With EuroPro qualifying out of way there is a break of around 3 weeks before the EuroPro /Jamega Tours get under way
I had one event left to play on The Thomson Tour a rearranged tournament that was cancelled from earlier in year due to snow
So on the 16th April I headed off to Crews Hill Golf Club in Enfield North London
Playing the course blind no practise round I got underway with a bogey 5 on the 1st before another followed on the 5th hole
I soon got these back in great style after I hit the par 5 6th hole in 2 shots and rolled in the EAGLE to get me back to level par
A couple of bogeys on the remaining holes and I reached the turn in 2 over par
Onto the back nine and a stream of steady pars and one more bogey and I was now at +3 for my day – I didn’t get down though and went onto make 2 birdies in my next 3 holes and got back to +1 for the day.
A very shot 18th left me with a good birdie chance so I went for the green with my tee shot, unfortunately I just pushed in right and ended up behind a tree.
I chipped out, chipped onto green and two putts for a bogey my round was complete and I finished with 72 (+2)
I was pretty happy with my round, but soon was kicking myself over my missed chances when I found out my 72 was good enough for 2nd place and a 71 would have gave me a tie for the lead!
One shot away for the first win, but it’s getting closer!
