Brett Viboch - Professional Golfer

This week's Golden State Tour event at La Purisima was not was I was hoping for. It is one of the toughest courses I will play all year, but a very fair course at the same time. My scores of 84-78 were the highest I have shot in years in a tournament but I am not as down about my game as one might think. My putting was atrocious as I had 36 and 38 putts. Obviously I need to figure that part of my game out. But as for my swing and tee to green game, it is as strong as ever. The biggest weakness in my game lately is being able to ignore off-the-course distractions. It is easy to get down being on the road by yourself and I am having trouble focusing on only golf while on the golf course during my tournament rounds. This was a very strange week in that regard as I am striking the golf ball beautifully, yet put up embarrassing scores. I just had no intensity and had trouble focusing and getting in "the zone". I need to keep assessing my game and working hard. I know I am headed in the right direction as sometimes 1 step back helps you go 2 steps forward.
Upcoming are a couple 1-day events at The Bridges GC in San Ramond, CA. on Sunday May 2, followed by a pro-am at Callippe Preserve GC in Pleasanton, CA. on Monday May 3. Hopefully I can fine-tune the game over those rounds, put some cash in my pocket, and head down to Rancho Mirage, CA. with some confidence for the Golden State Tour's next stop May 5-7 at Westin Mission Hills Golf Resort.
'Til next time...long and straight...and don't forget to make those putts.
