Back on the bag this morning at Birkdale for @wesleybryangolf in the one round last chance shootout for @theopen 👀
8:03 Tee. 12 players. 1 spot… Can we do it??
Wow, I can’t believe what I’ve witnessed today 😳😳
I had the chance to caddie for @wesleybryangolf in Final Open Qualifying, and it reminded me just how brutal and brilliant golf can be!
The conditions threw absolutely everything at us. Sunshine, driving rain, wind… it felt like we experienced every season in a single round. Through it all, Wes played some phenomenal golf. His second round was something special, climbing to -8 overall and right on the number to qualify
Standing on the last, we knew exactly what was at stake. Unfortunately, an agonising bogey meant we missed out on a playoff by the smallest of margins. One shot. That’s golf.
It’s impossible not to feel gutted, because he deserved so much from the way he played today. But at the same time, it was an incredible experience to be a part of, and a reminder of just how fine the margins are at this level.
A huge thank you to everyone who came out to support Wes. The crowds around West Lancs were absolutely unbelievable, and the atmosphere made the occasion even more special ❤️❤️
