  I feel like I am letting you down on this tournes Icon, but the schedule is just too tight for me. Hope you soon get the 48 hrs working

  Ditto to this. I'm sorry too to miss this edition. Timeframe just too tight, especially with the UEL Ryder Cup getting underway.

  Good luck to everyone!

  icon,

  I enjoyed the first 2 editions of this tourney (mostly anyway, lol), but probably will not play again as long as 18 holes per day is required.

  Perhaps you would consider going back to 3 days per round. You could still start one every Monday, there would just be some overlap.

  Or ......... very simply.

  Set up all 4 rounds for a 7 day tournament ... and let people play them as they have the time.

  Hm, this should be fun. Round 3 +3 after 2 holes. The greens aren't quite as slow as yesterday, aren't they...

  Sooo, the final tally on the front 9:

  2 × hit a tree + 3 × building sand castles (all of them a masterpiece, trust me) + lousy putting = +5. Can't wait for the rough on the backside :-)

  Edit: 2 birdies and a 3putt bunker bogey on #17, so my backside didn't hurt as much as I thought it would. Can't wait for the ice rink tomorrow. I better stock up in the mouse department, can't really expect 1 to hit a wall at speed 10 times and still work ;-)

  Round 3 and i thought i'd shot a bad round, turns out it wasn't so bad after all....I seemed to miss putt after putt.     I'm sure the fast greens will find me out but the uneven lies i seem to have got.    

  If you are reading this VEM2000 i was  only joking, i hate this game, and am screwed every time. !!!

  Doesn't take whole round for me. Hole #2 is enough :)

  you know.. I had 4 putts stop inside 6".. they were all around 8-12ft and I was very much surprised that they stopped...

   

  my 78 could have been 72-74 with little luck

   

  #2 this was my approach shot  the rest led to frustrating 10 :)
