Today I took the day to drive up to Toowoomba with my good mates Rika Batibasaga and Brett Rankin to have a practice round at City golf club. My main goal for the day was to get a good look at the course and begin to develop a plan for the tournament which begins next Thursday. The course is a Par 70 and not at all overly long. For what it lacks in distance it makes up for in tightness. No doubt there is an importance on putting the ball in the fairway. If you can manage this then you will have a number of short irons and wedges into the greens which will provide an opportunity to attack. I definitely think I gained a good understanding of the way I want to approach the layout next week and now plan to go away and work on the things I feel will be important next week.
My preparation will continue tomorrow morning with and early rise and workout at 5:30, then off to Indooroopilly to play. In the afternoon I am going to do some work with My coach Richard Harris. We will work a little on technique then switch over to discuss strategy for next week and work a little on some of the shots I might need.
I want to give everyone up in Minneapolis a special hello and wish the gopher golf team the best of luck in their upcoming events this spring. I know the boys have been working hard and are focused on achieving some good things this semester. We will all be watching your progress fellas. Go get em.
Good luck this week bro!
