tiffer67: I left 4 putts on the lip in the opening holes that I thought had plenty steam in them to get there.
What a COINCIDENCE, i scored a 61 but also had 4 birdie putts which stopped INCHES from dropping. fast greens what a load of false advertising lol, they're standard at best, one hole my 5 foot birdie putt hit with EIGHT FEET power came up short. What i noticed when my birdie putts were online to drop they would come up short, but if they were going wide they would go past the hole. I call it score manipulation, others can call it what they want. But watch every one who has scores low this round will struggle next round and the ones with 60+ will be ALLOWED to score SUB 60. Used to see it happening in Country club 4 round tournaments, so will probably be similar in US open. There's probably a few lucky players (also with skill thrown into the mix ) who will get deviation free rounds on top who are going to get low scores all 4 rounds but the rest of us un-chosen ones will probably get mixed rounds.
But in fairness, this is the best Virtual Open yet because tghe unlimited round does not count towards any score, and we get 4 rounds of single play so anything can happen though. Nice one WGT and good luck in round 2 all
