I thought I would update everyone on how I went in the BMW Golf Cup qualifier. For those who don't know, it is an adjusted Stableford comp and I was playing off a 24 HCP (WHS). My goal was not to win, but to try and break 100 on a course that my previous best score on was 108.
The short story version was that I got utterly destroyed on the front nine with a 56 but rallied on the back with a 47 to finish with 29 Stableford points and a 103 gross. Considering the winning score was 37 points it goes to show just how difficult the course was playing on the day.
Still, we were well looked after by BMW and I'll be back next year if invited.

EDIT: Probably the highlight of my day was holding the longest drive (temporarily). It was only around 275-280 yards total distance which is above average for me. I was in the 4th of 16 groups to go through so I did not expect to hold it, and indeed at some point I was overtaken. Then later I found out the winner of the ladies closest to the pin competition was in the first group to play that hole!
