So, after four plus years of mostly playing for fun and doing local tags matches I'm finally entering my first sanctioned tournament.
It's a large A-tier event with about 250 players registered but I'll be playing with the other geezers my age in the MA50 division.
I'll be playing three rounds at two different courses and will probably be playing them blind since I haven't played them before. I might get a chance to play them this weekend ahead of the event if I'm lucky but not sure if I'll be playing the actual tournament layout for my group.
My goal is to not finish last so if I can accomplish that I guess I'll consider it a win. I've been holding my own playing casual rounds with a couple of 950 rated youngsters lately and the guys I'll be competing against seem to be mostly 850 ish rated so I'm hopeful that I won't lay an egg or choke.
