Lucas Gimenez can't imagine how he'll forget the past weekend in Orlando, Florida.
"I mean, I've gotta put it at No. 1 just because I broke my record," he said when asked how his nine-shot victory at the Golfweek International Junior Invitational stacks up on his list of career victories.
Midway through his practice round at Celebration, a course he hadn't seen before this tournament, it dawned on Gimenez that this could be a good week. He saw shades of Marsh Landing Country Club in Ponte Vedra, Florida, which is near his Jacksonville home."I was kind of telling myself, oh this is just like the course I played in Jacksonville before," he said."I've always played well at that course so I knew it was going to fit me well in the practice round.
"That was a big confidence booster because that led me to go 5 under in the last four holes," he said of his front-nine 30. On a weekend like the one Gimenez produced, a player has to be accurate off the tee. He was. What happens around the greens matters too, of course, and Gimenez attributes his performance there to work he's been doing with short-game coach Mike Shannon. He recently had his first lesson with Shannon.
