I am currently watching the Masters at home and while admiring Fred Couple’s game, I got inspired to write this blog. I believe, this year’s Masters of Augusta has been one of the most expected ones in various years because of Tiger’s comeback after 5 months not playing competitive golf. But what called my attention the most is the veterans game, or should I say seniors?? As a golfer myself, it is fantastic to have pros like Fred Couples and Tom Watson still showing their talent and golf experience on the course. What a Masters has been this year!!
Time to talk about my game/first experience on the LPGA. As you all know, the KIA Classic in Carlsbad at the end of March was my first tournament. I went a week before that to have a fitting at the Callaway performance center with state-of-art practice facilities. I really enjoyed my time there, and the service I got was royalty level. Thank you Lance, thank you John, thank you Roger.
The course at La Costa was very beautiful with a great layout. Very strategic holes, narrow fairways and playing over 6600 yards long. All the hard work during the winter is starting to pay off. My technique is better than ever, and that’s just improving week after week. I felt calm throughout the entire week, being very gentle with myself. I had no expectations, I just went out there and have fun. The crowds were unbelievable, and it was an amazing experience to interact with them. I must name Joel, Carmen and her husband who were my best fans during the week, I felt overwhelmed by their support. I finished tied 46th for the tournament, not a bad start, but I am determined to work myself all the way up in the leaderboard.
Next week is Mojo 6 time for me, and I can’t wait to walk down the fairway of the Cinnamon Hill course. It is match play format, which has always given me good memories.
THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN TO ALL THE FANS WHO VOTED FOR ME IN THE MOJO 6 WEBSITE!!
Looking forward to writing my next rookie blog after Jamaica!
