I have loaded up the tournament a couple times, ready to hit my first shot and twice went back to practice the round instead. I'm so nervous for this tournament. I love the course so much I want to do well. I don't have to win, but I want to shoot well, as it has been so long since I've done so. NERVES! I love this course too, but I'm not one to wait so I teed off right when it was available. I don't think it was a mistake necessarily because my game is such complete and utter crap that more practice wouldn't help me. For sure another missed cut for me. Repeating theme and I'm moving in the wrong direction. Tee to green I feel ok about things, though certainly only anticipate the roll outs correctly about half the time. I just miss every opportunity I have for birdie. I over-read or under-read the break constantly. It is beyond frustrating at this point to tap in for par 5 or 6 holes in a row. I was going to put together a video showing me with 1 foot putts for par after just running by the edge on 6 holes in a row...then realized nobody would want to watch that I have my match play against SweetTeeBag coming up...the hottest player on the tour right now. Should be over in 10 holes. Ugh! Wish I knew how to get better. Playing a lot certainly hasn't helped. I need to get a new signature ready for my demotion to Web soon! Yaters Theme Song

I'm almost certain my final rounds are cursed. That is a shame, I played with your ghost ball all four rounds and was really impressed by your round 3. I saw that bogey you had in round four after pitching past the pin and rolling down the hill Did you like my complete miss hit on the par 5 12? Tried to loft up a 3 wood, shanked it left. It three bounced off the rough to the left of the bunker, rolled up to the green and fed down to about 12 feet from the hole. One of the only 12 foot putts i made and it was for eagle! Completely fluke in Round 4. Still that might be a winner score.

Most of the top players here are spot on with distance control. That and putting is where I lack on this game. Actually, the list is probably longer!! All I can say is good luck with the match play!

I'm almost certain my final rounds are cursed. Wow great score! I think that -7 in the final round will still be near the top, that is a tough setup

-24 for me. Good first 2 rounds for the most part, but the last 2 the difficulty really steps it up. My final round 70 killed me...was +2 the front 9 and had to scramble to finish under par. One of the best courses we've played this far. Really well done and difficult, without having to be tricked up.

Hmm, -11 on that R3 is deserving of a win. I've just scrambled for a -4 to leave me at -32 after 3. Just a gentle -12 or -13 to win then (or beat Boomer)! Haha

Ugh. Once again, I had a fantastic round and a seriously mediocre round. -11 in the winds of R3 was followed by a pitiful -3 in the last round, putting me at -37. I feel a little bit better after seeing Boomer's incredible score (nice shooting, Bryan), but pissing away those two amazing middle rounds definitely sucks. A week of "what-if"s for me, to say the least.
Good luck to everyone with golf to play!

Some great golf but also some seriously rubbish golf thrown in there especially in the wind.

A week of "what-if"s for me, to say the least. Good luck to everyone with golf to play! Thought I was finally going to be able to pip you this week when I was -35 under with 12 holes to go... but then just couldn't get anything going and ended up even on the rest to finish at -35, probably shouldn't have played all 4 rounds straight through. Wasn't far from albatross on the last (I think) par 5 with the multiple ridges, but just rolled by and then slowly slid down the slope and I barely made par
Still, probably my best tourney in a few weeks given the conditions, hopefully this is enough to get me out of the mid-20s funk. Missed a few putts that I shouldn't have, but also made a few I shouldn't have as well, so can't complain too much.
How many eagle hole-outs did you have in those middle two rounds? It seemed like your ghosts were making it rain! Another week of absolutely no hole-outs for me, getting frustrating watching you drain three's from downtown.
Will be interesting to see the scores come in this week, seems like on xbox there is a pretty wide range so far. This tourney really tested so many aspects of the game with the softer conditions in R2, winds in R3, and tight pins in R4.
