Currently -16. if he could get to -17 he has chance!!!

Infoseeker1975 · 16-11-2022 12:22pm

Looks like -18 will be the mark and he is having a brilliant round, -5 thru 15 and up to -16. Definitely needs one under for the last 3 and possibly 2 under. Presume the higher up you get then still a chance of a good few invites for those ranked 26-50, etc

currently -17 with 1 to play

Salvadoor · 16-11-2022 12:43pm

If he birdies 18........

big_drive · 16-11-2022 12:45pm

Great sign of a strong mentality to be putting in such a performance with what's at stake.

Salvadoor · 16-11-2022 12:54pm

6 under low round of his week and low round of the day so far to sit 24th

he needs some favours though. #SqueakyBumTime

Mantis Toboggan · 16-11-2022 1:11pm

Great bottle shown, hopefully it's enough.

Infoseeker1975 · 16-11-2022 1:11pm

Finished -17 and yep serious balls under savage pressure to return that type of score, currently tied 24th and it could well be enough as the final groups will now know the mark and a few will naturally have poor finishes. Hopefully Gary Hurley can somehow get though as after 101 holes he was flying, just went bogey bogey so back to -18 and probably one shot inside the mark with 5 holes to go. Just as I finish I see he made a 2 after the 2 bogies...great stuff...would be fantastic for Irish golf to have 2 younger players from Munster:) on the tour

paulos53 · 16-11-2022 1:36pm

Hi is in a strong position now. Multiple players will have to finish with eagles to knock him out

Hurley bounced back with a birdie after his two bogeys!!!

Salvadoor · 16-11-2022 2:07pm

He's done it, he can't be caught in joint 23rd!!! I'm delighted for him

What a ballsy final round to make it, especially after the last few holes yesterday

fearruanua · 16-11-2022 2:15pm

I posted yesterday that I thought he needed a 65 today to have a chance. The man has just gone and pulled it out of the bag with his low round of the week!!!! unbelievable stuff. Serious liathróidí!!!!

big_drive · 16-11-2022 2:30pm

That's some way to deliver, the manner in which he got the card will surely be massive for his confidence going forward. Knowing you can deliver when there's no room for error must be huge for any golfer no matter what the level

charlieIRL · 16-11-2022 4:58pm

Great results for the two lads, well done.

phelimb · 17-11-2022 1:17am

Yeah, big congrats to the two of them. Hopefully they can push on from this now knowing that they have what it takes...

Does this gain them automatic entry to pretty much all of the DPWT tournaments?

Not the Rolex or the middle east swing probably but will easily get 20 plus starts.

Gather enough points for an even better category the following year.

fearruanua · 02-12-2022 12:30pm

Missed the cut last week.

serious start this morning!!!

-3 through 4 holes today. currently 1 shot off the cut.

He really seems to have the game to succeed at this level at the very least (i.e. at least keep his European Tour card and make a reasonable living)

fearruanua · 08-12-2022 1:31pm

+3 75 first round score for John at the dunhill in south africa.

7 bogeys 4 birdies

currently in a tie for 130th.

Salvadoor · 08-12-2022 1:49pm

Tough start to his DP world tour career

fearruanua · 15-12-2022 9:54am

Positive first round for John in Mauritius. in with a -2(70)

It would be a great christmas present for him if he could make a cut!!!

fearruanua · 16-12-2022 11:19am

I spoke too soon. From being well in contention after 27 holes, John has just gone bogey, double, triple, bogey, quadruple.

Salvadoor · 16-12-2022 11:46am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/120002810#Comment_120002810

and then another triple.

Horror show unfortunately

Mantis Toboggan · 16-12-2022 1:14pm

Jaysus that's desparate.

Yikes, that will leave a few scars you would imagine going forward.

joebloggs32 · 16-12-2022 1:52pm

I cant ever recall a collapse like that by a tour pro.

Hopefully he can park it and move on.

Beaulieu · 16-12-2022 7:34pm

Did something happen I wonder? Just after seeing his scorecard....shocking stuff for a pro.

phelimb · 18-12-2022 1:23am

Yeah, his card for the front nine looks like something I might hand in (or probably not) after a bad day ...something must have happened alright.

Pity he didn't make any cut for the last few events and earn some cash/ranking points as the fields were probably weaker that what will be there for the UAE swing in Jan...

big_drive · 18-12-2022 12:52pm

I'd say he might just need Christmas at home now and a chance to recharge. Probably bit of a burn out after putting everything into getting the Tour card

Salvadoor · 23-02-2023 1:53pm

Golf is hard.

5 missed cuts in a row for John and the 6th looking likely as he's 5 over with the last hole of round 1 to go (play suspended)

amlinopta · 23-02-2023 2:14pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/120279212#Comment_120279212

Double bogey, bogey, double bogey for his last 3 holes, probably in semi darkness, before the suspension. Level par for 14 was decent on a tough course

Salvadoor · 24-02-2023 8:42am

Finished off his delayed 1st round with a birdie for a 76 but then shot another 76 in round 2 including a 5 hole run of birdie, bogey, bogey, triple bogey and birdie.

Projected cut is +4 so must be a tough course

big_drive · 24-02-2023 9:54am

Each recent round seems to include a couple of big scores that ruin the score.

Salvadoor · 09-03-2023 10:17am

8 over 79 today in Kenya. 10 bogies and 1 eagle. 😦

Infoseeker1975 · 05-05-2023 10:19am

Really important 2nd round for John today, no cuts made this year on either main tour or Challenge tour, a +1 should get him in on a tough course with a much bigger prize fund. Might not get too many more starts so fingers crossed he shoots par or better and get a chance to play the weekend and make some money.

Salvadoor · 05-05-2023 3:39pm

7 over though 10 today.

Salvadoor · 12-05-2023 12:32pm

Looks like the 1st made cut this season for John.

2 under yesterday and a horrible start today (3 over thru 2 holes) but pulled it back to shoot level par for the day

Infoseeker1975 · 12-05-2023 3:52pm

Currently tied 56th so should be ok, great recovery today after a horror +3 through 2 holes, will be a massive relief and hopefully will rip it up over the weekend.

phelimb · 12-05-2023 11:08pm

Yeah big relief I'd say to finally make a cut and should be a confidence boost as well. Hopefully he will finish the weekend well and have some nice cash coming in.

Scrabbel · 13-05-2023 1:25pm

Triple birdie finish for -8 total. Great to see!

Salvadoor · 15-05-2023 8:22am

Level par final round to finish joint 28th and pick up €16k.

Hopefully will be the start of a consistent run over the summer month
