  All I can ask of the group is that you all honor yourselves and the achievement that you've reached by finishing all 4 rounds playing the best you can under the conditions.

  Nice thought but there's too many egos on the list for that to happen. Maybe next year that 2000 could get paid AFTER completing the 4 final rounds.  :-)

  When you're sitting on the sidelines every year it's a little disheartening to see the WD's but I ask anyway. GL. :)

  P.S. Anyone know if there's a cut after the first 2 rounds? Players that hang in there and play all 4 might finish higher than they expect.

  I'm rather looking forward to see how this plays out. This is the first year of 4 rounds and I'm hoping the players are going to see 4 different scenarios.

  A 63 from here but a lot of missed chances.  I echo what others have said, pace your green calcs for standard speed rather than fast.

  Wish I had read this thread before I played the first round.....I concur the green speed seems to be standard not fast,,, I left 4 putts hanging on the lip on my way to a 61,, could have been a 57 if the greens were labeled correctly grrrrrrr,,,speed is more like "Fandard" LOL.........

  Hey guys

  We have identified a bug which prevented some players from getting the credits. We are working on manually adjusting that right now, so please allow us a few days to complete it.

  If someone qualified but did not get the credits by Friday, please contact me on my wall.

  Whoa,  you get 2000 credits just for qualifying?

  What do you get for a top 10 in these monthly tour tournaments? I was thinking you would get like 100 credits, I may have to change the tournaments I play in, the most I have ever got was like 187 LOL....

  if the greens were labeled correctly

   

  They were...I had run into the same thing last week or so in a RG...then noticed "Fast 8" instead of the normal "Fast 9"

   

  But alas, it did me no good, still kept coming up short...
