A great season finish

Dubai

Countdown Dubai

I travelled to Dubai and i was really looking forward playing the final tournament of the season. I practiced the weeks before in south africa, together with my brother Martin. We had a great time and practiced a lot, happy to see that he is in good shape too.

Improvement

An ongoing target

This tournament in Dubai will be the last chance for me to get enough Order of Merit points and to ensure a full exempt. 2011 tour card. It would save me a trip to Spain to the final tourschool stage.

Results

73 and 73

The first couple of days i felt comfortable with my swing and i played solid golf. Sometimes i was wondering why i would not score lower… Anyway i largely entered the final field, yes, i made the cut! Happy and motivated as i was approaching my goals.

Weekend

A round of 80 shots

Playing among the best 60 players during that weekend was an incredible experience. Michelle Wie, Laura Davies, Lee-Anne Pace, Tanja Elesogui etc just to name some players, who would fight for victory that weekend.

I had a bad start and i would not find into my game. After nine holes i was +7. Thanks to my caddy (brother mathias), i had a great support at my side. He cheered and motivated. The second nine holes i started all over again as every shot would count.

Final day

69 (-3)

The final round i started off very early in the morning. To be exact at 7.39 am. I was determined to play at least a par round, i needed it to ensure a 2011 full exempt. tour card. The first two holes i birdied each and during the whole round i felt confident and determined. I finished as i started with a birdie and i signed a score of 69 shots. Only three other players had a better score than mine.
