Hey guys, I hope all of you are doing well wherever you may be and might do out there in this fantastic world of opportunities, dreams, love and laughter.
I am at home right now in Sweden which is very nice for a couple of days, it was snowing today and I have not seen such big snowflakes ever before and it was so pretty. These snowflakes got to fly free for so long from somewhere far far away, until they finally hit the ground, amazing. However, I know it has been long since the last time I posted a blog, I did have a nice break from golf during the winter weeks and did work on some other stuff and just enjoyed myself which was needed. I just got back from South Africa and I was there for 4 weeks practicing and playing two events. The biggest event of the two was the Joburg Open (European Tour event) that was hosted at Royal Johannesburg & Kensington GC. It was a fantastic 36 hole golf club with the East course being the best and toughest test of the two. It was a rainy week with lots of delays and very early mornings (4am morning alarms) but it was a pure pleasure to play such a great event. I played some quality golf as the first big event of the season and my game tee to green was on point, I was putting great too but not much dropped, but hey that is how it is sometimes. I shot 68-70-75 for a -2 total and finished 90th in the biggest tournament in the world, it was 210 players teeing it up last week.
I had to Monday Qualify for this weeks Tshwane Open at Pretoria CC, Pretoria, South Africa. We played one round at Irene CC for certain spots to qualify for the event. I played fantastic and shot 68 (-4) which was one short of getting in to the event.
My game feels very good this early and I am excited to get the 2017 season going, I have good feelings about this year. It will be a lot of fun and laughter this year, which is the things I try to focus on the most.
I hope you are with me this year as well, fasten your seatbelt, it will be a great ride!
Take care and I will see you again soon...
