St. George Golf Club ~ 6/11/2009

Today I was in shock hole after hole as I caddied Bailia. I have been a NERVOUS wreck knowing I would be there to coach her by myself! Starting out on number ten she hit a good drive, nice second shot and KILLER third shot, chipping it just inches from the hole! She did an AMAZING job shooting 36, which is 9 strokes less than last weeks tournament!
The first two tournaments that Bailia played in they separated the girls 10 and under into separate age divisions. So the 7-8 year old girls would compete against each other and the 9-10 year old girls would compete against each other, like they do with the boys. This week they combined all of the girls 10 and under, and Bailia still tied for 3rd! She was so excited to be the only girl in the 7-8 year old division to place, but SO disappointed that she didn't take first. She is a very competitive little firecracker and she said if only I would have done better on this hole and that one. I said Bailia you shot nine strokes better than last week, and placed playing against the older girls (most-if not all- that placed were ten year old girls)-you should be SO proud of yourself-we sure are! Keep practicing-you are doing wonderful!
Jaden (wannabe Tiger Woods) took first place again this week! He woke up not feeling too well, but he said he could still play. He pulled it together and shot a 27-four strokes better than last week! Keep up all of your hard work Jdog! All of your practice is paying off!
Once again Koda bear came along with Momma and Sis-he gets complimented at every tournament for how well behaved he is! Thanks Matty for being such a good little cheerleader!
