its now offical, and ive got some hardware to prove it. timmy's back!
not lets get this straight first okay, i didn't win. but definitely there couldn't have been a more deserving champion than george foo. i mean really i couldnt be prouder of the guy. he played great today and it was really great having a go at each other head to head down the stretch.
i honestly can say that this week was the best golf i've played since hong kong amateur all the way back in october last year. i mean i really hit the ball great this week, and finally played the way i should be playing. but when its not your week, it aint your week. the putts didnt drop and there just wasnt much luck on my side.
but i really hung in there and grinded my butt off, fought tooth and nail down the stretch and really am very pleased with myself. its a great confidence booster for my closing stretch of tournaments and i cant wait to get going!
shot 73 today for a two day total of 148 (+4), one shot behind georgie who played great coming home and shot a 72 for a 2 day total of 147 (+3)
but i'm like freggin pissed that joe goh pulled strings to get lion to play in the first group out. using the excuse that he had a qualifying tee time to make at sentosa. and the damn sga allowed it! i mean come on, the demographics are so different when youre playing the championship flight of a tournament to playing with some guys who have a snowballs chance in hell of winning. i mean there's just no pressure there and to everyone it was really unfair.
honestly, if he was paired up with me and george today he wouldnt have stood a chance, and we're all pissed. thank God george won!!! blardy chicken! kaaneenaa! cause of that i finished 3rd
but hey, all time best performer in dbs history. 4 top 3s out of 5 starts, 1 win, never out of the top 10. its my tournament.
well, had lunch and showered up. gonna go out with the rest for a cs celebration party later. might blog after that...go georgie! now no longer the best player to have never won a major :) welcome to the club brother :))
spread the lovin'
