Looks great framed. Fantastic achievement, very well done. Did you know you were on for something special playing 18? If so how were the nerves?

Apart from each shot and "I can't get point one back now even if I NR the rest!" it was the thing I was thinking about most from the 11th hole onwards when I got to -3.

If the course record was much lower and out of reach I'd have played the last 2 holes differently, but you don't get that many chances to go after it so I played a couple of shots that I maybe wouldn't have if I was just trying to post a good score without risking ruining it.

The nerves were ok apart from the approach on 18 when I knew all I had to do was get down in 3 from 138yds. Tried to hit a 9 iron easy and pulled it 20yds.
If I hadn't made the 8' putt for par I'd still be beating myself up over that 9 iron now.

Great stuff. Looking at the card I was thinking after the birdie on 17 you must have needed a few deep breaths before driving off the 18th. Brilliant to get up and down at the last.
