Ok, Top 10, with one week to go.... This is all the spots up for grabs. 1-5 appear set (Haga and Fox "should" drop off, not sure why they dont have an red dot yet). I included everyone who could reach 10th win a win (108K). Really tight in 6-8. Here is the possible payouts for this week. A couple are estimates within a hundred dollars or so due to the fact noone has finished alone in those prize levels. 1-10, plus 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60th to give you an idea. Thanks for updating this breakdown! Pretty convinced this means I need to place 1st to get into top 10. 2nd likely won't cut it with others taking prize money home. Likely will be sitting outside of top 10 after this week no matter what, but we shall see how it all turns out by Saturday! 2nd by yourself would be really close. 20th for me puts me around 290K, I think Clay will finish around 290. A win would put you just barely over 290..

Couldn't get rolling in round 2. Tried to get too cute on 7 and ended up below the rocks and making double. Just missed a few long putts, and ended up -2 for the round, -10 after 36... I don't have a good feeling about this...

I was less than ordinary in the first two rounds as I once again could not make any putts. I shot -7 for rd 1 and -4 for rd 2. If -11 makes the cut then I can be happy with round 3. I started out with 6 straight birdies on the first six holes. Settled in, made some pars BUT on the 14th par 5 I holed a five wood from around 240 for a DOUBLE EAGLE 2. My second double eagle since joining tgc. Anyway I shot a 62 or -10 for the third round which may not even count. But I appear headed in the right direction again after some sub standard rounds.
Good luck all!

Think I might have just blown my exemption. -7 for R1 but just walked off the 7th with a 10 on R2. Bit of trouble with the rocks...... Sitting -1 after 2 rounds Chin up mate. Started well myself then blew the 3rd round. Started missing really short putts again and I officially loathe side hill putts! Highlight was putting my tee shot on 17 within 8ft then 4-putting to a double. Had equal measures of hate and love for this game. Followed Hammo's excellent 4th round. Could have been within a couple shots of his score had I not missed a couple of sitters. Hate the 17th. Did I mention that? Put my tee shot 3ft away and missed it!!! You must play Hammo's ghost on last round. It was a cracking round with a couple of absolute gems! Well done Hammo Thanks mate. Yes certainly had a few good moments in the last round. Sounds like you played fairly well. #17 was tough! That 3rd round pin was a bit stinky if you ask me. Nate shooting 56 in the first round has made me a little nervous now. I may have been a little too confident I might win this after my play. He is in some amazing form

I don't have a good feeling about this... Your score is very likely good enough to make the cut - which is all you need to do this week in order to get up to Web.com just in time for the Finals! Very nice work - glad to see you up here. As for #7 - I did that same thing on two of my practice rounds. Decided that hitting way long is much better than way short after taking a triple in practice. Tough hole if you don't hit fairway!

I'm sensing that the key is going to be round #3 here - sounds like i need to build up some equity heading into round 4

I hit the fairway, however left myself 100yds downwind with the pin at the right-front of the green... tried to get too cute instead of playing the safe shot. All along I was hoping to get my card in time for the finals and a slim chance of a PGA card -- you guys are good though, it's gonna be tough to crack that.

He is in some amazing form Sounds like Nate is making everything - no slip ups! He's also not choking - obviously got the mental side of it. I get sweaty palms the minute I string a couple of birds together!! Round 3 killed any sort of decent score. Round 1 is playing low - wonder how many will choke over the remaining 3 rounds. I've added my name to the list!! Fingers crossed for you though. Rounds 2 and 4 were exceptional.

The flop shot I played couldn't get high enough to teach the green and landed near enough at my feet! Very clever pin position, IMO. Congrats on your exemption. Well deserved.

Was just thinking id have loved to see your round 1 performance as a PS4 ghost. Good luck Thanks! Round 1 was all about approach shots... just saw the scorecard pop up on the site. 16 putts, no two putts. Longest putt was 15.2 feet - put everything close with my irons and what I missed I chipped in (three chip-ins). If someone live streams Ryan's round 4 I'll need to tune in - that way I'd have a chance to see the round play out. We need cross-platform ghost ball capabilities!!
