In all fairness you were unlucky with some of those putts and near misses Brad.. for a second there i thought it was 1 of my highlight reels
... i see that quite a bit on tgc unfortunately.. be it from myself or friends that i play with.. some of those putts u had were rocketed at the hole
...not surprised some of them didnt go in!!
I'm sure i speak for quite a number on here when i say this but the putting on tgc baffles me sometimes.. i think its one of the best aspects of the game overall because you dont get gifted anything.. (even 4- 5 footers are missable for me)
..Its takes high skill to putt well consistently as you know.. however sometimes we all miss putts that make you think your eyes are playing tricks on you and other times your ball will go in the hole at pace and your a bit surprised! greeeeeeat game in that case
The moral of my story is simple Mr Garcia.. we all get nonesense thrown at us..thats very evident to me and many others i'd say.. its a question of how we deal with it once it happens! your one of the top 2 players in the world as a result of how you deal with it when things dont go to plan.. you still finish top 5 more often than not..thats admirable in itself! take Tom 'smash everything in site when its not going to planl' Humphries.. He stores ps4 controllers like a top tennis player stores spare racquets... this is the guy who smashed up a relatives expensive flatscreen when he hit his controller off the floor only for it to bounce up and shatter the screen!!
(true story,Tom will clarify, dont think he'll mind me sharing this)
and these mishaps and tantrums can cause Tom higher finishes in some tourneys
Finally its lookin like a brilliant win for Cairnsy!! all i can say is take a bow dude if its the case..
Unlucky Brad but still a great tourney, well played to Sweeney on another steady finish, and to my auld arch enemy Nath
solid tourney nath!also well played to Tom.. decent finish even though it wasnt 1 of your best weeks..also well done to my biggest arch enemy
Smiffers on beating me this week. nice seeing you return to a bit of form!
..special mention of congrats to Greg Bryant! brill tourney! espeically as it was on a sponsor exemption..well played to the rest of you who had solid tourneys and good luck to those of you still to finish...
