Hello Hoosier Golfers:

I’m in Australia and ready to go!!!

The flight was brutal. A total traveling time of 20 hours. I flew out of LAX to Auckland, New Zealand, and then onto Melbourne, Australia.

The course this week, the Moonah Links in Victoria, Australia, is very challenging. The greens are very undulated, and it is hard to get the ball close to the hole. The key for the week will be the wind. We Hoosiers are used to dealing with the wind, so hopefully that will help me this week at the Moonah Classic.

The time change has been kind of hard to deal with, but with each passing day, I get more used to it. We are 16 hours ahead of Eastern time.

The game feels good. I have been practicing a lot during the past couple months and am looking forward to finally getting back into the tournament mode. Thanks for all the support, and we will talk to you next week.

Good day,

CC
