Pro Win #2 and European Q-School

The past few weeks have been very exciting!

A few weeks ago at the Long Beach Open I shot scores of 73,73 - 146 to barely miss the cut.  Not too pleased with my performance, I re-evaluated my game and practice habits and things started coming together.  I am spending more time on my 8 iron to PW, which is bringing me more realistic birdie opportunities and eliminating the occasional missed green from inside 150 yards.  I am also running through a few different putting drills that focus on making pressure putts from 15 feet and in.

Last weekend I won a mini tour event by shooting -8 (64) in Reno, Nevada.  Everything seemed to come together and my putting was as solid as it has ever been.  I am hoping to keep this momentum going because I am booking my flight for European Q School in the next few days.   The first stage is in Portugal, September 24th - 27th!

I hope everyone is doing well and you are enjoying the last few weeks of summer.
