Nationwide Childrens Hospital Columbus, OH

This past week I was in Columbus, OH playing in the Nationwide's Children's Hospital Invitational. I got into this tournament as it was an invitational and the entries were ordered by the money list. The tournament was held at Ohio State's Scarlet Course. I had played the course my senior year of college for NCAA Regionals. It is a very demanding golf course but was really looking forward to playing it again!
I arrived Monday morning as usual and got in some practice and played 9 holes. Then Tuesday I went out early and played 18. Wednesday is a practice day as I am not in the Pro-Ams right now based on the money list.
The tournament started for me Thursday afternoon at 1:30. It was going to be a hot day!! The weather wasn't giving us any breaks... Thursday I played some decent golf just didn't have a low score in me as I wasn't hitting it all that well but definitely not that bad. I was even going into the 14th hole where the week took a turn for the worst. I tried hitting a cut off the tee and the cut ended up more like a slice... the ball ended on the right side of a tree so I had no swing other than a left handed one, I tried that. Needless to say bad things happened and made a triple bogey on the hole. Ended the rest of the round even so shot +3 on the day. Friday was much of the same unfortunately. I didn't have much game and shot +3 again... I missed the cut pretty easily. It hasn't been much fun missing the last two cuts but I have this week off and am going to put in some good work on the game and try and get everything together and make a run at the end of the yr!! Trying to stay positive! Thanks for following!! Next week heading to Omaha, NE for the Nationwide event there. Hoping to get a sponsors invite but at worse case I'm going to Monday Qualify in!
