peasy23 Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 Westwood has just played a couple of holes in the same way I played 15 and 16 at our monthly medal this morning. He at least managed to salvage a double bogey on both of his. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 A penny for Jack Senior's thoughts just now. 4 shots to get out of greenside rough. We've all got that particular t-shirt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of birdie chances if you keep your ball in play but some serious trouble if you land in the rough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 I hit an 86 for a nett 66 today, even though I managed to hit a 7 and a 9 on the 15th and 16th. Drove the ball brilliantly apart from those 2 holes, and rolled in some great putts including a monster for birdie on the 10th, then another 20 footer on 11 for another birdie. Should be a big cut as it will replace an NR round with a score differential of 23. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Connolly Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 Morikawa is having a shocker with the putter. Hit 4 out of 5 greens so far, +3 for the day 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 Yesterday's round has seen my WHS index cut from 18.9 to 17.6. Wee bit of pressure on next week now as my 20th score is one of my counting rounds with an adjusted gross of 88, so I'll have to equal or better that or it could be a short lived stint in division 2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 Good stuff.Have to say now that I’ve got used to it I really like the new handicap system. Was playing with a 7 handicapper yesterday who NR'd on the first hole. He said the biggest difference for him was that under the old system he wouldn't have bothered his arse for the rest of the round as he was going up 0.1 regardless of how he did over the other 17 holes. He had a decent round and when they stick him down for a 7 on the first in his adjusted gross it will be a 78, 7 over par and will likely be one of his best 8. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could still buffer or even get cut with a No Return in the old system too as scores were Stableford adjusted. His NR at the first would have counted as a nett double bogey for handicap purposes. Having a NR on card did not guarantee a 0.1 increase. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolf also out and that lets Andy Sullivan in 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
