The missing golf set of reigning Asian Tour champion Thaworn Wiratchant, has left him under pressure. The Thai golfer is waiting anxiously for the arrival of his golf equipment as he prepares for his second Open Championship challenge, which starts on Thursday. His golf set did not arrive from London and the Thai star was clearly disappointed to miss a practice round at Muirfield.
“It is disappointing because I won’t know how the course is playing yet. I’ll just have to wait for my clubs. If it doesn’t arrive then I’ll have to make a set here,” lamented Thaworn, who is grouped with Lucas Glover of the United States and Oscar Floren of Sweden in the opening two rounds.
Meanwhile, the 46-year-old will work on his putting after receiving a new putter from Callaway Golf. He will also take time to walk around the golf course to get accustomed with the conditions at Muirfield.
“I’ll just walk with Kiradech and Thongchai and have a look at the golf course. I’ve been waiting for my clubs since Monday and it has been disappointing. But I’ll need to remain patient and hopefully it arrives on time,” Thai golfer hoped.
Thaworn knows it will be a challenging task to improve on his credible tied 31st result at Royal Liverpool in 2006 if his golf set, which includes a new set of irons, do not arrive on time.
