    And disgraced myself with a 5.

      And this is how I have zero points. Despite entirely respectable scores from my non-tournament play, my run in the tournament has been somewhere between average and rubbish:

      A five for me today.

        Much the same experience for me and with the same result. A five and a draw.

          Horrible 5.

            Tagging Various Artist lambers David Agnew to ensure, as far as I can, that everyone knows Round 3 has started today.

              No eagles, but it turns out that a steady par was enough today.

                Crikey. Didnt see that one coming. Have no doubt quality will still out.

                  Same here in every regard SB. Despite yesterday's eagle, three-putted for a 5 for me too today to ensure our pairing really starts off in style.


                  Sorry for the delay IT, I played soon after the day ticked over but got distracted by your new posts about half past midnight when I came back to post my score, and forgot until now!

                    Sits 2 3
                    That's settled the early nerves, hasn't it? Today saw 12 scores over par and the stroke average was a wobbly 4.29, which cannot be unrelated to the solution containing a repeated letter on hole 1 for the sixth time out of seven OTF tournament rounds. Auntie Beryl came up with the neat trick of bogeying into the lead.

                    If we're at the level of identifying micro-trends, the early posts looked favourable for RoW, most notably a dashing 2 from Sporting. Then the day swung towards GB, although the scoring was scarcely more overwhelming than a gaggle of youths tooled up with fish slices.

                    Permit me a crossover reference, from 20 Down in the Guardian Cryptic of the day: Crumbled in golf on series of holes (6)

                    Next up - oh yes, it's everyone.

                      See, that's why I don't get the Guardian - the crossword's far too easy.

                      I'll kick off today's scores with a frustrating 4 for matt j to get back into the game.

                        A double bogey 6 for me today.

                          Have also set a low bar of 6 for ad hoc

                            I forgot to log my score yesterday, but it was a 4, so Sits wins hole 1.

                            Scraped a six today though.

                                A bar I have rather excessively cleared with a 3

                                  Hard luck, you let me off the hook - I scored 5 today and have been fearing the worst. Tough hole.

                                          Oops, thanks for the tag, or you might have gotten away it as I've been working late tonight and totally forgot to post my score after playing.

                                          I got another 3.

                                              Oh bollocks. Winning streak of 46 comes to an end. Moral of the story is don't change your opening word.

                                              Just get the word, Auntie Beryl, and you're already 2 UP.
