I knew it was named after Peter Alliss, but I didn't know the whole story.  He is one of the great sports announcers.  The PC crowd got him removed from US broadcasts for a comment he made about "Don't women's breasts get in the way of their golf swing".  I remember when he said it that I thought he just verbalized what most men probably think, or at least I do.  But I'm a pervert.

I started this thread because I had an "alice" moment.......twice, in a row. 

I am a very aggressive putter. By that I mean I hit my putts with plenty of gusto . When I miss I usually have 2'-3' putt left over. I putt this way because I am a poor break reader on shorter putts.

I had a really good chance of breaking 80, looking at an easy 4 footer that would have given me a 78. This would have been my 4th round in the 70s in my last 6 rounds. A personal good thing for me. 

I left my 78 putt short. No problem as 79 is good. I then proceeded to that putt short.  Both were right on line, but short. I left with an 80 after a tap in. :cry:

I think it was for his comments about lesbianism, but the "breasts" stuff didn't help.
