Volume Ten

Jim Nantz wants to be more than just friends, Amateur shoots 60 to qualify for US Open and who are golf’s next ‘it’ boys.

I’d like to take a moment to throw out the propers to the standard-issued plaid jacket at the Colonial and Paula Creamer’s first LPGA victory. Cheerio. Both standout for different reasons. The jacket looks as though it’s inside-out and Paula’s victory is impressive as she’s only 18.

The links are dedicated to you two this week. It’s my version of a golf clap.

PGA Tour Future ‘It’ Boys
I found myself watching the 3rd round of the Nationwide Tour all day Saturday and decided that the future of golf (at least the way I see it) falls in hands of Camilo Villegas and John E. Morgan.
