  Hello, I'm Martin from Llangybi in South Wales.  I have been playing on WGT for 17 days and having a lot of fun. It is a big learning curve for me, and I am having the most terrific struggle with putting (I'm sure this is the case for a lot of new players, though.)

  This is my best shot to date: Double Eagle from 221yd on Kiawah:

  Wow.  17 days.  I've been on this site for two and a half years and I still don't have one.  You make me sick, Martin!!  17 days!!  I gotta go throw up now.  ;-)

  Very nice indeed.  I know many players who have been here years and can play brilliantly but still haven't managed that elusive double eagle.

  Here's the replay for anyone interested in seeing it.   Funny thing is now I play with expensive balls and clubs I don't get anywhere near enough run out to pull off a shot like that.  If I land short of the green, even with some top spin, I rarely roll onto it.

  Very well done.
