\"Hittin'What a couple of weeks its been since the last Hittin’ the Links<\/em>! Sorry Sand Trap<\/em>pers but everyone needs to take a holiday now and then. On my vacation we watched Rory dominate, crowned a FedEx Cup winner, and watched as the American Ryder Cup team gagged their guts out on the final day of competition.
