  One 77 and one 76 in so far.

  Heavy winds and fast greens, should be brutal.   I don't think we've ever seen the fast green setting before.

  Another thing to notice is that the Leaderboard has R1 as a column header.  Hopefully this signifies multi-round tournaments in the near future. :)

  Well I just finished and it wasn't pretty....78. I actually hit the ball pretty well and had some shots. The rough got me on 2 holes..15 and 18. The rough and sand on 18 wasn't giving anything and the ball wouldn't come out. I was hoping 75 or lower. I couldn't get the putts for birdie to drop. Alot of fun though. I'm happy I made the cut and at least competed.

  I actually didn't have too bad of winds...a few holes had some crosswinds of 10 or 11 mph. The greens were pretty close to the same for me. Maybe it was my positioning. In fact some seemed a little more conssitent. I think I got lucky and was below the hole many times where I just had some uphill putts. I thought the winds and greens on the Ocean Course have been harder. 15 tees looked moved up a bit while 16 was longer. Just watch the rough and bunkers around the greens...they are not forgiving. 18 killed me and I doubled it because my approach went in the trap. I hit extra yardage and hit dead on and they never cleared. It was strange.
