Powerade and Paris....
Hello again folks.
The Powerade tournament was a disappointing experience unfortunately. I ended up +8, shooting 77 which was never gonna stand a chance of qualifying so as I say it was very disappointing. It was more a psychological problem than a technical one for me. Not temporament for once, I've got to say that for once I did myself proud in that department and showed myself that I am capable of keeping calm.
It was confidence, pure confidence. I experienced nerves that I haven't felt for a long time and began to doubt my ability. This seems to happen when I play in tournaments against people I know and that may be interested in how i've scored. I did hit a lot of good shots but there were occasions I felt so nervous I didn't think I was gonna be able to take the club away. This really wasn't pleasant and needs addressing. My putting also, was very random! I holed some good ones aqnd missed some silly ones. I have been putting quite well recently but seemed to lapse back in to all my bad habits.
I feel really disappointed mostly because I'm not playing much tournament golf this year as it is, so really wanted to make the most of the ones I did play in so feel like I let myself down a bit. That being said, I now have a while to build up to the next one and some proper time to devote to my practising.
Rach and I went away to Paris on thursday to see Paolo Nutini in concert and I must say it was absolutely brilliant!! I had really wanted to see him in concert for ages and was not let down at all. Thanks Rach, as always an awesome birthday. You always surprise me with brilliant things on my birthday and this was no exception....
