Switzerland

Home game in Losone

Difficult and wet conditions for everybody in Switzerland. But we played 54 holes.

Pro Am

Zurich Open

The Zurich Open is a great tournament and very well organised. Not only big shots from industry and the business but also great players from the European Golf scene. This year Thomas Björn and Darren Clark were playing the Pro-Am.

I started with a solid 73 (+1) and was ranked in the middle field. Unfortunately i played a nasty 77 (+5) the following day. I never got into the game but it has been a great preparation for the upcoming tournament in Losone, which is really important to me.

Losone

Home game

Back again in Losone, the home course of the Deutsche Bank Ladies Swiss Open. I was lucky to practice on the course already a week before and as usual the course was in great shape. Unfortunately the weather was bad and it was raining cats and dogs. The concequences were: - No Pro-Am and no first tournament day as the rain would not stop.

There was casual water all over the course and made the game almost impossible.Therefore the tournament director decided to reduce the tournament on 54 instead of 72 holes.

Something new

Start on Friday

Since i am on tour, it has been the first time in my young career that the tournament started on a Friday.This was not bothering me as i felt good and i was very comfortable with my drives and irons. The first round ended with a 73 (+1). This was close to the cut and i knew that i had to score better the next day.

Saturday & Sunday

Steady long game

My 2nd day starting time on Saturday was 14:35 pm due to heavy rain and a stunderstorm. I immediately felt comfortable with my swing and rhythm. But on the greens, putts just would not fall. On the second nine (i started on Hole Nr 10), my irons to the green got very close. So i started to birdie and i finished the second nine 33 (-2) therefore i would enter the final field and play the next day.

I knew i could make a big jump on the leaderboard if i would continue playing as the last nine holes of previous day. A 75 (+3) the last day resulted in a 57th total ranking of the tournament. Not really satisfying but i think i am very close to a good  result. This gives me more drive for the upcoming tournaments.
