    Pete, like you said: you've been playing well and the Open has been a dream for many years now for you, it doesn't matter if chances are 1 in 10 or 1 in a 1.000.000 any chance of getting your dream is worth it. Doesn't matter if you have your worst round of golf ever if you do enter, we are all cheering for you no matter what. Dont put so much pressure on yourself and go for it! Live the dream! ⛳⛳⛳

    Please Pete, don’t give up on your dream. I look to people like you, Michael Block, JR Smith, the older club pro from the US Open that finally qualified after many years as inspiration. I picked up golf in 2018 at the age of 34 and have since reached scratch at 39 with an average carry of 290. I am smart enough to know that my window for a hall of fame professional career is long passed, but watching you work hard makes me believe that anything is possible. At my age, just getting through the first stage would be one of the greatest moments of my life. People like me need to see you never give up.

      No honestly, I'm 19 and I've been playing since I was 11 and I wanted to sign up for US Open qualifying but I didnt have the money for it. I was shocked to see he wanted to play in Open qualifying which is why I watched the video. His mental is the worst part about his game, if he plays confident like he did on the par 3 then he'll be where he wants to be.

      @@LonelyStranger24 thanks! I know you can do it. It took a lot of work. I practice something pretty much every day. Which is not easy with a full time job. Also, you HAVE to get a good instructor. Someone that can help you identify any swing faults. The thing about swing faults is that they “feel” right. So you need someone knowledgeable that can see them and help you correct it. Once I improved mine (I don’t think I will ever fully eliminate it) I started regularly shooting in the 70’s.

    Was at Dundonald a couple of weeks ago on a trip and got to play the course a couple of times that week. Really enjoyed it, but it's tough if you get in the rough. Well played and way to stick with the round after the triple bogey. Go for the Open qualifying regardless of the outcome. If you're playing well right now (and you are) you'll kick yourself if you skip it, and it's always good to get tournament rounds in.

    We’ve all been there on hole 7 mate, at least you didn’t snap your club over your knee, I’ve personally learnt so much from your channel 😊

    Except for that one hole, where probably it was the wrong club in and some horrendous luck with the lie, you played amazing! It happens, never give up!
