I missed the cut but I thought I played pretty good, just didn't finish the way I wanted to yesterday. But this experience is invaluable. Just can't wait to get back every year after this and I'll do my best and I know I'll have to play my best to get here every year, but it has been a fantastic experience. The course has been in superb condition, the crowds have been great and it's just a pleasure to play in front of them."</p>.<p class="bodytext">Despite missing the cut, Shubhankar plans to stay on for next two days, before heading to his next event in Texas. "I am going to stay on enjoy the week. I have learnt a lot and I will surely be back."</p>.<p class="bodytext">Starting the day 5-over and needing a sub-par or at least a par round, as it turned out, to ensure weekend action, Shubhankar never found the momentum he needed to bring in a low score. "On this course, you need a few birdies to start with. I had the chance on the first day and again on second, but did not quite hole them. But, I was happy with my driving," said Shubhankar.</p>
