We've all heard about "Luke Donald golf", but yesterday I heard a commentator say that a par Donald made was "a Luke Donald par."
Since "Luke Donald" has become an adjective, a describing word, I would like to establish a clear definition for it. I'll go first.
Luke Donald (adj) - Looks like a winner, but never quite good enough, as in "The fish I ordered was Luke Donald. I should have gone for the steak."

"That's Golf!"

"Looks like a winner, but never quite good enough" I think that is the 'Anna Kournikova' definition...

(It's used for Ace-King in Texas Hold-em poker, I believe!)

      Day 2: Worked on distance wedge swing feels. The feel for me is to keep the upper body down more while straightening the lead leg.

      Day 18 (September 22).  I understand the two club drill better, and was alternating that and hitting a few smooth 6-iron shots;  indoors, off a mat, into the net.  I spent about 20 minutes on this thus far tonight.

      I don't know your family or work situation, but have you considered relocating to Arizona?  I was out there the past month or so and played quite a few times;  it's hot, but not humid.   Or, if your house is sufficient size, consider setting up an indoor practice area, so at least when the weather or your schedule isn't cooperating, you can still hit a few. ... said Shindig, who has routinely disappeared for months, sometimes a year or more, at a time because of getting busy at work and just quietly sobs to himself as he walks past the room where his mat and net are during that time.  Dang, I need to not allow that to happen again.
