Roy Higgi won the inaugural CGS event with a score of -82 holding off a hard charging Elwood (-80) who was the only duffer to score in the 50ies in the difficult 4th round. Mississippi and albatros tied for 3rd with a distant -62
Seven of eleven linksters managed to finish the tournament and between them they managed to accumulate 64 eagles as the Ammolite at Old Man River course seemed defenseless when high winds never materialized.
Other highlights included a Double Eagle scored by Elwood on the par 5 428yd. 4th hole of the opening round and aces by Redskin rd.1 123yd. par3 15th in the 1st round, and Roy Higgi on the 183 yd. par 3 3rd hole in round 2.
Mississippi provided some entertainment on the 11th hole in the 4th round, dropping 3 straight balls in the water going for the green from the tee box a' la Roy McAvoy en-route to a 9 on the 338 yd.par 4.
Bruce Wallace showed considerable intestinal fortitude finishing the tournament that featured green speeds he was quite unfamiliar with.
Thanks to all who played. This weeks event moves to Burnt Pine at Sandestin 2005.....Good luck to all !

Sorry to hear, Bruce. I hope things are better now...and yes, golf is much more fun.

It's a pro arcade event so one would have to have the user preferences difficulty setting set to pro in my account(top tab, right side) for it to show in-game, one can toggle back and forth to any difficulty level at any time.

I will give these affordable mini excavators a shot tomorrow. I have been in the hospital the past few days. Golf is more fun.

I didn't know you could switch difficulties on the go like that. I wish I didn't know that. Now I'll be tempted to lower the difficulty when I'm having troubles. haha

Let me clarify .......one can play tourneys at any level throughout the week changing from ammy to elite and anywhere in-between, changing within a tourney however is not permitted.

DirkPitt (-80)aced the par 4 2nd hole in round one, and never looked back becoming the 2nd winner in week 3 of the challenging series. Dirk ended Roy Higgi's(-76) 2 week winning streak by 4 strokes when Roy struggled with the gridless greens in round 4.
6 of 13 finished the tourney amassing 70 eagles along the way.
Week 4 moves to Dullatur Antonine 2005. Good luck to all who play.

Congrats to DP. Enjoyable event with a difference this one. And I love gridless but don't enjoy having a rubbish snap for a round and not finding fairways even in pro!

[DirkPitt]

Thanks Roy. Got lucky more than once. Been there with the off snap.
