OS GOLF LEAGUE - WEEK Seven - FedEx Cup Playoffs - Pinhurst - POST SCORES HERE!!

Round 1 = -2


Up and down round. Started -3 after 6. Then bogeyed 7, 9, & 10. Came back and birdied 12-14. Bogeyed 16. The hardest course so far for me in terms of the greens. I had to really try and postion my approaches so the ball wouldn't roll down the edge of the greens. Some holes were so bad that I didn't even try to make the putt. I just tried to lag it to some flat part of the green and hope I made a 4-5 footer. I'll take the score I shot, because I can see myself shooting a +5-+7 round on this course. Hard, but fun.

Round 1 = -2
Round 2 = +9

Total = +7

I officially HATE this course. If the pin placements replicate real life, then this is a course from hell. Sorry goalie, not one hole stands out to me. I hate them all! They all kind of seem the same to me. Easy driving holes to an elevated green. There were some holes that I thought I hit really good approach shots only to have it land a few feet from the hole and check up a little and roll off the green.

I watch the Masters every year and playing this course seems like this is what it might be like. There are many holes that I couldn't go for the pin because I know it would run off the green once it landed. I tried to hit to spots on the green, but even then it didn't help. Yesterday, I said the course was fun probably because the pin placements were manageable. Today, I just wanted to quit after getting a 7 on #2. Good luck to you guys!

Round 1 = -2
Round 2 = +9
Round 3 = -1

Total = +6

Up and down round. -1 front side with an Eagle on the Par 5. Even backside. Made a couple of 20+ foot benders that saved the round. My short game was better than yesterday and it had to be because I only had 9 GIR. I will play the last round just to get through it...
