ooo a hole in one and an eagle?? You do owe us beer. What's the local brew you're sending our way? Haha. Well being an Aussie, I guess I better send out some fosters. I'll let you in on a secret though, we don't drink the stuff down here! Lol! I found that out when I went travelling there! Tooheys New or Victoria Bitter... I believe! Would move to Oz in a heartbeat!

Ok, got my practice rounds in. played pretty well, -13, -11, -13, -10, -11. One of the 13's and 11's was in higher winds so felt ready to go. I assume it was nerves because I was SHANKING off the teee once it started. Not slicing, not hooking, Shanking. I hit one off the 6th tee that I swear the white line did a 90% turn (as did the ball). I literally walked off the course on hole 6. I will pick it back up later today, but OMG #thumbsiezures

Long way to go and with your practice rounds you're clearly doing very well. Come back fresh and get your first 2 rounds in.

I have put too much pressure into being top 10 money list and it got to me mentally I think. -2 through 5 isnt great on this course, but I can still cobble together a good 1st rd finish.

Agreed that round is recoverable. I started E or -1 through 4 in at least two of my rounds so scoring early isn't necessary. Shake off the thumb yips, grab a beer this evening and roll in those birdies. You got this!

Haha, we say down here that the reason it's Australia's highest selling international beer is because we all think it's garbage, so they sent it overseas because the foreigners don't know any better!

I think I am going to be sick. I literally feel ill right now. Needing only an average showing to earn my top 10 PGA/Euro card I played the worst two round in probably 6 months. I found places on the course that the designer did not know where there. Decorative rocks 30 yards off fairway, yep right behind them. 67, 77. Missed cut. On to Plan B, C, D for getting my tour card.

I literally fell off my seat when I saw those scores! So sorry it didn't work out this week for you mate. And if it's any consolation, I saw some of those rocks too!!
