Nikko Locastro called me a few days ago and said he was in Austin to play a A tier event in Roundrock this coming weekend. I invited him and Carmen, his girlfriend, to stay at my house until the weekend and they headed south to San Antonio.
Yesterday, I took him out to my home course, McClain Park, and we played a round with a couple of friends of mine. Not knowing the course, Nikko shot -5 which I thought was great for a first time. Well, he was not pleased, to say the least. On the 17th tee box, I happened to mention that the course record was -8.
When we went out today, I asked him where he wanted to play as there are 5 more courses in the area. He said, without hesitation, that he wanted to bust that course record at McClain and off we went.
Another friend of mine joined us and I won't bore you with the details but he shot............... -13 under!!!!!
What an exhibition! At the end of the round, my friend dropped his bag and said "That's it. I quit after watching that! There is no hope for me" LOL
All I could say was "WOW!"
