We leave Dubai far behind to travel to Thailand and the exotic course at Channarong. Enjoy the scenery and drink plenty of fluids, it's going to be very hot...

He might be better off in jail rather than play this course this week, tough track, any guest winning this week has done very well. Round 1 Got into a par rut from the start and most of them were savers, managed tweeters on 8 and 10 then the snots came, managed a good bird on 18 and i must say was happy to finish even par. Cannot see me winning this week but hey ho, onwards.

ROUND 1Similar round to Les - bogey-free front 9, missed a couple of chances, made a couple of good saves, but stole 3 birdies on the way. Made some errors on the back, which I think was tougher than the front, and paid the price. Happy to finish under par, but disappointed not to score lower after a satisfying first 9 holes. Love this course though, really makes you think...

ROUND 2Not a bad score in these conditions and on a tough course like Channarong, but I just couldn't convert the birdie putts I had on the back nine today, which was very frustrating. An opportunity to post a decent score missed...

ROUND 4Not a lot to play for in this round, except perhaps to try to beat Marek. A very satisfying round though, and if I hadn't pulled my tee-shot on the 4th it may well have been bogey-free. Anyway, I pulled back the 3 dropped shots and bagged 2 more birdies to finish the week on a high. Channarong is a great course but I completely misjudged the conditions for Round 3 - a shame because otherwise we would probably all have finished a lot further up the leaderboard...
