Yup, and possibly good for his development.
gotta keep going at it and sticking yourself in these situations. Learning happens on the edge of uncomfortable
I think its why Augusta were able to spare the Masters invite the were holding, and issue it to Niemann.

Charlie is massively overhyped because of who he is, if he does want to make it as a pro, he has a lot of work to do - but hopefully he can take some positives from today and use them to strengthen.
The media fawning over him though, is absolutely ridiculous.

He is 15 , and clearly has a lot of ability
Plays of plus 3 - he is ability is not being overhyped
Of course the media are going to be all over him - he is the son of the biggest golfer on the planet and is looking to become a professional golfer himself
He has put himself out there and given something a go

wasn’t his niece supposed to be the next big thing?
No, she was just an LET pro

One of the ways that Tiger developed was that his dad only allowed him to into competition levels where he had a good chance of winning, this fostered his supreme confidence.
He'd only advance when he was capable enough. Add that confidence to his supreme ability and you have a winner.
I'm surprised he allowed Charlie to get so far out of his depth.

Charlie doesn't appear to have played in many tournaments (none in the AJGA), and has won hardly anything. In contrast, the other 15 year old in the field, Miles Russell, is a multiple winner, and ranked in the top 100 in the World Amateur Rankings. He shot 2 under, still not enough to qualify, but perhaps an indication that experience is as important as ability at that level.

Torque GC bossing the leaderboard in the Asian Tour international series event in Oman with David Puig of Fireballs leading.
They are the class of the field though to be fair.

Well I hardly caught a shot of any of that from the final two days. Left home for the Southern Alps on Friday afternoon, arrived about 6pm last night, checked into the hotel, had my trousers pulled down for 2 pints and a pizzathen came back to the room to watch the last few holes but couldn’t fight the much needed sleep.
Anyway, here are the updated results of the Fantasy League - Bennys Ballers head and shoulders above the rest this week, which also sees him take 1st place in the overall standings.

For some making the cut is a huge achievement and these sort of moments are what makes the game so great , it’s not always about the top ten players

I often think that these stories are the best ones in Pro Golf. The events close to the end of the season where players need such and such a finish to retain their card are often the tensest and most absorbing.
Very, very rich people becoming even richer can sometimes be unedifying.

The make of the golf tours were great
100’s of players played in the events on both sides of the pond
There was the odd event both sides were it was loaded with a lot of the top players
But then the majors were the events where it’s the very best
All the other events are full of stories from Monday qualifiers, players trying to earn their cards , keep hold of them , careers being revived - the sport is always about more than just a handful of golfers

Finding this PGA Tour event a hard watch.
No atmosphere, no big names apart from Finau and it feels like he is only there as defending champ.

Well it is an off week.
The big names have a rest ahead of PGA National next week, and the lesser names get a chance of success.
It’s what happens when a tour has a large field.
I’d suggest not watching if you don’t enjoy golf.

These videos have made my week. Ronald Rugumayo made birdie on the last, to shoot 70 today and make the cut at the Kenyan Open. This is the first cut ever made by a Ugandan golfer on the DP World Tour. Absolutely incredible story. That’s growing the
