Tricky sequence question...

[Jabba69]

Firstly, sorry...

My club are running a advent golf quiz, and this one I cant get. Any ideas....



Find the next number in the following sequence: 174; 163; 163; 168; xxx?*



Sorry, but its bugging me so much I didn't know where else to turn ;-)

Not the answer but another question, what's the next number in the sequence 1,2,5,10,20, ?

Sounds like it might be 2 round combined scores for something..... maybe its relative you a competition at your club?

That one is easy. It is 50.

I thought it might be par 3 yardages for a particular course. I've tried Augusta, TPC Sawgrass, and a few others, but was a bit tedious!

I've got it. Winning scores for the Open, the next one is 167 Google is your friend.

167

The first 5 winning scores of The Open Championship

Edit: beaten by the buzzer!

It's not the Par 3 lengths of your own course is it?

* Ahh, just seen the two posts above me. Good question!

And I was ready to have a rant about people over-thinking their swing...
