I'm afraid there are no replays or second chances in amateur or professional golf, and that's the way it should be.

You get thrown off balance out there. And I never recovered. Well, I haven't recovered yet.

I am a proud product of Irish golf and the Golfing Union of Ireland and am hugely honoured to have come from very rich Irish sporting roots I am also a proud Ulsterman who grew up in Northern Ireland. That is my background and always will be.

My game wasn't where it should have been at all at the start of the year. I got into a couple of bad habits on my swing, and it just took me a little bit of time to get out of them.

I kept telling myself this word, process. Focus on my process, don't care about the result.

Sport was an obvious favourite of mine, and not only golf. I was, and still am, a big rugby fan.

Everything is firing on all cylinders for me.
