Eagle Dunes Tournament

Hello All!

I think I’m done apologizing for not posting because I really can’t be promising posts when I haven’t been doing it as much as I promised LOL! But anyways… I’m here to write an update about golf and life.

I haven’t been able to crack the code on playing well for three straight rounds (eye roll) so that’s been incredibly frustrating, but at least I have been able to salvage at least one good round during my tournaments— so that’s positive.  This week we played in Sorrento, Florida at a new course, Eagle Dunes. I played a practice round on Sunday and it was SO WINDY. Gusts up to 30 mph and a steady wind at about 15 mph. There was a storm blowing in from the Gulf so we also knew that we had to play fast in order to beat it, and we just barely made it! Luckily the area I was in didn’t get hit too hard with the storms and it was over in just a few hours. The next day brought cooler temperatures and a completely opposite wind so the golf course played totally different than our practice round. I was able to hold it together enough to stay in the 70’s, but it was definitely not my best showing.

Tuesday proved to be one of my best rounds of the year so far with an even par 72, and I ended the tournament shooting a 76. Too many mistakes and bogies so there’s a lot to improve on for the next one. I’m not sure when that will be yet so I’ll update once I do. The season is coming to an end down here and most of the snow birds are headed back north. I’ll be staying until June before headed back home for a couple of months to play in some tournaments.

As for now that’s all I have! Thanks for all the love and support!

Xo, Jen

An Overdue Life Update

Oh. My. Lanta. It has been a loooooooong time since I’ve done a blog….oops! They last update I left you guys with was after we got Alfredo! To say life has been a little busy would be an understatement! We have been so busy and now that my season is under way I’m busier than ever, but it has been so much fun!

Alfredo is now about six months old and he’s a crazy little guy. He’s got so much energy and we have no idea where he gets it half the time, but he’s our little man and we’re loving being his puppy parents. Ollie is now a year old and he’s our little snuggle bug! He loves cuddling right up with us and he’s loving having his brother to play with. They love being outside in the Florida sunshine and they love meeting everyone they see!

As for my golf, it’s been tough. I’ve only played in a handful of events and they haven’t gone as well as I would have liked, but I’m staying positive (as always).  Golf is a funny game. I spend countless hours trying to better my game and when the results don’t show that hard work, it can be so frustrating, but the very next week could be the best week of my life. So you never really know when everything will click, and that's why I haven't put a time limit on myself because how could I? If I'm financially able to keep playing then that's what I'm going to do. I love what I get to do and I'm so blessed that I've been able to play professionally. So I'm going to continue to work hard, stay positive, and hope that my life changing week will come soon.

To those that continue to support me, thank you! You don’t understand how much I appreciate the love and support you have shown me throughout my career. I promise to try to do better with updating my blog and my website :)
