"Tiger Woods 2004 Challenge"

Firstly i've posted this in general because if i'd put it in Sony, X-Box or PC it would have been missed by some.
In my boredom i've just started playing the game again and it reminded me of something i had in mind ages ago and this would be it.
A 7 day challenge starting Monday, each day you play the assigned course and report in your score, you can play it as many times as you like with whatever equipment and whichever golfer, i'll total them up and see who comes out on top.
Before anyone starts i know i can't stop you cheating, if you want to boost your score there is nothing i can do about it but dodn't expect to get the same satisfaction if you come out on top.
Anyone who has TW 2005 can join in if they like, i'm unsure about whether these courses are available on that version but i can change the courses if i'm given time, anyone who has the game can join in whether it's on PC X-box PS2.

Who are you guys using?
I found Furyk really useful at Sawgrass myself.

-17 under, eagles at 2nd 11th and 18th, birdies at 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14 and 16

I'm not finished yet though, i'm pretty sure i can beat that.

eagles at 2, 4, 9, 11 and 16, birdies at 1, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 13, 14, 15, 17 and 18 for a round of 51 -21.

I'll take that, and i still think i could have done better, missed an easy putt at the 3rd and inches from a double eagle on the 11th.

Nice, a double eagle. They are pretty rare, rarer than holes in one I think.

A Double Eagle at the 11th, Eagles at the 2nd, 4th, 9th and 16th, and Birdies at the 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th, 8th, 10th, 12th, 13th, 14th and 17th, which I believe comes to 21 under par.

Pretty handy round.

You mispelled Grandprix.

*goes off to unlock Sunday Tiger Woods*

Right, had a couple of attempts at it. Played a pretty flawless round and here is the results:

Eagles at the 2nd, 9th, 11th, 12th and 16th. Birdies at the 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 10th, 13th, 14th, 15th, 17th and 18th for a round of 49, which is -23.

I was close to a few chip in eagles so I could probably improve but I didn't really need my putter as I was sticking the ball within 4 feet at almost every hole.

Well, the first is the easiest I think to eagle. The 6th and 11th are possible but you have to be really fearless and hit monster drives, if I remember the holes correctly.

I'm using TW2004 on the PS2 by the by.

I've got my score down to -11, i'm noticing that i can't reach the holes you're eagleing.

Emerald Dragon yes?
Played as Tiger Woods.

Managed 16 under par, with a hole-in-one at the 9th, eagles at the 1st and the 11th, and birdies at the 4th, 7th, 8th, 10th, 12th, 14th, 15th, 16th, 17th and 18th.

First hole-in-one I've ever got, yay. Very pleased with this, probably muck up at Sawgrass tomorrow.

Got to 7 under par on the 13th on The Predator before Retief Goosen caved :)

It depends on how far I want to hit it, the gradients from tee to fairway and the wind direction and speed. My furthest drive is around 420-440 yards but that was with a lot of help. My average drive is about 360-380 yards.
