Shell Houston Open - Qualifier

Score: Too High To Count

Sorry for not having this post up sooner. As soon as we finished our round on Monday, Erika and I drove straight back to New Orleans. It was a long day and yesterday was spent getting unpacked and almost 7 hours of practice. Why? Because apparently what I've been doing isn't good enough. As Monday's round was proof, my shots are simply not consistent enough and putting continues to be a struggle. This was one of those days where there isn't much to report. I was able to use the weekend to work on my swing and honestly felt really good going into the round. But again, I just wasn't able to transfer it to the course. For every solid shot, there were twice as many bad ones to follow. I just wasn't able to get into any sort of groove.

So that's that. Not exactly the start to the 2010 season I was hoping for, but it wasn't due to a lack of effort. If anything, perhaps one of my faults at times is to try too hard. Regardless, I've decided that I'm going to use these next couple of weeks to work even harder. I'm going to up the amount of time spent practicing all the areas of my game, try to play at least 9 holes a day if not more and continue to hit the gym. There's one thing that I do know and that is that failure is not an option. I'm gonna do whatever it takes to get better and that's just the way its going to be.

The next event on the schedule is the pre-qualifier for the Zurich Classic on April 16th. That will be played at La Tour Golf Club in Mathews, LA. I plan on getting down there to get as many practice rounds in as I can before the actual tournament. I'm looking forward to seeing better results in the near future. Hope all is well!!!
