Birdie Streak

  Not sure about this one. Just shot a 54 with birdies straight through from 5-18 but this did include an eagle on 9. In my stats, my longest birdie streak is now showing as 10. This seems like an odd number given that if the streak was broken by the eagle (which seems daft), I'd have only had 9 and not 10.

  Typically I didn't take a card for prosperity to back this up but hopefully you have means of seeing that I did have this run of holes. Given this is pig of an award to achieve, I'd really prefer it if I'm currently on 14 rather than 10.........

  hi

  Birdie is steak is just that. i know it hurts but I have had the same before and felt like that as well. I guess if you have an eagle in it, it's not a streak anymore.

  I think I know what you mean.

  Anyway, I too have had birdie streaks broken up by an eagle to cut the streak.  But just dealt with it.   Happier to have another eagle than worry about my birdie streak.  That's just me though.

   

  Still doesn't make any sense though.  Unless they start an under-par  score streak

  Thanks Icon; on that basis though, why do my stats show as 10 rather than 9? I had nine straight on the back but the eagle would then have to count as the 10th? I had a trophy come through during a round for a birdie streak so that's the only reason it flagged this up in my thinking.
