71 (-1) to finish 27th and secure a 2008 PGA of Australia tour card. Yee ha! Now I can play in events in Australia next year which is fantastic.

It’s nice to get the job done.

PGA Tour of Australasia – Final scores here

68 (-4) to move to T24.

A very long day for all the players. Over 12 hours at the course.

I got in 1 hole before the first storm delay. I made a poor double straight away (headless) but I recovered the two shots through to the 13th hole where we had another storm delay. When we got back out there four straight birdies helped me move up the leaderboard.

73 (+1) to stay T51. Tomorrow I will be paired with 1999 Australian Masters Champion, Craig Spence. I still remember that 6 iron he fired into 3 feet on the 72nd hole to beat Norman by a shot.

75 (+3) to be T51. Had a rough start, 5 over through 5, but clawed a couple back.

The final stage gets underway tomorrow at what is a fantastic venue, Peninsula North Course. I love the course. It has such a great blend of short and long holes which can play very differently in the different winds. There are a lot of risk reward options off the tee. The greens are going to be very quick, so it will be a good test and great fun.

69 (-3) to finish +1 total. So that will miss out on going to final stage by a few shots.

I played solid golf today. Turned it around after a poor effort yesterday. Just needed a few little putts to drop, but not to be. Close, but yet so far.

77 (+5). Ouch. I hit it so bad I didn’t deserve much more than that. Getting a ball stuck up in the coconut trees doesn’t help 🙂

I’ll need something special tomorrow to get in the top 15%.

But it’s time to go relax down in the water. We’ve got a great pool and little beach here at the Sutera resort. The water is so warm, it’s fantastic.

70 (-2). That should edge me up a few places. One eagle (on the 18th), two birdies and two bogeys.

Gee, ended up with a 73 (+1).

I woke up with a customary migraine and was vomiting in the morning. Felt absolutely terrible and draged my body around today. I was just happy to get through 18 holes and keep myself in it. Time to get some good sleep and freshen up for a 6:45am tee time tomorrow.
