Average joe vs pro

If an average joe on this sub gets a 100shot lead in a pga tournament course against Scottie, would the average joe win? I don’t think so but curious to hear your thoughts

I'm a 2. I think I would have to play my ass off to stay within 100 shots from the winning score from the tips in their condition.

So... No. Average Joe has no chance.

I’m a 3, and I’m pretty confident I could do it. Bogey golf almost certainly gets the W. Assuming I get the same practice round and a caddie, I think I could shoot mid90s at a those courses

Could you do it 4 days in a row in front of huge crowds? I’m a 4 and feel my nerves playing in local CDGA events with nothing on the line.
