    Course is just fine, like it a lot...however, many many greens with lying dots and the usual bug which kicking out the players when playing alternate shot. Probably this new bug is not linked only to Chambers but in other courses too (kicked out from Merion the other day). It's so very annoying and frustrating...the frequency of this thing is 1 of 4 games never come up to an end.

     

    I know...i 'll clear my cookies.

    I don't get it..

    The Qualifier is unlimited play  (that's never the case for the Pro's - they don't get unlimited tries to qualify...)

    &

    The US Open will be then single play.

    Why can't there be same rules for THE tournament and THE qualification...

    Maybe one day...

    But I don't disagree with you.  Scored a 57 on my 2nd try and now I get to sit and watch as the gamers make it obsolete.

    20 @ 52 - 10K at 53 and 1million tied at 54 lol - and i aint any of them

    that's my guess (not really but do believe it will be lowest cut line ever)

    I thought the same thing but if it is playing for everyone else like it is for me 57 might just hold up...lol

    !st 3 days it played true, easy to score, lot of lipouts but around the hole...

    next day I noticed the dots were way off putting on the greens...made some adjustments to size of game window(smaller seems to be better)

    day 5 the distance was all over the place...

    today on #1 I had 149 to pin w/ slight crosswind, hit a 3/4 b/s 150 club that carried 159yds...restarted and had virtually the same shot w/ 151yds in...hit the same shot and it carried 142yds...made the putt, went to #2 with an approach shot of 133 into a 5mph wind..hit a 135 club w/ a hint of b/s and it carried 111 yds..WTF....

    get to #4 w/ 192 in playing 206, hit the full b/s 225 easy (because the 210 club always hits the bunker for me), and this shot only carries 180 something, hits the bunker...same sh!t on most of the holes for 2 days now...

    had a plan that produced a 58-57 with at least 1 bad hole on #15/#16 on day 2...now I can't even shoot 60 LOL...

    It's not you, Dan, it happens every year, without fail. Low scores come flying out early, all the speculating and guessing starts about the cut line and then the course gets harder, slowly but surely. Winds become less and less moderate or favorable, greens change speeds, individual VEMs get tinkered with and then the head gets in the way.

    What starts out as chasing one's early good score- only a couple of strokes or so off the pace,-morphs into chasing one's tail. LOL. Every year and I still can't catch my tail. I'll wind up birding every hole over the course of the qualifier (just not in the same round) and doubt I'll touch the 60 I posted. Head's probably in the way.  :-(
