Ok, I'll go first. After just one practice round I thought me and this course wouldn't be friends. Still adapting to me new PS4 swing and struggling a bit to stay on course, I thought this week's tournament might be more effort than pleasure. Well, I was half right. The winds weren't terrible but they seemed more cross winds than in front or behind. I moved the ball ok and some of my approaches were a bit off, but putting on the fast greens was pretty good. I managed to go under par for all four rounds, but left plenty of shots out there with putts just coming up short or grazing the hole (I'm not an aggressive putter so this happens a lot on faster greens). All in all, a pretty good showing, hoping for another top 20 finish after a very surprising 22nd last week. Never expect a good finish with an over par first round, but the wind fix definately seems to have evened the field.

Hoping -7 is enough to make the cut as my third round -10 could boost me up a few places. Fingers crossed.

Hoping -7 is enough to make the cut as my third round -10 could boost me up a few places. Fingers crossed. With the less than 100 players (94 if I remember correctly) and those that do not finish, the cut is a handful of players. I think -7 is fine. Very nice -10 in round three!

I apologize for starting a thread early that can't be pinned since I am not staff.
Here is my repeat post from the other thread:
Round 1: On tee #1 12 mph wind South 67 (- 5) Couldn't get close, and when I did I rarely could make a putt from 8-15 feet. Round 2: On tee #1 10 mph wind East 64 (- 8) Better round, made some putts, missed some, got some close, missed a few greens that I shouldn't have. Round 3: On tee #1 10 mph wind East 60 (-12) I tore up the front nine at -7 as the pins were probably the hardest. Birdie on #5 was my best hole of the tournament. Round 4: On tee #1 12 mph wind West 66 (- 6) Winds were awkward for many holes. Missed a few putts I shouldn't have. Oh well, we all do.
Is it just me or is the worst putt to miss is one where you read a slight break outside the hole and you miss by dead exactly that amount, meaning if you putted straight you would have made it? I did that a half dozen times here.
A fine course. The $$$ is made on approaches and putting, whereas the driving is generous for the most part.
-31 total for me.

Not gonna play last 2 rnds until I know I made the cut. Really disappointed with the failed swings on first 2 rnds but also with my inability to play consistently. Anyway, even if I make the cut, no way will I be within 10 shots of Tim! That guys on fire!

Finally, after avoiding the 'PS4 snafu' before this week, I was hit with numerous 'less than 100%' shots in the first round. Even had a 218 yard tee shot with my driver. With that said, still enjoyed the week with a -23 and should have played better. Hope to still beat my friendly rivals but after seeing Lee's second rd, I am marking him off my list if he continues to put up those rds. Ayako, we all have weeks like you had this week. Looks like Drake, Wes and Andy will kick my butt this week. Luke, I hope you put up the numbers to stay on the Web.
Gary Groom,(Dogey-shockers), it seems we play at the same time on a lot of days. If you would explain how, I would love to have a turn based game with you some time.( I am a novice to online gaming)( you too, Lee)
Good luck guys!

Hmm, interesting, leaderboard I was 3rd after round 1, now I'm 1rst still round 1. Someone got maybe to drunk on the course and was thrown off, nah not likely, as I would be first to go.
K for the spoiler I went -9, -11, -7, -5.
Maybe 1 day I will put 4 good rounds together.

Tim,you have just caught our Japanese buzzsaw in a little slump. Give her time, she will beat you like a drum! Right, Ayako?
