2 weeks out, you should be doing 90-95% effort of your goal then the next week, taper back to around 60-70% then week of, taper back to 30-40%

This is about right!
I know for triathlon and running you cut the volume back a lot but still do intensity stuff to “keep the pistons firing” at the conditioned level. However, if you’re doing CrossFit and getting ready for a golf tourney I’d just do a few days throughout the week at about 30min/day the week of the race.
