I have just got back from the Portuguese
Masters at the Oceanica Victoria Golf
Club. The weather was brilliant and
the golf course was very good, unfortunately
the greens were in bad condition but
apart from that it was a great event.
I played with Ryder Cup captain Colin
Montgomery and Lee Westwood, the eventual
winner the first couple of days which
was all good fun.
I am very disappointed in finishing
tied 19th in the end especially after
such a good day on Saturday shooting
8 under low round of the year to get
up into 5th position. To follow that
with a 1 over on Sunday was very disappointing
but that's golf. I didn't put well
all week, I struggled a little bit
with my swing sometimes but I actually
felt like I played quite steady on
Sunday. I just couldn't hole a putt
and had a few bad breaks.
Overall I guess it's a steady week
and top 20 when not everything went
well so that was ok.
I have got a week off now before heading
to Spain for the Volvo World Match
Play which is a limited field, top
16 from various categories. Basically
16 of the best players from all over
the world meeting in one place and
I will be there for a week before
heading out to Asia for the final
3 tournaments of the year.
