The first two rounds at the NGA Tour event here in McCormick, SC are done. I ended up missing the cut today by one shot! The first round played very difficult with a stiff breeze throughout the day. I bogeyed my last two holes yesterday to finish at one over 73. What was frustrating was I played steady for the majority of my round, but missed two routine birdies from short distance on 15 and 16. This angered me enough that I lost my composure on the last two holes and made two bogeys. I went to bed last night realizing that these tiny mental errors are completely unnecessary. Today was the most flawless I have ever been in my entire career as a pro. I missed countless 10 footers all day and I never let it bother me. I shot a 70 that easily could have been in the low 60s. What's disappointing is that I missed my second consecutive cut by a shot, but I did so this week happy with the way I executed down the stretch. I came unglued for 2 holes yesterday and it cost me, but the ramifications of that became a learning experience. I'm going to chalk this up as a blessing in disguise, because I will now be able to play a full practice round Sunday in Athens, Georgia to give myself a great chance to put together a game plan to successfully make it through the Nationwide qualifier. I've told you once, I'll tell you twice. I'm playing great golf. My results are soon to follow. Forward I go, and I refuse to let a few poor results define who I am as a golfer. I am a champion and I'm ready to go prove it soon. Stay tuned.
