Hello everybody,
Just thought I would update after playing stage 1 Europro qualifying. The venue was due to be Slaley Hall, Northumberland. I travelled up on Monday and played 18 holes. The weather was really bad and most of the course was under water. After 9 holes off practice on the Tuesday the weather really took a turn for the worse and the course became unplayable.
The PGA made the decision to cancel the event from this venue and move to De Vere Oulton Hall in Leeds which I had never played before. As the PGA Europrotour were keen on making sure 36 holes of qualifying were played it meant no practice!!
I made contact with Chris Hanson who had played there quite a few times and got some inside knowledge on the course which was really useful as there are a few tricky holes. The weather was pretty rough over the 2 days and I held my game together quite nicely posting rounds of 73-72 to end up finishing T-7. I was quite happy with that having never played before.
So next week I am off to Frilford Heath for final qualifying. Should be a good week. I am rooming with my brother for the week at "The Dog House" which sounds interesting to say the least. Should be fun.
Also looking forward to The Masters starting this week. Interesting to see how Tiger plays after his break from the game. I am like most people and believe he will be the one to beat!
That's all for now...
Update next week
Scotty
