The first fixture of the day was Wales v Scotland. For his match, Philip was paired with Gareth Edwards and they faced Scottish rugby player brothers Max and Thom Evans.
It didn't go well. Phil made bogeys on his first three holes, which wasn't helped by a double bogey from Gareth. The final result was a loss for Phil and Gareth and with Wales only winning one of the other two matches they found themselves at the bottom of the leaderboard going into lunch.

For his second round fixture, Philip was paired up with BBC Rugby commentator Jonathan Davies. They faced an Irish team of actor, James Nesbitt and former Westlife start, Brian McFadden.
Philip and Jonathan faired far better in this game (winning 5.5 to 3.5 - as did Wales in general, winning 2 out of the three matches. The end of the day scoreboard looked a lot healthier with Wales in 2nd.
