You can't prepare for losing a play-off to a hole in one
I had been looking forward to going back to Las Vegas for some time as it was going to be my first experience returning as defending champion in the . It is obviously somewhere I feel comfortable and a course that suits me after .
Did I think I was going to go there and compete for the title again? I knew it was possible but I hadn't really practised at all since the a couple weeks before, and the couple of days that I had played the week before heading to Vegas I had been struggling quite badly.
It wasn't until my coach spotted something last Tuesday afternoon on the range that I even considered being in contention again. He noticed a small thing in my swing that I had probably developed from playing in the wind back home at the Dunhill Links, and as soon as I changed that my confidence came back instantly.
