It's been unhealthy luck; the wind made the course difficult for sure pictures that I executed effectively however ended up badly. The course was robust due to the rain, as water accrued within the low areas of the fairways, and in case you needed to play from there, it was robust to regulate the ball flight. It was a disgrace on the seventeenth and the tee shot on the 18th. One of the best second as a champion was the ovation on the twelfth. I'm far behind, however there's nonetheless loads to go…"

In any other case, I discovered the course a bit longer however just like the apply days. The rain that fell was clearly noticeable on the greens. From tee to inexperienced, it performed just about the identical, slightly longer as a result of the ball didn't roll like on the opposite days."
