Good day today! Teed off last group in the monday-qualifier and shot 67 (-5) to finish equal 1st and take one of the 5 spots available through the qualifier. It’s great coming into the clubhouse as last group, check the leaderboard with all the scores already posted, and then go, “Yeeessssss…..”

Tuesday I will have my first walk around the revamped Serapong Golf Course (the qualifier was held on the Tanjong Course). Wednesday will be my practice round day then we’re away.

You can find out more about the Singapore Open here. It is one of the Asian Tour’s biggest events, if not the biggest, and boast an impressive international field.

I’m really looking forward to soaking up the atmosphere tomorrow, getting amongst some of the golfing greats who I’ve aspired to growing up. I’ve gotta get a spot on the range to hit balls next to Phil somehow. Phil Mickelson is one of the players I’ve always admired growing up, left handedness obviously being a strong connection there, and it’s going to be great just seeing him for the first time.

That’s the fun of it all. So, what is better than seeing these guy’s?…. doing my own thing and beating them 🙂

I will be teeing it up at the Singapore Open monday-qualifying on the 29th October at the Sentosa GC, Singapore. I believe about 5 spots will be available for the championship proper through the monday qualifier.

The Singapore Open is one of the Asian Tour’s largest events and provides a great opportunity to play with some of the best players in the world. I have been to Singapore once before but only as a quick stop over to get to Malaysia. This should turn out to be a good trip.

Look no further:

Although I have not heard anything from the KPGA, I am led to believe the season is now complete for me in Korea, and most the foreign players for the matter. I will have to head back to the Korean Qualifying School in February if I desire to compete in Korea again. So, until then.

I must say four months on the road has pushed me physically and mentally. In the end I am pleased to have had the experience unfold in such a manner. It was anything but ideal performance wise, but is was ideal for learning to deal with the ins and outs of being a touring professional.

Personally I enjoyed the challenge that the Korean Tour presented. I’ve had to start taking steps to mature my thinking and course management towards a level that can compete internationally, not just on a few favoured Australian tracks.

But right now, refresh time! I look forward to the next few days relaxing in South-east Queensland…… Just gotta go to the beach.

Over the next month or so I’ll have time to apply what I’ve learnt from Korea and the USA before the latter season of events kick in. I sure look forward to that.

This event looks to be the last one for me in the Korean season. The event in North Korea scheduled in October will now not be for foreign players. Hey, maybe that’s a good thing. Although, when do you get a possible opportunity to go to North Korea?

…. didn’t happen. Here’s why:

We tried to play, but it just got worse. Eden Valley CC is so high up in the mountains we were actually in the rain cloud. Just for the sake of it Henry and I played all 18. Blind. Couldn’t see the pin from 30m off the green. No idea where the ball was going. We just enjoyed being out there and had great fun!
