Score card for Semi-Final match in Accenture tourney with my long time friend paulmcm -
It wasn't a pretty match but it certainly was real tight and tense from the start to the very last putt ! Just a great match with Paul and I must admit i thought i had blew the game about 2/3 in to the match !
I missed 2-3 easy short putts to take the lead thru the first 5 holes when Paul wasn't going well with his putter. Then on the difficult #15 i finally made a decent putt after a good approach shot and won the hole. That gave me a big lift to steady myself for the last few holes as I knew Paul would come on strong. On the 17th we both made good approach shot and Paul drained a long putt and me missing a 11 ft putt so it's now AS going in to the last hole ! Paul was unlucky to miss time his shot into the tough left bunker and i left my approach short on the fringe with the pin being at the middle front. Paul's bunker shot was a little long as expected and i pitched to about 1.5 ft. Paul's last putt drifted to toward the hole nicely but picked up speed a little and hit the lip of the hole to end an excellent match.
Thanks Paul for the game and well played in the tourney mate, it was anyone's match out there today and I was fortunate to have a little luck in the end, and that really was the only thing that separated us today.
