   I do have to disagree with the person who said the front was easier.  I made the turn at -1 and shot -3 the back 9.

  Agreed, +3 on the front for me, -3 on the back on my first go around. Front has much harder greens, and the traps are death defying. Nowhere near as much trouble on the back.

  I disagree. 1st time out i was -6 for the front 9 and just when i thought this is easy, the course bites back and i was +1 for the back 9 to finish -5

  Seems to be the tale of two 9's..... I've since had the exact opposite experience as my first try and think it looks more like the course is gonna give you one easy half and one impossible half. Flip a coin.....

  Cut Prediction Update (I'll get it right eventually)

  Having just shot -10 on my first WGT play of the day, I am going to revise my cut prediction downwards to 61 (with the option to go to 60).

  Parred 1 and 2, then shot consecutive birdies from 3 to 8 inclusive and birdied 10 and 11.

  Would have birdied 9 too only wife distracted me on approach shot, which would have meant 9 consecutive birdies.

  There were at least 3 holes I had great chances to birdie as well as the 10 I made (no eagles, no bogeys) so that is why the cut may go to 60.

  I was using the new Burner 2.0 Irons and the Cally i(s) ball, and the irons worked well.

  At time of writing, -9 is 107th place, so I don't think that will make it, and -10 is 68th place so that might have a chance.

  Tune in next time for Predictions - Never Trust Them, coming to a forum near you
