Mobile, AL - 2nd Stage of Web.com Q-School

Q-School continues tomorrow as 2nd Stage begins.  I'm in Mobile, AL playing the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail at Magnolia Grove.  This is a course I've played many times because my Dad and I spent every spring break here during high school.  I have lots of good memories from playing this course, including my first hole in one on the 14th hole.

I've only played one tournament since 1st Stage of Q-School, which was a Dreamchasers Tour event last week in Arizona.  It was a warm-up for this week and I managed to finish 4th thanks to a consistent score of 69 - everyday!  I definitely had some rust on my game, which was evident with a penalty I called on myself in the first round.  My ball was on the fringe and I marked it and cleaned it.  I thought I was on the green, but I was wrong.  I also whiffed on a shot in the 2nd round as I tried to chip out back to the fairway.  These bizarre things happen when you're rusty and haven't played a lot of tournaments.

Follow along this week here.  No live scoring - just updates at the end of the round.
