hmfc_liam06 Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Played 9 holes Thursday and yesterday, a pair of 39's. Back out again today. Hopefully we can have a dry spell now and let courses dry out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, be prepared for some other bizarre stuff! Always happens. 😄 What a difference a day makes. Started with a 10 at par5 10th. Played like a hacker.😀 It didn't really improve.

Samuel Camazzola Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Fairmont played well today considering what the weather has been like. Tees were fine and greens running very well. Sections of rough and fairways still saturated but as long as Tuesdays rain isn't too bad, it should dry out nicely with the wind and milder climate.

I believe those that bought winter memberships or signed up to the Winter Series will be advised this week that an extension to end of April will be applied. There's a Texas Scramble pencilled in for 21st March but that will be subject to the limitation on two players being lifted along with the travel restrictions.

joondalupjambo Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 First game last Saturday since early December, hit an 84 round Lundie off 11 which I thought was ok given the time between rounds and the slight sea breeze. In the buffer zone after all. Beaten 4 and 3 by a 22 handicapper who had to give 11 strokes to, don't ask. His two birdies at the holes he did not get strokes at helped though!! And here is me wondering why he turned up on the first tee wearing a sombrero and chewing on a fajita!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woods was removed using the "jaws of life" and the car sustained "major damage," according to the statement. There were no other people or cars involved in the crash, according to department officials. That will be him definitely out the Masters then.

Samuel Camazzola Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Great video featuring Max Homa.

Samuel Camazzola Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 I wonder if Bryson will attempt to drive the par 5 6th tonight! 😄😳 Looks like last night's drive would have made it if the line was a tad left. The pin position left him blocked out to get the pitch close but still managed the birdie. Going by his swing speed, he left a bit in reserve to make the carry.

kila Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Westwood giving DeChambeau a golfing lesson. Power is worthless without the touch and feel. A great final group pairing though. Lee hits a nice soft and controlled wood on the second hole, a 227 yard par 3 and ends up within 10 feet for birdie. Bryson smashes a low 4 iron through the wind and it goes shooting through the green. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kila Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 (edited) Rory five off the tee on the 6th after trying to carry the water twice to shortcut the par 5. Sticks his sixth shot from over 200 yards with swirling wind to within 10 feet and might get away with a double bogey, incredible. DeChambeau will want to try drive this green I think. He was close yesterday and can carry the water if he catches it right. This is the only time he is exciting to watch, as watching him smash irons to within 30 feet of the pin is a bit shite.

No miraculous double bogey this time as he posts an 8. Also a double bogey at the 10th (his first). He was out in 43.
