Hopefully everyone remembered to call their fathers yesterday. I did. I love my dad and it was a little weird to not have a tee time with him yesterday. This is the first year in a long time I haven’t been able to celebrate Father’s Day with my dad on a golf course. He’s in Texas, I’m in D.C.<\/p>\n

Like many, my dad is the guy who introduced me to the game, and I couldn’t thank him enough. Luckily, he’ll be visiting over the 4th of July, and we’ll play then. I’m looking forward to it. Maybe I’ll let him beat me this for a change?!<\/p>\n

Not! On to the links.
\n
\nHole 1<\/strong>
\nI’m lame, what can I say. I stayed home on a Saturday night and watched this Kevin James and Ray Romano documentary about making the cut at the Pebble Beach Celebrity Pro-Am. It was a night well spent at home. [link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole 2<\/strong>
\nRead all about the U.S. Open from the U.S. Open blog. I think I scooped it earlier this year, but probably not. Still worth reading. [link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole 3<\/strong>
\nYou too can volunteer at the U.S. Open. Just fill this out, but make sure you do it today – it’s due! [link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole 4<\/strong>
\nHow many golf books is there out there? A better question might be how many are worth reading? I like Harvey Penick’s, Bob Rotella’s and Rick Reilly’s, that’s it. Here’s another entrant. I’m sure I’ll read it since I’m a sucker for any book golf related. [link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole 5<\/strong>
\nThis is a great article about Spencer Levin, golf’s young punk. I think he’s one of my new favorite golfers. Read it, you’ll see why. [link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole 6<\/strong>
\nWas I the only one annoyed with Michael Campbell’s outfit yesterday? I think he was wearing pin-striped black jeans! And don’t get me started on the shirt. [link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole 7<\/strong>
\nEveryone say it with me. Sorenslam! Sorenslam! Sorenslam! Sorenslam! Sorenslam! [link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole 8<\/strong>
\nThis is a fun little game. Compare your yearly salary versus what these guys made at the U.S. Open this week and see where you’d fall. Actually, it’s sort of depressing that they make that much having fun! [link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole 9<\/strong>
\nMaybe Sergio’s new found perspective will get him his first major. I think he’ll win one of the two remaining this year. Actually, I think Sergio will win the British and David Toms will win the PGA. [link<\/a>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
