I played as well on the front nine as I've played in many, many years. I should have gotten more than 3 under par out of it. Then I got frustrated on the second nine and shot 1 over. This was one of those rounds that could have been really, really low, but I couldn't make any putts.

Coming down the back nine, I just putted poorly. I hit a few loose shots on the back nine. It actually came down to just some very poor putting once again. The putting has been the nemesis over the last three or four months. It's getting to be a little frustrating, I suppose.
