Last weekend, the Verizon Heritage tournament at Harbour Town Golf Links was a nice homecoming. You all know I love South Carolina. It is the best place to live and I had so many friends and fans there. And Hilton Head is a beautiful place...

My first round felt great. I was hitting the ball real well and could have taken it a bit lower, but I was happy. Then in the second round, things took a turn for the worse when I shot 10 on the par-4 10th hole. I'd had some trouble with my three wood and I pulled it bad off the tee. I decided to drop in front of the water and play a big hook to the front of the green and try to make 5.  I pulled the heck out of that shot, which again went into the water, and it spiraled into my next shot that also went in the water. I guess I was playing so well that I got to the point I was just trying so hard to make a score that may not have been reachable and it was just one of those things. On the positive side, I was 3 under for 35 holes and 6 over on 1 hole...

I kept fighting and almost missed the cut by two strokes despite that big number. I guess that's just my nature... I don't back down and I never quit.

My plan now is to keep hitting it the way I've been and go make some money.

Thanks to eveyone for their support!
