A couple of months ago, I was at the practice tee with my McGregor Jack Nicklaus golf set when an old guy came up excited and wanted to look at the Persimmon Woods.

He told me he used those clubs when he was in high school in the 70’s and he hadn’t seen those in use for decades.

I guess I’m special.

If they do anything that damages the extra activities - outside of and beyond the PGA tour as well as the mechanisms to enter the tour, that have been working and assisting very well in the entry and advancing of younger players into the tour, from which the likes of numerous top players today arose, they will kill what nurtures the younger generations enthusiasm for the game, and kill the game.

I am not clear on who REALLY thinks the PGA tour is “not working” and just how it is not working.

I wish the players and others would quit playing nice with their words and come right out and say point blank “I think this is wrong about the PGA today ...................”.

Tommy has never given up on improving his game, and it paid off with a big win today after being 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, among the top ten so often.

He said, in regard to his efforts leading to today - “I love my work. I love going out and doing my work and trying to improve every time.” He’s typical of many top golfers.

They’ll kill golf the same way they’re killing the NFL, Noosecar, and college football.

The interviewer asked him, after all the close calls, what he did different today.

I was hoping he’d say “I won you stupid wanker!”

“I will certainly bring experience from my work at the National Football League in similar matters,” Rolapp said.”

And there you have it. Code word “parity”

I’d ;ike to go back to No Facial Hair.

Most golfers are good-looking young men. Why hide it?

Yep, I’m a female. Golf is the only game I watch. Good-looking young men playing the game I love in a beautiful place. What’s not to like?

Constant the road, outdoors, intensity sun-solar protection, epithelial abuse.

Also, if one is not live, and on site gallery, the tele-vision, is filtered vision.

Is PGA selling itself to the Saudis?

I was an avid golfer my entire life until I gave it up around 1999.

It got to be too frustrating and too expensive for me.
