ANZ Masters Australien
The practice round on Thursday had been cancelled due to heavy rain. All practice areas had been closed too. Therefore it was not a surprise that the Pro-Am which should have taken place on Wednesday had been cancelled too in order to let all players give the chance to play the course prior to the tournament.
I played in the first group on Thursday morning. During the whole round i felt confident. Due to the rain the course was soken wet and this means the ball would not roll, more having a back spin on the Drive... The course therefore got very long. I even needed for second shots long irons or even woods into the greens.
The big mistake happened on the ninth hole, whereas i missed my drive... on top of that i even hit the greenbunker, which was very wet. My first bunker shot remained in the bunker and so on... in the end i had to write a tripple bogey (+3) on my scorecard, a sad ending of the round.
With mixed feelings i started the second round. I knew i had to give everything and play my best golf in order to enter the final field. I felt comfortable with my swing and i managed to play four birdies but also four bogeys which means a par round of 72 shots. I unfortunately missed the cut by three shots. And immediately i was thinking of the 9th hole of previous day where i played a tripple bogey (+3).
After each round i analyse my rounds. This time i learned the lesson that i always have to give a 100% and remain concentrated until the end of the round. If you want to succeed within Top players worldwide, this is an absolutely MUST!
