I recently (Aug 14-15) won my Club Championship!

I shot 71-73-144 (+2) for a 3 shot win!

(Par 71, 71.4 Rating, 127 Slope, 6330 yards)


What should I accomplish next in my career? I want more wins!

congrats. I have enough trouble playing with people watching me, let alone in a toruney.

The best way to get used to it is to put yourself in those situations.

Yea I do the same. First tee is always the one I'm never able to get off. Even if the course starter is the only guy watching I usually hit a little topped dribbler into the rough in front of the tee box. ugh, it's brutal. I just can't play with strangers watching me.

First, congrats on shooting a round under scratch. Congrats on following it up by playing under your handicap. Now see if you can get the type of handicap you have to explain to most people: the one that begins with a +. This will get you plenty of wins in club tournaments. And hey -- the Canadian Open is only a few (a little more than 10) months away.

I've never been part of a club? Is this only at country clubs or are they also held at public courses?

Congrats, what a great accomplishment.

By the way, what do you usually "win" by winning a club championship? A trophy or plaque of course, but anything else that is usually standard with winning one of these? I would be totally fine with just a trophy and the title of Club Champion, but I was just curious.

There are plenty of golf clubs that aren't even affiliated with a course. A large chain of golf shops around these parts operates one, for instance. Then there are usually golf clubs associated with a public course -- for example, I'm part of the Rancho Park Golf Club, which plays many "home" tournaments at Rancho Park Golf Course, one of the busiest municipal courses in the country.

When I was in university, I'd play squash with this guy on a regular basis. While we played, people would pass by, sometimes stopping to watch. I really hated that, and it affected my game. One day my opponent said, "When people stop to watch, I love it. My goal is to play so well that they keep watching."

He was right. Ever since then, I try to emulate that sentiment. Some days it's easier said than done. Nonetheless, on the range or on the course, if people are watching, I always welcome it and try to raise my game. Congrats to the OP.
