1st Round Western Australian Open
After the 1st round of the Western Australian Open I have shot a score of 72 (+2) to be T68th.
With a hot start to the day, 2 under through 3 holes and recent form to be excellent there was belief of a low one coming although speed on the putting surface was not up to the task. The day featured strong winds and heavy rain at times but I knew this was not problem as my game is able to with stand these conditions.
Was not till the 5th hole where I made my 1st bogey of the day with a 3 putt for bogey. A hook off the 7th onto an adjacent fairway left me with no accurate yardage causing issues around the green making a double bogey not achieving a regulation up and down save.
Finishing with 1 over through the front nine I made birdie on 12 to move back to even par before I threw a four putt into the mix for another double bogey. This was not the last of the putting woes as I 3 putted 17 too. Just not my day on the greens where my ball striking was decent enough to actually shoot a good score. My 2nd round tee time is 12.30pm.
