Always go to the last entry... (those who are playing daily are appreciated).

Had a real nice and welcome ACE on #11 in Round #3. That is a long, long par 3.

One player away from finishing this FedEx deal up. Hint! Hint!.

Thursday

I think these are the principle players. We have two players (MasterMontgomery & DirkPitt) with 2 rounds remaining and one player (RonnieSmith) with one round remaining... Please finish out. I'm working on Marco Simon for the Ryder Cup. I've not seen/played the course yet. Not sure if its quality. Will let all know.

If any of you are interested in a US vs Europe/World, let me know where you live and I'll see what I can work up. It would just be combined scores of equal numbers of players.

Keep in mind that the version of Marco Simone we have for Links is the old layout (they completely rebuilt the course in real life since then, I think the new layout was finished summer 2022). It will likely still be the closest thing we have by the time Ryder Cup happens so I dont mean to speak against it, but Im just saying it so it wont come as a surprise later. Sean Landry has mentioned working a bit on a new version but I think chances arent looking so great for that one being playable before the Ryder Cup happens.

Understood. I looked at several aerial photographs of the real course and see some differences. I think this one is well enough done to use. It's hard to tell if the green undulations are realistic... they're pretty steep in places. Again, I think the pin positions are fair. The hardest putts will be if you get on the high side of some putts. Still, using a maximum of SC/FC, you can get the ball to stop if you putt defensively.
