After a
poor return to the tour in Gleneagles
I travelled to Crans-sur-Sierre in Switzerland,
possibly my favourite event on tour.
I have been in contention there the
past two years and had high hopes of
getting back on track.

I was confident
coming into the Deutsche Bank Championship
even after the disappointment of The
Open. After getting caught up in the
tournament early I kept pace until Saturday
when I had the pleasure of playing with
Andres Romero who put in an amazing
round of golf to distance himself form
the field.

Argentina's
Andres Romero rounded off a heady seven
days when the 26 year old claimed his
maiden European Tour title at the Deutsche
Bank Players' Championship of Europe.
A week after he led The Open by two
shots with two holes to go but finished
third, Romero made no mistake this time.
He closed with a two under par 70 at
Gut Kaden to total 19 under 269, three
strokes better than Denmark's Soren
Hansen and England's Oliver Wilson.

When I first
saw the draw I was very pleased. 6:30am
on the Carnoustie links has to be a good
draw, benign conditions and pure greens
would be great. However, when I got to
the course at 5:00am it was a different
story.
