Thoughts going into the NB Junior :
I feel very good going into the NB Junior Championship.I am striking the ball well with my driver and my irons.The only thing that needs improvement is my short game. It is not yet up to par.I am working very hard on my putting to get my confidence back up,and hopefully make more putts.During NB Junior,it will be essential to hit good wedge shots,make some putts and play smart golf to have a chance to win the championship.

Thoughts going into NB Junior :
Well, it is my last year as a junior and the Provincial Junior is being held at my home course, Country Meadows. Obviously this should play as an advantage for me over those who are less familiar with the difficulties the Meadows has to offer. I have been working on things and I am feeling confident heading into the tournament. However there are plenty of great players and I know they have all been working hard on their games too and will be well prepared. It is going to be a lot of fun no matter what happens. I wish everyone the best of luck.
