Another fine tournament victory from my student Carrie Li , that’s two victories now in 3 starts on the All American Tour in Texas .
Really pleased with her progress as this was here first time outside of China and she was a little nervous to say the least .
This 2-day tournamnet was NTPGA All American Tour Girls Series (16-18 year old division)held at Texas Star GC (Par 71, Distance 6014, Rating 75.5, Slope 135).
Shooting 74-74 to take the title in very hot conditions was a good effort for this excellent 16 year old girl .
She has changed her mindset now after we chatted last week , I told her she should expect to make 4-5 birdies a round with her ball striking , which is not a mindset she has had before . She made 7 birdies over the two days which is a good change of thinking from my point of view .
New venue next week and another chance to show her skills .
Keep pushing forward , everything is possible.
