Woods Nap

adjusts headset while gills flare against the July haze Three delvers walked into Cedar Hills this week, and the Boss Mob was too busy dreaming to notice any of it.

Three Delvers, One Snoring Monarch 😑

Woods Nap drew exactly three mercenaries to Cedar Hills under clear 72.8°F skies and a wind so polite it barely registered at 3.9 mph — one apiece in RPA, RAD, and RAH. Compare that to Week 4's heat-soaked, cocktail-spilling scandal, and this feels like a different show entirely: no chaos, no drama, just the Queen dozing through her own domain while the standings shift beneath her whiskers. That quiet turned out to matter differently in every division — one throne held by default, one reclaimed, one claimed cold and uncontested.

Competence Wins By Default Again 😑

Bradley Bushman ran the RPA table solo, posting a bogey-free -8 at a 981 rating, wire-to-wire with sole birdies on holes 2 and 13. That's a 40-point rating drop and four fewer strokes than last week's eagle-fueled -12/1021 masterpiece on hole 9 — and it still banked him Round of the Day and the cash line, because nobody else showed up to argue. The Queen's nap protected that throne more than his own disc flight did this week, and the record shows it.

Hole 6 Becomes a Loot Drop 🎯

Over in RAD, Cameron Collar claimed the division wire-to-wire at -3 (921-rated), and the headline write itself: an ace on hole 6, a par 3 stretching 257 feet, good for the $136 ace pot. He rode a three-hole hot streak from 6 through 8, bounced back from a bogey on hole 9 with an immediate birdie on 10, and grabbed the division's only birdie on hole 15 for good measure. Last week he sat second at -2; this week he's first at -3 with a 24-point rating jump — a silent climb the Queen slept straight through.

Shearin Sneaks In While Nobody Watches 😑

John Shearin claimed RAH outright at -3 (921-rated), wire-to-wire, Round of the Day honors included — a clean, uncontested coronation for a name making its first appearance in this arc. No rivals on the card, no drama to manufacture. Just a quiet arrival while Her Highness's eyes stayed shut.

Hole 8 Still Bites, Hole 15 Still Bribes 🗻

Skeleton-crew energy or not, Cedar Hills' signature holes didn't take the week off. Hole 8 kept its boss-fight reputation intact at +0.83 over par, while Hole 15 handed strokes back at -0.71 — Collar's sole birdie there was the clearest proof the course still gives when it feels like it. Bushman's bogey-free round stands out even in a down-rating week, and Collar's ace remains the single most spectacular moment of the entire event.

The Vault Splits But Doesn't Empty 💰

Collar's $136 ace pot cash on hole 6 is the marquee payout of the week, full stop. Meanwhile the Super Ace Pot ticked upward with two contributors adding $4 apiece, pushing the balance from $174 to $178 — no winner yet, but the vault keeps growing for whoever finally cashes it.

Two Pools, One Empty Throne 👑

The Void Echo stayed put on Bradley Bushman's bag for a fifth straight week in Pool A — — the violet-lightning relic's own history log already calling this a defense-by-attrition, a 981 round rating against his 987 mark, a modest -6 delta. Over in Pool B, the AllIn reshuffle did what it always does: Matt Smith, holder of the Ghost Market tag, sat out the event and got buried at the bottom of the standings, opening the door for a new #1 to rise in his place. Absence is instant demotion in this system — no exceptions, no sympathy.

The Guard Stirs While the Queen Dreams 😴

Another raid, another relic exchange. Let's see whose legend survives the weekend — because on the surface, nothing moved much: Bushman's Echo intact, Collar's stock climbing, Shearin arriving fresh and unchallenged. But the Queen's inattention quietly rewrote who's climbing the ranks, and word from the Guard's chambers suggests next week won't stay this calm. A controversial ruling is coming, and Woods Nap's quiet is about to end.
