If you read my last blog, you’d know that I complained that my golf game is utter trash as of late due to the lack of time I’m able to allocate to practice. Perhaps it isn’t trash, it’s just inconsistent! I say this because the week after the event where I missed a cut, I played the best golf I’ve played in months. Mark (other Victory Scholar golfer) and I were alternate shot partners while representing Ulster University at the Irish Colleges Match Play near Dublin, and we won!
Our team knocked out Trinity College and Cork in the quarter- and semi-finals, where Mark and I cruised to wins in our matches. In the final match, against fellow Belfast school Queens University Belfast, it all came down to Mark and me. We were clutch down the final few holes and won with a clinching birdie on the 17th hole.
They say winning solves everything. It doesn’t solve the paper I have due in a week, but it solves a lot of other problems. Hopefully there are more wins in store this spring!
