Chris Wood is looking for a win this week at the Aberdeen Asset Management Paul Lawrie Match Play to secure his place on the European Ryder Cup Team - and to keep the peace at home.
The Englishman is a hot favourite to make the team for the biennial contest at Hazeltine National Golf Club after his win at the BMW PGA Championship, and currently sits fourth on the European Points List and seventh on the World Points List.
This week's tussle at Archerfield is his last scheduled tournament before the end of the points race and his last before he gets married to fiancée Bethany on August 20.
The official honeymoon will come after the conclusion of the Race to Dubai but Wood has revealed he will alter his schedule and tee it up at the Made in Denmark just five days after his wedding if he is still short of Ryder Cup qualification.
"If I have to, I will play Denmark," he said. "The wedding is the Saturday of the Czech Masters, if I have to, I'll play there, but I'd like to tie it all up this week.
Everybody is saying that I'm there but for me, until it's set in stone and there's a line under the qualifying, I'm not - Chris Wood
"I don't want any intensity to drop. So I am really just giving everything, trying to make the team, so I don't want to feel like I let my mind wander - that I'm there."
With Danny Willett and Justin Rose representing Team GB at the Olympics next week, Wood has a free spot in the calendar and he will have a familiar European Tour face with him as he enjoys his stag do.
"Dave Horsey's coming. Joost Luiten was invited but he's playing in the Olympics," he said. "We've got ten of us in total, so yeah, it should be a good crowd.
"My dad is the one I'm most concerned about. He's an unbelievable drinker and he loves a pint of Guinness. It will be really good. A lot of the guys that are coming have come to the Masters, The Open. One of my best men came to the US Open and stayed with me."
Before those festivities can begin, however, Wood has business to take care of, with the number one seed facing a tricky first round match against Brett Rumford on Thursday.
The three-time European Tour winner comes into this week as one of the favourites but he will not be taking Rumford lightly at an event that he enjoyed playing in during its inaugural staging last year.
"I've got quite a tough game against Rummy and the golf course, there's quite a lot of run on the golf course and the greens," he said. "We all know Rummy's got one of the best short games on Tour, so it will feel like he's never out of the hole.
It will be a good one to win tomorrow and then get a little bit of momentum building throughout the week and hopefully go on a good run - Chris Wood
"It's great practice because we play stroke-play every week. So to switch your mindset to one-on-one match play and, like I said, playing Rummy tomorrow, tough game, so I'm going to have to really be on my game to beat him.
"I think Paul's really trying to build a really good event here. It's unique and as soon as it was on the schedule, I wanted to come back and play."
