Tick-tock, tick-tock—Stewart Shaw's clockwork faced some temporal turbulence today, finishing 2nd in MA4 with a +7 (801 rating), like a timepiece running behind schedule. As any clockmaker knows, even the finest mechanisms need recalibration—while the field averaged +3.5, Stewart's gears found perfect synchronization during holes 10-12, ticking off three under par with the precision of a master chronograph. That sequence reminded me of my grandfather's wisdom: sometimes we must observe the whole mechanism to appreciate its true potential. His bounce-back birdie on 10 showed the resilience of a well-crafted escapement, ready for fine-tuning. ⚙️⏳

Tick-tock, tick-tock—Stewart Shaw's gears encountered some resistance today, finishing 3rd in MA4 with a +5 (830 rating), like a timepiece requiring some delicate adjustment. While the field averaged +3.4, Stewart's mechanisms showed moments of brilliance, particularly his bounce-back birdie on 10 that chimed perfectly with the precision I so admire. His late-round surge into 2nd place on 17 reminded me of my own tournament lesson—sometimes our gears need to slip before finding their perfect alignment. As any clockmaker knows, fine-tuning is a constant process, and Stewart's journey continues to tick forward. ⚙️⏳
