My Golfing Passion...

23/5/12 Wednesday. Back on my feet again, after the matchplay round on Sunday. No excuses played as well as possible and lost on the 19th hole. Coming from 3 down with four to play it was a reasonable effort to get square by the 18th and make my opponent earn his victory. Had my chances and just could not capitalise on them missed a couple of one metre putts that really hurt and could not string two winning holes in succession together all day. There was two bladed chips as well that cost me dearly in the end.<br><br>Given where I had come from physically during the week the effort was all I could muster. Today I saw the winner and his opponent playing their matchplay event, dont know the result at the minute. Fact is that the best player on the day won and if it had been me I would have really strufggled to play 18 holes today. Managed 9 holes and had to do that in 2 sections with 2 hours between walks. It was a dog of a day too with gale warnings out for the region and the seas are smashing over the breakwater with a night time storm brewing.<br><br>Honestly looking forward to relaxing a bit golf wise in coming weeks and start preparing for June competitions. With 3rd round of the Caledonian Inn trophy and in with a chance to defend my win last season on the 17th of June a Nett 71 or better will keep me in the hunt.the 23rd and 24th of June is the Keith Tournament and I will get there for at least one of the days golfing. In the meantime a bit of rest will be the best golfing option for me. Thankyou for your time and attention Hit 'em straight all
