn't know that both demotion strikes were erased if you finished top 30. Still a lot of good players to play so I won't get my hopes up. I'm just aiming for top 70.

I had a shocking first couple of rounds but improved as it went on, did not enjoy the strong winds and still struggling to judge the greens which is my downfall, I can get GIR quite easily but I can't judge the greens. Ended up +26 which will definitely take me down to CC-E, hopefully I can pickup the green speeds before I hit CC-Z. It is really frustrating because I can do quite well in the practice rounds.

I really concentrated on every shot in this tourney.. First round 73.. Second round 74.. Third round 68.. Fourth round 71.. Finished the tourney at -2 and I am happy with that.. My goal was to make top 30 to get rid of my red x.. Not sure I did enough to make that happen.. I was happy that I came back under par for the tourney when I was 3 over after 2 rounds.. The first hole in this tourney ate my lunch.. I think I played that hole at 5 over for the tourney.. The course was great and I actually liked the speed of the greens.. Some of the short putts were tough and you had to be real careful with your speed.. I missed my share of 5 footers.. In the final round I lipped a bunch of birdie putts.. It was a good tourney and lots of fun..

This course reminds me of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. If you are perfect it is very rewarding. But if you make a mistake, it punishes you severly.

This course is beating me up pretty good. +3, +2 in my first two rounds. The greens are so tricky and fast. It's easy to turn a birdie opportunity into double bogey. I'm having fun playing, though. Having the winds set per round makes these tourneys so much more enjoyable, even if I'm not doing particularly well.

The course is great. The greens are terrible. Just super unrealistic small mounts there are all over the green. It is like they buried bodies.
