As you were Tone, rant over! #timeandplaceforeverything #nothere Rant was over rod till it was slightly prolonged.. I just have a slight issue with the title no aids..not after an argument. Stating an opinion in a relevant thread I feel.. Have a great day Hey if I could disable ghosts I would trust me, take it up with HB haha. I will add that I feel playing turn based live in a tourney is totally acceptable for 2 reasons A) it replicates playing professional golf on tour and B) encourages more community evolvement and who knows maybe make a few friends

Have a good day bud #discussionishealthy

Ghost balls playing out of turn are annoying for sure. Bad manners.
Back to Congressional. What a course and what a tourney. Winds are perfect and the mix of brutal holes with gettable ones is really enjoyable.
Had an epic 4th round with Rod. I needed -5 to get back to red numbers for the tourney and found myself -6 after 10 following five straight birds. Then hole 11 happened:
That is what makes no aids play great. The variation. Missing that 4 footer after being stunned by the Aussie bomb was rough. Couple of shaky holes but then it was Seve time again.
Headless bogey on 16 and then a nerve-wrecking 18 straight into the wind saw me hold on to -5 and in total a -1 finish.
Rod didn't manage to catch Rory but would have finished 2d with -10. He will have that put to remember at least:

I wanna embrace that challenge by myself, not with Casper the friendly ghost alongside me..ghosts on tgc were a great idea, but they shouldn't exist in tourneys... Many share my views, many don't.. That's life

Scored a -2 for round one. Had a couple of unlucky fringe bounces, but it felt good to stick my approach on the 500+ yard par 4 #18 to 6 feet with a 3 iron and to make the putt (barely).
Onto the next.

Round 2 I had 6 birdies. Then there was the par 3 10th hole. Nice 92% shot that got wet. Took a double on it.
Sitting -6 through two rounds.

I play my tournaments with the Father, Son & The Holy Ghost! (Sweeney, Garcia & Doley). They are my guiding light!

Off and away with a 72(+1). Love this course.
Also, what a putt from Rod.
