Update!

I have been in off-season mode since Q-School ended the middle of November. With my finish at Q-School I finished about 40 places higher than Q-School last year. With this finish I should get into every event this coming season. Off-season mode includes more work at Dad’s office, calls for Sweet Lies Golf clothing line, gym, and golf-therapy time during the day in addition to practicing and taking lessons. I also managed to support my Wolfpack at a few football games!

Tuesday I am leaving for the PGA Show in Orlando. I will be working with the owners of Sweet Lies Golf at the show. This is my first time attending the show and have heard great things about it! On my drive down to Orlando I will be stopping in St. Simon’s Island, GA to stay with my host family from Gettysburg, PA who are staying in Georgia for the winter. St. Simons will be another new for me on the trip, after hearing so much about for years from living in South Carolina.

I am also currently training for the Myrtle Beach Half Marathon on Valentines weekend. Last year I was a part of the Low Country Physical Therapy relay team for which I ran a 5 mile leg. This year they did away with relay due to the half and full gaining popularity so I decided to push myself the extra step and do the half marathon.

Many of you participated in my tournament this weekend last year. I decided in light of the economy to not hold an event this year. I will kick-off my Futures Tour season March 20-22 in Winter Haven, Florida. This is one of a few new locations on the tour this year!
