Quick thinking Lee!

From Golf.com

by Marika Washchyshyn

Lee Westwood was in the right place at the right time while vacationing in Barbados last week, where he charged into the ocean to save a man from drowning, the Birmingham Mail reports.

Westwood and his family were seated on the beach beside Colin Davies' family when Davies decided to go for a swim. Davies, a British millionaire who suffers from Parkinson's Disease, was out of his wife's earshot when his legs locked up and he started to flounder.

The 41-year-old Westwood jumped into the water and rescued Davies before he went under.

Awesome story indeed. Lucky for him that Lee was paying attention, it's so easy for some of these currents to pull you in quick without anyone noticing. I'm happy it ended well!

The earlier comments about "he knew the risks" is a satire line from Airplane! Intended to be tongue in cheek. Too bad Westwood wasn't there to help Allenby in Hawaii....

No idea, and I saw that movie, and don't call me Shirley. I just didn't understand any part of that post from word 1 to the censored emoji.

Me either. I'll take his word for it but I don't remember that line. All I know is that I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue!

The airplane reference was the only thing I understood. Maybe I'm wrong and it wasn't a reference....scary. Oh, and Leon's getting larger!

Gonna have to watch it again and see what he's talking about.
