Doubles Knockout

[Imurg]

Its the 1st round of the Mens Doubles Knockout tomorrow at 7.30 and guess what? Its going to be blowing a gale again just like my desparate medal 2 weeks ago. But this time - just to keep it interesting its going to lash it down with rain. The Golfing Gods are just saving it up for me...

But never fear - I am a different thinker now. Keep the ball in play and don't rush. That's the gameplan.

Let you know tomorrow how it goes. I'm giving shots to the other 3 guys - 8 and 3 to the opponents and my partner gets 7. If I play like I can I'll wipe the floor with them all

in my dreams....................

Good luck. Play well. Let the golfing gods smile upon you.

Life, it would appear, is back to some semblance of order as my partner and I won 3&1 with me playing a really good round. Apart from holes 2 and 3 where lost balls took me out of play, I finished 16 holes in 5 over par gross. Good job too as the other guys were playing well. My partner didn't have a good day but as it happens it didn't matter.
2 birdies and 2 more lip-outs for birdies mean the game is back from its vacation.
2 ex-Captains in the next round - loads of shots to give away but I actually felt no pressure today giving shots away. The others seemed to feel obliged to perform on their shot holes and then let themselves down - and I generally halved the holes with pars.
Life is good again.............
