Moroccan Golf Classic

What a week!!! If being in Morocco with several friends from the eGolf Tour wasn't enough I was able to win the event! It was pretty much a life changing event as I am going to be staying in Europe / Africa for a few more weeks maybe longer? With this win it puts me in good position to possible chase a European Tour Card as the top 20 on the money list will get one!
Lets start from the beginning of the week. We started out leaving from JFK on Sunday the 13th. From there we landed in Casablanca on Monday. We played several practice rounds Monday-Wed. The tournament started on Thurs. I opened the week with a -3 69. I played well, made 4 birdies on the par 5s and one other birdie followed with two bogeys. It was a great start as I played in the final group of the afternoon. The course is right on the ocean so it tends to get windy every afternoon. The second round I shot -6 (66) to end tied for the lead after two rounds. Pretty cool but the week was still just starting. The third round I shot 72 to fall 3 shots off the lead. I didn't play well at all during the third round, I hit the ball the worst of all week but was able to scramble all day and make pars. The third day looking back was probably the most important day as I had the chance to shoot myself right out of the tournament but was able to hold on and only be 3 shots behind the leader.
Then the final round. I played very solid from tee to green all day! It was a lot of fun. I missed only one green and was able to get that up and down for par. I turned at -1, 2 shots back of the leader and sitting in 3rd place. The back nine I shot -3! I made birdies on 11, 13, and 16. The birdie on 11 was a two putt on a par 5. On 13, a par three straight downhill playing around 170 was a tricky hole as the pin was back left just over the water and long of the pin was a nasty bunker. I hit a great 8 iron to about 15ft. Ended up making the put on the last dying roll to move to -12 for the week! Then made two solid pars on 14 and 15. The 16th hole is the signature hole on Royal Golf El Jadida. It opens up to the ocean. Plays 175yds to the front but the pin was 40 yds on to make the shot play 215. I hit the best 3 iron of the week to 6in! I finished with 2 pars to win the event by 2 shots.
I can't say enough how much fun it was. Winning is one thing but being with some guys from our tour back in the states and the atmosphere was really cool. Thank you all for following and I will keep updates as often as I can.
This week I am at La Gomera, Canary Islands just off the Morocco coast. It is a awesome place!
