Timmy Jordan
Jordan made the biggest jump of the period, climbing eight spots to a +1.5 handicap.
He started with a 3-under round at Jameson Golf Links Portmarnock in Ireland, producing a 3.9-under adjusted differential. He followed that with an even-par round at County Louth that adjusted to 2.1-under.
Both rounds helped Jordan make his biggest move of the update.
Cole Lantz
Lantz shot 3-under at Falconhead Golf Club, producing a 5.5-under adjusted differential.
The performance moved him up seven positions and improved his handicap to +2.4. Lantz also recorded one of the biggest single-video handicap cuts of the period.
Peter Finch
Finch had several rounds contribute to a seven-spot jump.
He shot 3-under twice at Fairmont St Andrews’ Torrance Course with both rounds producing adjusted differentials of 4.8-under. He also shot 1-over at Toscana Country Club which adjusted to 1.2-under.
Despite a tougher round at Dooks Golf Links, Finch improved his handicap to +3.4.
Taco
Taco went 3-under through nine holes at Strawberry Farms Golf Club, producing a 5.1-under adjusted differential.
A more difficult round at Ananti Club followed but the earlier performance helped him gain five spots. Taco now sits at +3.8.
Luke Toomey
A 1-under round doesn’t always tell the whole story, especially on a difficult course.
Toomey shot 1-under at French Lick Resort’s Pete Dye Course, resulting in a 7.1-under adjusted differential. It was one of the best course-adjusted performances of this update.
Harry
Harry gained two positions despite a difficult round at Heron Country Club.
He shot 14-over, producing a 10.9 adjusted differential. The leaderboard movement was enough to move Harry up two spots, although his handicap remains at 12.8.
Mariano Di Vaio
Di Vaio didn’t post a new video score during this period but still gained two spots as the leaderboard changed around him.
His handicap remains at +3.1.
Mathias Johansson
Johansson shot 1-under at The National Lakes Course, producing a 4.5-under adjusted differential.
That performance helped him climb two positions and improve his handicap to +5.4.
Garrett Clark
Clark put together an impressive round against Fat Perez at Payne’s Valley.
He was 6-under through 15 holes, producing a 4.2-under adjusted differential. Clark gained two spots and moved to +4.1.
Hoyzie
Hoyzie’s pursuit of breaking 90 continued with two difficult rounds.
He was 11-over through eight holes at John O’Gaunt and 15-over through 17 holes at Centurion Club. Neither round produced a significant improvement to his handicap but he still gained one position as the rankings shifted.
Hoyzie now sits at 25.2.
