ALWAYS RESPECT AND LOVE YOUR PARENTS

In life there are at least two people who will give you unconditional love - your mum and dad will always be two of them. Never take this for granted. My mum passed away on Friday and she was my inspiration and her faith gave me the strength to inspire and encourage us to do our best. My mum was always interested in how we were doing and could tell me each week after reading the Courier who had done what. On occasions we need to be inspired and to get "in the zone" and if you believe it can happen it will. Miss you mum, night night.

59 - THE MAGIC NUMBER

Sunday saw Strathmore record what the PGA European Tour have been waiting on for years - a scratch 59.
3-4-3-4-3-5-3-3-2= 30 out
3-3-2-4-4-4-2-4-3= 29 in
25 putts - 13 putts out and 12 putts in.

This score was recorded today by the winner of the Leitfie Links Championship.

I would like to thank Strathmore Juniors for assisting me in achieving this score by repeated practice on Leitfie. I was determined to play well today and dedicate this score to my Mum who is very ill in hospital, she was so proud of her "wee boy" when I visited her in the afternoon.

BUSY WEEK AHEAD FOR MICHAEL AND ANOTHER FIRST

Sunday sees Michael tee up in the Scottish Junior Champion of Champions. The first Strathmore player to do so. This event is by invitation only and players have to have won certain qualifing competitions.(draw below) He also travels to America for the Nick Faldo series final the same night. Our best wishes go with Michael and I know he has the game to cope in both events and do himself proud.
