I had a couple of good spells on the front nine and the back nine, holed a few putts, so overall my whole game has been very good, so I just have to sort that last hole out and I should be doing quite well.I will just do all the same things. It is more about how I am on the golf course as opposed to trying too hard. It is quite easy to go out there and force the situation, so just let it happen and hope for the best", Shinkwin said after the round.
