U-21 WGC. A personal view.

Well that’s it for the Irish!

The other five guys had placing matches so we all went in for an early start. To be perfectly honest I’m so tired I can’t really remember who came where and who beat who and what the scores were. The only thing I really remember is that Jack Gleeson recorded a great win over Danny. I think this left Danny with the wooden spoon or whatever the croquet term is.

I waited around supporting the others and waiting until my second round match against Dina Saad at five.
