On the golf side of things my Sat was poor shooting 4 over par. I struggled for timing and with my swing all day. I did my best to hang in but a double bogey late sealed my fate. I did however feel like I realised why I was struggling as I was waiting to hit my 4 iron into the 17th hole. I tried what I thought and hit that shot to about 6 inches from the hole for an easy birdie. Making a mental note I brought that thought to the course for the final day. I played brilliantly only missing the 1 green in regulation and shooting 5 under par. Great reward for my efforts and patience the day before. So a good week, made some money, got a watch from Michael Hill for making the cut, met an Australian sporting legend and visited an amazing place in Queenstown....week of the year so far!!
Hi all, just realised I was a little slack on updating you from the final two days in NZ. So as many of you will know the outcome I will be very brief. I played with Nick Farr-Jones in the final two days as it was a pro am format. That was great getting to know a Wallaby and World Cup winning captain. Nick is a great, down to earth guy, not the best golfer but I reckon only because he doesn't get the chance to play much. I am going to try and entice him to play a little more when he is in Brisbane or I am in Sydney.
