I just suck now.
+2 -5 -5 E
and to think I had top 15 and top 10 few weeks ago.
Probably 4 straight non T25's for me. Good luck everyone else!
Back to the drawing board for me.

Just played my first two rounds in a late night session.
Very pleased overall - shot a -3 (69) for round 1 and -6 (66) in round 2. Putting has been clutch and only had two bogies in the rounds combined. Round 1 is a total grind. Even more so when one ghost ball shoots a -7(!!)
Will get back to the other two rounds later this week! Again good luck to all...

Round 1: 20-21 mph winds: - 4 (68) 5 birdies, 12 pars, 1 bogey Round 2: 12-14 mph winds: - 7 (65) 7 birdies, 11 pars Round 3: 10-12 mph winds: -11 (61) 11 birides, 7 pars Round 4: 10-13 mph winds: - 6 (66) 1 eagle, 7 birdies, 7 pars, 3 bogeys -28 total Come N get it! I aggressively went for birdies in round 4 and paid the price with 3 bogeys. The eagle was a hole out Coming for you bud... Two strokes back after first two rounds and your -6 leaves the door open in round 4!

Capitulated under heavy weather conditions

I started out nicely (IMO) with a -1 71 in the gale force winds. My 2nd round went poorly, struggled with accuracy and shot another 71. Finally got going nicely for my 3rd and 4th rounds, with a -10 (62) and a -9 (63), for a total of -21. Before seeing swaeromotion's ridiculous -28, I actually thought I might have a chance at back to back wins haha. Someone's gonna have to play their socks off to beat that score in these conditions... well done Bob! Great putting on your 1st round, JD. Excellent at lagging from nearly everywhere on the green. Oh and 17... Un-f'ing-believable!

Plus 10 in round 1. That's plus 10!!!! My worst score since Q School. And so much sand in my shoes it's unreal. I stupidly played round 2 after and must have been suffering shell shock. Could only manage a very unremarkable 3 under. Turned my PS4 off in disgust. I'll play rounds 3 and 4 but really, I shouldn't even be allowed to show my face on the course after that poor excuse for golf. I had a similar experience. I think I was +8 or +9 in the first round. The brain does a remarkable job of hiding trauma like that from your long term memory...

78 Started with 3 bogies in first 4 holes with terrible play. Clawed back to +1 thru 9 with terrific play before a poor back 9 killed me off. 72 Still struggled in the 15mph winds. Mainly due to not hitting the ball cleanly at all and some shocking putts I usually eat for breakfast and scrambled like an idiot aswell misreading my chips leaving tougher putts that I would have liked to save par. 3 putted at least twice aswell. Not good.
Poor start, let's hope the last 2 go better.

I wish there was an option to kick your ball back into the fairway...

The setup in round 1 is stupid. I have very limited experience with 20mph winds in this game, but Wind physics above 15mph are exagerrated in this game. You hit one slightly bad shot due to having to fade/draw and it's a double bogey. The green firmness of the course puts it over the top, you hit the front edge of the green and it rolls 30 yards off the back.
I cannot believe anyone shot under par, let alone multiple people. Crazy.

Crazy. I would imagine it was uncharted territory for most this week. And yes, I too thought high winds and ultra firm would be carnage. It was round 1 but then I adapted my game. Quite enjoyed it, in a perverse way! Miss the fairway and it's a mine field for saving par. Of which I failed miserably rnd 1. I literally have nothing but admiration for those that go under par in rnd 1
