| Re: Under pressure Cool stories. I have never ever ever missed a putt under pressure which I have HAD TO MAKE! NEVER!
My best though was this, I was playing in my Clubs Junior Open. I was in the first group off with a under 16 welsh international boys player I knew I had the talent to beat him. After 9 holes he was +2 I was +3. After 15 holes we were both +7, wet windy day and man was it getting tense (we have always had abit of a rivalry going on) no words were being said it was like playing with Tiger lol.! So 16th hole he goes for the green with driver I just hit an iron off the tee and wait for him to make the mistakes, he hits it in the bushes I hit my 2nd shot just right of the green and he chips out the bushes chips on and taps in for par. I HAD to get up and down in my mind, I had one hell of a nasty chip I had to flop it over a bunker and I was lucky to get it within 15ft. So I had a 12fter to keep myself in it and HOLED IT now it was awesome pressure on 17th tee, short par 3. I stick my p wedge to 4ft and he hits it over the green. he chips down to 3ft and i make birdie and he misses for par!!!! Now im
+6 and he is +8 I totally mess up the 18th hole and he makes par and i have a putt for double bogey from 35ft and if I hole I win because I have had the better back nine!! I step up pretty confident and ram it in for a double bogey and the win! IT WAS AWESOME! Now his mate called ben who also plays for wales I have beaten home and away in junior league 2&1 and 6&5!! Bout time I go to welsh trials i think! |
