South Georgia Classic (Valdosta, GA)

I'm a week late updating the blog for the South Georgia Classic. The Internet in my motel was absolutely awful (along with the motel itself) and I couldn't get online long enough to blog. I'm happy to say my accommodations are just a little bit better this week.

Kevin finished the week one under par and tied for 34th place. The golf course was the longest on Tour at over 7800 yards. With the length, big fairways and big greens; it definitely wasn't built for his style of game. But with that said, Kevin birdied the last hole on Friday to make the cut on the number and then had a solid weekend. When we finished Sunday, we were both pretty pleased with the finish.

Beginning this year, Kevin started working with a new teacher, Scott Hamilton. Scott has students on both the PGA and Web.Com Tours. He was in New Orleans earlier in the week on the PGA Tour working with some players and came to Valdosta on Thursday. They worked hard after each round and Kevin's game is looking good.

After Sunday's round, we left Valdosta and headed three and half hours north to Athens, GA. He was looking forward to getting back into UGA Bulldog territory!!
