Selected for Round-Robin Tournament

Just now got a call from my club (Bangalore Golf Club) that I have been selected to play the Round-Robin tournament. This is by virtue of playing well in the last tournament, where I played 2 over my handicap (13) in two rounds of strokeplay.

This is an extremely good news. In this tournament I will be brushing my shoulders with top players of Bangalore Golf Club.

I Better get some practice before the tournament!

Who is more powerful..

This is a never ending debate going on between my six year old daughter and me. Who is more powerful Krrish or Amitabh Bachhan! For those who don't know these guys. Krrish is an Indian super hero enacted by actor Hrithik Roshan in the move of the same name. In this movie his father was given supernatural power by an alien called Jaadoo, which has passed on to Krrish. She has seen this movie at least 50 times, yes at least 50 times and remembers it frame by frame. Amitabh Bachhan is the superstar of Hindi cinema of my generation and still is one of the biggest stars of Hindi films. The debate started around couple of weeks back when me and my daughter were returning from Bangalore Golf Club after her practice and my round. She told me Krrish is the most powerful person in the world. Just to be a little nag, I said I think Amitabh Bachhan is more powerful than Krrish. God..Hell broke loose after that and she started..... Can Amitabh Bachhan save someone hanging from the tree? I said ...

Won Round Robin Tournament!

Remember I had mentioned that I have been selected as one of the top 8 golfer, for the tournament calendar year of July 06 to June 07, to play the round robin tournament. It happens like that each tournament carries points and you earn these point based on your performance in the tournament. I played only four tournaments for the calendar but did well enough in all four to earn enough points to finish 3rd on the points systems. Then Top 8 golfers play round robin against each other in matchplay format. So every one of them play 7 matches. I won 6 and lost 1, so had 6 points and I'm the winner. It was very tight till the last match which happened today. There are 3 golfers tied at 5 points for the second place. They will play sudden death playoff to decide the runner up. I will get my trophy in the year end ceremony on 2th June. This time it will be a winners trophy and much bigger than the last one. I will post the photograph after the ceremony.

The biggest problem in my swing!

I think yesterday I have finally found out what, of many, is the biggest problem in my swing. Its the balance. I struggle to maintain balance in my front swing and have a tendency to fall in front. Its results into the slice and shank that I hit sometimes with my short irons. I desperately need to fix that as soon as possible. Me and two friends of mine started playing Golf around the same time in the Fall of 2003. We played many many rounds together until career and other priorities did us apart. One is based in Singapore and the other is based in London now. It is beyond explanation how much I miss playing with them. We keep sharing news about our game, good & bad score regularly. The good news is that the buddy in Singapore will be travelling to India next week and we will play a round together, probably 2 rounds together. This is the best news that I have got since long. Since our game really becomes competitive, I should better visit Driving Range couple times before he com...
