First Charles tour event of 2023. Hastings open. Finished in 14th place. Shot 7 under for my 3 rounds. Would have liked to be 3 shots better but really happy with my last 18 holes to shoot 67.

Adidas 6’s at Royal Wellington GC. Quick turn around, 1 days rest after winning NI Under 19’s in Taupo and back into it. Definitely lethargic during my first round. Unusually fast and undulating greens didn’t help my cause either. Finished with a 75. ? 2nd round started really well with some nice birdies but fell off at the end. Finished 1 under, leading tournament by 3 shots.
Final round. Off my game the first 9. Had glimpses of great golf throughout the day but too many silly mistakes and ended up in a tie for 2nd place. Really disappointed but learnt how important rest and recovery is after tournaments. Hastings Open is coming up in a couple of weeks. It will be the first Charles tour event of the year. Really looking forward to it.
