Sunday May 21, 2023 - US Kids

 Another inconsistent tournament with 8 pars, 6 bogeys, two double bogeys, and two quads.   Both quads were a result of tee shots going OB.   The course was in excellent condition and despite a very encouraging practice round on Friday with Hudson, he had to settle for a 90.   The good news is that there were a couple of phenomenal drives, some great approach shots, and two perfect 3 woods on the par 5's.

 The boy and I had an absolute blast with Cliff and his buddy Normy.   Normy looks very much like Jim Furyk.   I LOVED this course - lots of elevation changes in a gorgeous setting.   The kid shot an 81 and notched his 10th birdie of the year when he drove the green on the short par four 9th hole and two putted from the first cut.   His reward was a ride in Uncle Cliff's Ferrari back to his place where we hung out for a couple of hours before our flight home.

 The kid won his 3rd school tournament at Shalimar by 6 strokes.   He was +5 on nine holes and was pretty consistent.

 Well the boy played a decent round but had one big miss - the fifth hole.   It made no sense.   Total duff on the 130 yard par 3.   Hozel shot that went 80 yards left.   He hasn't done that in a long time.   Second shot went of the back of the green.   Third shot was a lob wedge that he chunked.   Two putts from there for a nast double.   He was +1 on the other eight holes though, good enough for second place.
