Hopefully not my last. I'd like to at least play in this one every year if not more. I was 3 strokes behind first place.

Good stuff! Nice shooting.
Yeah, definitely a good feeling, especially when you get so accustomed to being in that sort of situation and failing, to finally succeed is a good feeling.

Yeah, for sure. In our flight there were 21 golfers and after the first day the leaders were +2 and last place was at +4, so everyone was right there. Competition is definitely a whole different feeling. It's hard to explain, just have to experience it.
