    This year is 5wks later than last year so the weather should be better and the rough should be a bit longer, new 11min time intervals should help pace of play too! Hopefully I can play, it's a great place.

    I think the cut off for the qualifier in 2013 was 5 or 6, so 3 would have a good chance of getting in this year. I'd say the cut-off might be lower though; owing to the later start, the weather is likely to be a little better (or at the very least, warmer!) this time around, which will probably attract more people.

    Can honestly say that last year was horrific. Coldest six and a half hours I ever felt on a golf course. Will always remember arriving up to the third tee to find five groups there ready to tee off.

    I would have just walked in there and then, even if the weather was lovely I would still contemplate it.

    Hope to play. Later start this year suits me for a change!

    More than 6 should also come through the qualifier as the reserve list is gone. Will also bring down the h/cap cut off for qualifier

    Surprised that such a high handicap would get in the qualifier - that's a great thing.

    I had 2 sets of rain gear on last year and was still freezing.
