The boy has game, no bones about it. He's young, green and fresh to the PGA tour competitive schedule. I don't think he'll be in danger of losing his card, even if he does play a limited schedule. The guy got his card off of playing sponsor exemptions last year for pete's sake.
All in all, I hope he is well, and doing ok.
Just a few little things for 2006:
1.) Pay off the car
2.) Shoot in the 90's
3.) No more three putts
4.) Find out who killed Jimmy Hoffa
5.) Lose 20 pounds
In no particular order, I'd go with:
1.) Merion
2.) Cape Kidnappers (New Zealand)
3.) Cypress Point
4.) St. Andrews
5.) Bandon Dunes
6.) Bethpage Black
7.) Kapalua (Plantation Course)
8.) Augusta
9.) Carnoustie Golf Links
10.) Valderrama
(Of course, this list is always subject to change)
Long Live The Doak!
What I know about Morgan Pressel is that she is one competitive young woman. She only has one thing on her mind all the time, and that's winning. The true test is if she can make that happen on the professional level. And you know what? If she does win,she'll cry again.
I do believe that if you lose, you shouldn't show how distgusted you are with yourself in front of the competition. It carries with it a certain stigma that can result to further embarrasement down the road.
Speaking of showing disapointment, did anyone see Tom Lehman take his anger out on his bag yesterday at the Accenture?
That's such an excellent albeit difficult question to answer.
Here are mine in no special order:
1.) Ernie Els
2.) Colin Montgomerie
3.) Chris DiMarco
4.) Jim Furyk
Players of Years gone by: (No particular order)
1.) Ben Hogan
2.) Sam Snead
3.) Jimmy Demaret
4.) Harry Vardon
What a space cadet that chick is. I think I would have started cracking up to her face if I was running that camera or giving her the interview.
I can see her becoming a stalker of some type.
That chick is out there.
I'm in the market for a new driver and a couple of fairway woods. I hear good things about Adams Golf in regards to price, value and performance. Anybody agree or disagree?
I couldn't believe how much they're giving away. Compared to how much some of these girls made on the Futures tour last year, it's going to be a big pay day.
No doubt, Nikki will be leaving soon. I thought it was pretty funny how every other competitor was ragging on her.
I thought that some of the prizes and competitions seemed a little more thought out and spiced up this season.
And what was up with all the chip-ins? It made for some good television I thought.
I've been using a PING Anser for two years, and I just bought a PING My Day this past September. Both used, but in ok condition. I tried a Scotty Cameron Coronado out the other day, SWEEEET! But just a little too rich for my blood right now.
I think the Daly Planet is great. For some sick reason, I enjoy watching professional golfers when they're not on the course and their being totally candid with one another.
Vijay called J.D. out this past week on the show, saying that J.D. lost his ambition and he'll never be a true champion because he doesn't like to play practice rounds.
They're both friends, and that was demonstrated, but I like to see that honesty. Sometimes you don't get that from players when they have a CBS or NBC microphone in front of them.
