Getting there!

Hi all.


What a week its been! I'm home after a long three weeks on the road and am glad to have had allot of positive come from my travels in East London and Johannesburg. I managed to finish in a tie for 30th at -6 in the Joburg Open (the final European Tour event for January in SA) and can comfortably say that I have once again proved to myself that I really do belong on tour and can handle myself at that level.

The nerves were flying and I must admit that I was a little too up and down emotionally but with that I think I'm getting closer to being able to manage my nerves during these long competitive weeks!! Its has been especially long for me because I've had to Monday qualify into every event thus far but no complaints because even Ernie said that he had to do it and it's all part of paying your dues.....

There wasn't a funny story that stood out but allot of positive things did come out of the week....

A quick story was that through 27 holes I was only three shots off the lead and noticed this while walking to the tenth tee, during the next five holes I managed to think about it and drop four silly silly shots before I kicked myself mentally and birdied two of the last four to get the ship moving in the right direction... The brain is so powerful that I'm extremely upset looking back on the situation and having dropped all those shots but at the same time it's extremely reassuring to know I stepped my mental game up and birdie coming in; making it comfortable inside the cut line.

I have the next two and a half weeks off, in which I will be celebrating a 27th birthday on the 31st of January!!! along with that it's just working out and practicing to get ready for the next three summer Sunshine Tour events in February.

I'll be blogging again before the Di Data being played in Fancourt early next month.

Thanks again for all the support and God Bless!
