Annika Invitational Jan 15^th thru 18^th at World Golf Village St Augustine, Florida.  Discovered some weaknesses to address when playing over 6400 yards competing against the best for under 18 golfers. Finished 47th out of 72 golfers that stayed in tournament (80 were initially in), but some WDs after 30 MPH winds on day 1. Round 3 really had improvements after working those weaknesses. Next tournament, look forward to bringing those as strengths!
