I've got to make it to write just my feelings about what has been going on each day!! "Private Diary": I do not know why, but I feel a little uneasy about until when it will last.  Riko Higashio

August 25.2007 Saturday

Yesterday was the first day of the Safeway Classic here in Oregon. For the first time in a while, I started off very relaxed and was doing well, but some bad shots and mistakes ruined my score for the round. Still, I got my putting game back, and felt good about that.

Day 2, today- everything was fine during warm up. But after the 1st hole I suddenly got pain in my lower back. I figured it wasn’t bad, and was stretching while walking and massaging it, waiting for it to pass. It didn’t though, and soon even walking began to be painful, and I wasn’t able to swing anymore. I ended up having to withdraw.

Occasionally whenever my lower back does act up it’s always the right side, and even though it hurts when I walk I’ve never gotten to the point where I can’t swing anymore, much less drop out of a tournament. Needless to say I’m a little surprised. It doesn’t seem to be serious, though, so I’ll get some rest and try to be ready for next week. Crud! What a bummer….
