Played at the Chi Linh Star Golf &#38; Country Club, about 50 miles outside the capital of Hanoi, Pavin hopes to best about 140 others to win the tournament because, he says, &#8220;my wife told me to.&#8221; Pavin&#8217;s (second) wife and caddie is Vietnamese.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s always fun for me to go to a new place and many of you know that my wife, Lisa, is a Vietnamese,&#8221; Pavin told some folks with notepads and pencils. &#8220;It&#8217;s a great opportunity for us to come here and play in this tournament and after this, we&#8217;ll tour the country for 10 days.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Pavin&#8217;s wife will caddie for him in this tournament if her luggage arrives. It failed to ask for directions and was lost along the way. Said Pavin, &#8220;She doesn&#8217;t help too much on advice, but it&#8217;s nice to have her around to just talk.&#8221; He later added &#8220;The sex at the end of the day ain&#8217;t so bad either.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Vietnamese organizers hope that this event &#8211; one in which Corey Pavin is the biggest name &#8211; will spur interest in golf. Said Pavin &#8220;I&#8217;m just hoping that my wife will leave me alone about &#8216;touring her homeland&#8217; for another few years.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Of course, much of this report has been made up in an attempt to have some fun with an otherwise boring story.
