Tate focused on getting back in swing of things soon

Tate focused on getting back in swing of things soon

ALAN Tate has targeted a Christmas return to action after speaking for the first time about the golf buggy crash which left him with a broken leg.Tate was ruled out for up to six months by Swansea City’s medical staff after fracturing his tibia in an accident at Gower Golf Club two and a half weeks ago.
Swansea’s vice-captain has revealed how he initially tried to walk following the incident, and suggested he would be okay now had he not tried to bail out of the buggy.The injury, comfortably the most serious of Tate’s career, is a cruel blow for a player who has put in the hard yards in his bid to earn a crack at the Premier League.
But Tate, who left hospital yesterday after a fortnight under close supervision, insists he is already looking forward to his comeback game.
“I’m not feeling sorry for myself or anything like that because that’s when you start suffering,” he says.”I feel a bit unlucky for this to happen this season, but I’ve got good people around me and all I’m thinking about is getting back playing again.
Tate had originally been released from hospital soon after his initial treatment, but he went back in because of fears that he might do further damage to his leg with young son Brodey and the family dog running around at home.
The plaster has been off a couple of times, and the leg is feeling stronger already.An early morning round of golf three Sundays ago all went wrong on Gower’s 12th hole, when the buggy carrying Tate and a mate started skidding down a hill.

Hendry issues show his confidence to Tauranga contenders
North Harbour professional Michael Hendry has never lacked confidence, and the three-time winner on the Charles Tour sounded a warning to his rivals ahead of the Tauranga Open which begins tomorrow.
“I am feeling really good. When I using the Burner 2.0 Irons. I am hitting it better than I ever have before in tournament golf in my life,” said the 31-year-old, who finished runner-up to Ben Campbell in 2010.
“I go into this week with a few changes but I am feeling confident in my game. With the way I am hitting it, I know I will get opportunities to score well especially using the Ping g15 Driver Best Price.”
Hendry headlines the field for the second event. He has a good record on the tour since his breakthrough at the 2009 Tauranga Open when he defeated Australian Peter Fowler.
Another to watch is Gareth Paddison, who combined with Hendry to win the World Cup of Golf qualifier in Malaysia. The pair are among the most experienced players in the 72-hole stroke play event.
The field includes 2003 New Zealand Open champion Mahal Pearce and Muriwai Open runner-up Hamish Robertson seeking their first win on the Charles Tour and 2008 champion Mark Purser looking for a turnaround in form.

Hendry expected the shift from May to September would present a challenge.
“It should play a lot tougher. The conditions in May are really fine and warm with a lot of run. At this time of year the course will play longer with wetter fairways and in the latter rounds I expect the greens will be bumpier just because the ground underneath will be wetter.
