-24 under for me. I found this course very frustrating. I would hit a shot dead straight compensating for the wind and it would be no where near where I placed it. Tee boxes were sloped. Some pin positions were unfair IMO. Glad it's over. Good luck to all.

Rounds of -3, -10, -4 and -10 for a total of -27. Was a bit all over the place, doing stupid shots, in the water a few times, the odd 92-93% here and there. However, was it just me or was the ball not going where it was directed? Also, it seemed like so many putts weren't breaking when there was a clear line and slope or vice versa. Managed to stop the ball on the red lines as well on I think #15. How's that possible? Ben you are still top as I look at it, even beating the one who was kicked out. I also had some weird shots. There were a couple times, where I'd have for example: a left to right lie, left to right wind, my swing would be slightly right on the cone, but the ball would go left! Regarding the greens, I think they were just in tricky positions. The grid would show lines moving one direction most for most of the length, but the ball would quickly break the opposite direction when it got close to the hole. Since there weren't any lines showing the break near the hole, I started using the scout cam and looking from the opposite side. You could then see the slope, but there were no lines indicating that break. Very tricky, but realistic IMO. Also, did anyone else notice the tee box was sloped left to right on hole #13? I forgot to take that into account on my 3rd round tee shot, and the ball missed right of the fairway. Luckily, I hit my approach shot from the rough really close (almost holed out), which made for an easy birdie. You know, I thought the slope on the tee box looked a bit off but I figured it was just me. That might explain a few things. I've kinda come to the assumption that tee boxes were a perfect lie but now I guess I'm gonna have to keep an eye out for it.

A different thread by boomboom mentioned the Thursday tee box on #13 was "pooched". I didn't remember that and played it straight up all four rounds. Interesting to see how I did. I birdied it round 1.

I don't get why someone would have more than one account. Its now fudged up all the leaderboards, points, WGRs etc because you guys are idiots. People would have missed cuts because of it... Play the game properly so that others are allowed to properly enjoy it as well.

Does that mean Tim and Adrian are one and the same?
Is it too late to offer exemption to James and Nate for this week?

When is cutoff for scores? At midnight EST? which would be 1pm Friday here.. At this rate if not many enter their scores I will be forced to continue R3 and R4 with my pitiful +1. I suppose I embrace a chance to finish respectably. Works out to be around 5am Friday GMT for rnds 1 and 2.

probably and i'm pretty sure Actually, I'm wrong. I reckon Tim Hartley created Steve Williams account - the bell used 3 underscores for both PS4 names. Amateur. Still, I'm unlikely to make top 40 the way I'm playing. Would be an injustice for me to be promoted. Nate deserves it more than I do - you too if you only played tournaments like your practice rounds!!

I'm at -18 after three rounds (65-68-65). Hoping to have my best finish on the Web this week! Finally getting control of the new swing.

Closed with another 65 to post -25. With all the DQ's hopefully that will be a top-10 or top-25 at worst finish.

Nate deserves it more than I do - you too if you only played tournaments like your practice rounds!! but u see its all mental on practice rounds i play speed golf on tournaments i try to think and that is when i get in trouble just to take an example last week i played the euro tourney and im sure i could make top 20 because i had nothing at stake but once i would be registered for that said euro event i would choke because there was something at stake if that makes sence

Well my +1 got me in at 68th.
Shot -6 on R3 and -3 on R4 (after being -8 after 16 but hole 17 green..)
So finished at -8. on to next week to beat Tim.

I dropped one shot on 17 due to my side hill putt rolling off the green. I was lucky. I 4-putted the 4th after my side hill putt rolled off the green. I went from -3 to E in 1 hole and that ruined what would have probably given me promotion to web this week. But also realised I'm not ready for web yet. The greens killed me this week and I'm still not comfortable with the swing - hopefully the impending change will right the wrong
