Volume One Hundred One
Posted June 11th, 2007 by Alan Olson
Adam Scott should start calling in sick on Sunday.
Woody Austin (funky shirt and all) throws up a 62 in the final round while Adam Scott implodes yet again while holding the Saturday lead. And I wonder if there isn't a little part of Suzann Pettersen thinking about what might have been if only she had held onto her lead at the Kraft Nabisco.
This week we have a recap of the Stanford St. Jude Classic, a couple of great children's charities, and memories of Arnold Palmer's last U.S. Open round.
Hole 1: Austin Wins
Woody Austin wins the Stanford St. Jude Classic in convincing fashion with a final round 62. Even more impressive is he played his last 49 holes without a bogey. [Link]
Hole 2: Pettersen's First
Congratulations to Suzann Pettersen who won her first major at the McDonald's LPGA Championship by withstanding a late charge by Karrie Webb in the final round. [Link]
Hole 3: Eagles for Charity
The Eagles for St. Jude program is working on raising $1.5 million dollars for the St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital. [Link]
Hole 4: Ronald's House
The LPGA has helped raise $45 million for the Ronald McDonald House Charities over the history of the tournament. [Link]
Hole 5: Yeah, Right
I have a better chance of making the PGA Tour then this happening. [Link]
Hole 6: Hip to be Square
Geometry has taken over driver head design. Is your driver square? [Link]
Hole 7: Errant Drive
Walter Driver's tenure at the USGA has been anything but calm. [Link]

Does the LPGA need Michelle Wie or is it the other way around? [Link]
