Playing at the home of golf in my first full season as a golfer is an indication of the intense highs I have been through, and the lows? They were there too. 

I think the season went quite differently to how I was expecting it to go. Because of that, it's hard to forget the progress I’ve made, but I didn't quite manage to reach the goal I set at the beginning.
