Who holds the Record

  I'm not normally one to go posting my scores on here, but I'd been looking for an answer as to how many people have won the Diamond Birdie Awards and a fellow CC member pointed me here.

  Well, at this risk of being labelled as holding "inside technical knowledge", I can be added to the list (I'm sure more are out there). I did it 2 days ago in a CC Tournament:

  

  

  Also, while I'm here, it would be nice if WGT could address the Birdie streak issue where if you score an Eagle/Albatross it ends the Birdie streak - there are definately players out there that have scored Under Par on all 18 holes, and haven't won the Diamond Award, which seems really unfair...

  Thanks Genorb, appreciate it, even more so from a player of your class. I doubt it'll be too long before you join the list as well...

  Cheers

  Very impressive congrats. I could not imagine in my wildest dreams on this game, having every hole go perfect. Not with what I have experienced in my 1200 plus rounds. Again, congrats on the 18 in a row, my best to date is 6 in a row.

  With today's equipment there's another guy who would be on that list:  Tibbets!  He retired from this game a long time ago, back when we were essentially using hickory stick club shafts and gutta percha balls.

  Guess u're right, though it was possible 2 do in that era 2. AvatarLee did it a long time ago (thought it was from the redtees) when tibbets was still around. Think he even deliberatly missed an eagle putt 2 keep the streak going...imagine :-)

  "deliberately" miss an Eagle putt to keep a "birdie" streak alive. I can't EVEN imagine the SELF CONFIDENCE!.. ahhh, I'll miss this eagle so I can birdie the next few holes to win the Diamond...Unbelievable...lol.
