I had a bit of grumpy period a few years back, but that's over now, |
I had surgery on my left knee earlier this year and yesterday I was in all sorts of trouble with it, |
I pulled my tee shot a bit left but it didn't deserve to be two feet off the ground in the middle of a bush. It's been a funny year with Thomas (Bjorn) taking an 11 in the last round at the K Club but I think it's safe to say that's one thing that will never happen again. |
I spent the last two weeks chipping harder than ever. I probably spent more time in the chipping green in the past nine days than I'd done in the first 20 years of playing. |
I think it's as a result of trying to fade the ball on the range on Tuesday and putting too much weight on the knee, but I took some anti-inflammatories and hopefully I will be okay for tomorrow. |
I woke up this morning and told my wife I didn't think I would be able to play. Hopefully it is going to be all right for tomorrow, but you never know. |
It's a shame but it was just one of those things that happen, |
It's good to play with the youngsters and show them how it's done sometimes. I had a bad spell in the 1990s but the last three years I've really got back into it and practiced hard and I still enjoy it. |
That's 109 years between us but I shot Pete's age today so he's happy, |
They really are things that might have meant something to employees. It was a fairly active bidding process. |
