Ha ha ha. You guys are cracking me up at a time when I should be sleeping!!! I'm surprised Chris, I expected you to score well on this one, particularly on first two rounds coz I've seen how you can play...as Dan said just not your week, come back fighting in the next one and show us the real player (as Kenny quietly removes the cheap fake clubs he planted in Chris' bag, and moves em to Dan's!!) ⛳️ ;-)

Up on exemption with you guys this week.. It's funny, in practice I found myself with a ton of uphill and downhill putts on this course.. In the tourney it seems like every freakin' putt was a side hill breaker.. I did not putt well on this course.. I missed a lot of putts for birdie but also made some real doozies to save par..
Round 1 = 65.. Could have scored better but ok with the score.. Round 2 = 66.. Thought I could do better but left so many big breaking birdie putts.. Round 3 = 70.. I made one bogey and one birdie.. And scrambled my tail off for the other 16 Pars.. What a tough round this was.. Proud of my 70.. Round 4 = 68.. Hit some horrible drives that cost me two bogeys.. I made a few birdies to get under Par but was not happy with this round..
I played my best and I guess I am happy with 11 under.. I doubt I will get to stay but liked being up with you guys for this one.. Good luck to everyone this week !!!

On the short par 3 #4 in the first round I brain farted and clubbed up instead of down. Ball went flying over the green OB as I watched in stunned silence. LOL. Had to step away from the controller & regroup. Finished -7 & was happily able to cool the reactor & avoid a TGC style Chernobyl incident

Have a sponsors exemption this week though I cant see myself staying up. Shot 65,66 in Rds 1&2, which is poor for the wind speeds. I then lost the plot with a 74 on Rd 3 (those winds are just brutal, anyone par or under is a god), then I finished with a 67 for the final round containing a nice wee hole in one on the Par 3 13th to finish up -10. Back to CC-D I go!

Well, I figured I'd play one round before bed. Ended up shooting what will be a possible course record. Couldn't let that momentum go to waste, so I played all 4. I am now sleepy. Very sleepy. 56 (-14) 60 (-10) 68 (-2) 67 (-3) Total: -29 I'm just happy I beat out Jared and mrkuo. I regularly use those two guys as ghosts for these things, both practice rounds and tournaments. They always go low. So beating them? Sweet. I might be in contention for a title here. Dang dude.. I struggled for birdies and your slamming them in from the fairway.. haha

I'm sure you'll win with that final score.

I'm sure you'll win with that final score. Just checked the Leaderboard. Some guy by the name of Owen Reynolds went -13 in round 1. Plays on the Xbox. Which explains why I didn't see that score in-game while playing on Saturday. That worries me. Because I know I could have done much better in Round 4 than -3. So if someone keeps up with me in 1, 2, and 3, there's an opening there during 4

Well I am in the middle of round 1 but I just had to post. I GOT MY FIRST DOUBLE EAGLE!!
This is still a bad round and I am horrible compared to how I played prior to the last update/patch/swing gate but finding some joy in shots like this.

I loved how the commentator says it was a "...bit of a poor shot..." in the middle of the ball flight

1st round, 65 2nd round, meltdown 75 3rd round, walked away from the computer before even teeing off ... 20 mph winds on this course? really? This course wasn't designed for these type of winds. (IMHO)

Well, stepping back on the tee, facing 20+ mph winds ... finished the @$#%*! course with a +10, 80. So I figured that I may as will finish my misery, teeing of int 13 MPH winds ... and walked of the 18th at +4, for a 74 ... +14 for the tourney ...
It might have been nice if the designer would have considered High wind conditions and designed the fairways accordingly ...
This is the CC Division not the PGA, nor Euro, not even the WEB.Com tour ...
The course is not bad for sub 7 MPH winds, but is a beast otherwise.

Well I scratch my head on this one.
When the winds were low in rounds 1 and 2 I was +2 and +4 respectively. When the winds were high I was -2 and +2.
What was most bizarre was I have NEVER drained so many long long putts and had crazy chip ins, pitch ins and of course the double eagle that I posted early. I just have had 8-10 jaw dropping shots over the course of the four rounds.
Now the flip side was I also left about 12-15 putts RIGHT on the edge of the cup (which crushed my score).
It was such a weird tournament for me.
