    When I started to play more than two years ago here at WGT was very attentive to the discussions that were present in the forum but there was one that I "fascinated". I do not remember the title but it sure is very close to what I have just opened, unfortunately I could not find it.

    All this to share with You that finally, after more than two years I closed my first 54.

    Was not obtained on a rough link like Kiawah Island with wind at 20mph and championship greens but at the still hard Bethpage Black on a normal green with very fast speed and low wind.

    This is the first thought, when you score 54. I did it, finally.

    David.

    Thanks mate, appreciate that.

    Nothing to hide in my profile and for sure, no suspicious thinking. Got on my back over 4400 ranked rounds, never had a practice round but strokes, strokes and strokes again. Indeed, maneged that in my country club event so "no big winning".

    Just for the glory, I still be a mediocre player.

    It was a very lucky combination of events, directly on the F9 with 7 birdies (4 with chip in) and one eagle. The B9 was a normal 27 but only at hole 17, after missing a 10ft birdie, I thought: I must have a birdie on the last one. A 55 wouldn't sound good as the 54 and that because I only had on my mind this old thread. 

    Never score something under 57, never. This one it's for me a spot on.

    Cheers,
    David.

    54 on any course with any wind or green speed is fantastic...well done.
