                    Today, I hit the ball marginally better and was able to post a 68 in the final round. I only had one bogey on the card today and it was on the 18th hole. I was able to get myself within three strokes of the leader with three holes to play. However, as the main theme of the week, I just wasn’t able to control my ball striking which was costly in the end. I finished in a tie for 5th place for the tournament. I look forward to getting back to work on the game and competing again in the near future.

                         Today I struggled once again with my ball striking throughout the round. However, I was able to make some tremendous par saves and managed to fight out a 2 - under par 69. I am very happy with the fact that I was able to post a decent round even though my game was not very good. On the other hand, it is frustrating that I am not performing up to my ability. I am heading back out to the course to work on the swing and look forward to tomorrow’s final round. I would like to thank everyone that continues to follow my progress.

There was an hour delay on today’s round so I didn’t tee off until 1:54 PM. Today I was fighting my game the entire round, but was fortunate enough to make some crucial par saves to post an even par 71. After day one that puts me in a tie for eighteenth place. Tomorrow I tee off at 8:42 AM and look forward to playing well.

                  This morning I participated in a pro-am at the Surf Club in Myrtle Beach. The Surf Club will be the host course for the Carolinas Open May 5-7.  This morning I posted a 72 and our team shot a respectable 66. I enjoyed the company of my playing partners and it was a beautiful day. However, I am frustrated with the way I am playing and am just going to try to stay positive for this weeks tournament. Late in the round, I pulled a muscle in my back and hope that it fell better in the morning for the first round. Tomorrow I tee off a12:54 PM off #10 tee. I would like to thank everyone that is keeping tabs on my progress and hope to have good news to post tomorrow night.
