I was really looking forward to this week as I was staying with a great family I met the year before so I arrived early on the Sunday evening.

I went and played 9 holes on Monday and then practiced the rest of the day, I had worked really hard the previous week with my coach on hitting a safe shot as in the last few tournaments I had really struggled from round to round.

The practice all week went very well and I felt that I had really prepared well for the tournament, the course and conditions were both very different to the year before, the golf course it situated along the beach and boasts some fantastic views from the 10th and 11th tees.

Again I really struggled with consistency through the first 3 rounds with some great golf mixed in with some very poor golf shots, it really has been the story of the season so far, so I made the cut on the mark with a birdie down the last hole then a very nervous wait for the rest of the afternoon!!

The 3rd round started great for me, I was 2 under through 6 holes and was hitting it great then as in previous weeks I hit some terrible golf shots and was really hanging on.

The week ended poorly and I finished in 64th place, I feel like I am really close to playing good golf and a little more consistency through the week and I feel like i will be in contention, a week back home then then I go to Metz where I finished 2nd last year so its a place and a golf course I love, lets hope I can kick start my season there!!

A big thankyou to JP and Ghislane for there hospitality for the week.
