So much for home advantage
As much fun as it was being back home in Scotland for a few weeks, it was also an extremely frustrating time.
As I have mentioned in the past, . To come over and play poorly over those tournaments, especially at The Open, was tough and something that still frustrates me.
I had a respectable finish at Loch Lomond, , but I felt that I was fighting my game the whole week and never really hit the ball well enough in any round to get myself into contention.
Luckily for me, my short game was working very well on Thursday and Friday, otherwise I would have been watching the weekend action on the TV.

I was born and bred in Glasgow, but now I live in Scottsdale, Arizona, and make my living on the US PGA Tour.
I won my maiden Tour event in October 2009 - the first Scot to do so on US soil since Sandy Lyle won the Masters in 1988.
I want to win again and play in this year's Ryder Cup, so I'll be letting you know how I'm going about it, as well as providing you a behind the scenes look at the PGA Tour.
