Okay, so I’ve been following the Hong Kong Open Golf tournament, and let me tell you, it’s been a wild ride! I decided to keep track of the leaderboard myself, just for fun. Here’s how I did it.
First, I needed to know where to find the scores. I did a quick search and found a few websites that were covering it. There were a bunch of options, like Flashscore and some others, that seemed to have live updates. I chose Flashscore as my primary source.
Setting Up My Tracking System
I decided to go old-school and use a simple spreadsheet. Nothing fancy, just something to jot down the scores and player names. Each day, after the rounds were completed, I went to check the scores.
- Open the Website: I’d open the Flashscore website on my computer.
- Find the Leaderboard: I navigated to the Hong Kong Open section to get the current standings.
- Input the Data: I manually entered the player names and their scores into my spreadsheet.
Following the Action
It was exciting to see how things changed each day! Some players had really good days and jumped up the leaderboard, while others had tough rounds and dropped down. There were a few names that kept popping up, like Patrick Reed. He had some amazing rounds, especially that one day where he shot a 59! Also, the mentions of LIV Golf players were interesting. It’s wild to see how they performed against the Asian Tour players.
The Final Results
After the final round, I had my complete leaderboard. It was cool to see how it all played out, with some surprises and some expected results. It is not only the final results, but also every round’s results. I got a complete set of them. For example, there is a player who performed really well in round 1, but gradually got worse in the following rounds. That is really interesting, right? That’s why I decided to record the scores manually.
Doing this was a fun way to feel more connected to the tournament. It wasn’t just about passively watching; I was actively keeping track of the action. Plus, it’s always cool to have your own record of how an event unfolded!
And that is the whole story. I have seen lots of players, the changing of the leaderboard, and the final results. That was really awesome! I am considering continuing doing this next year.
