The Golf Thread [contains spoilers]

[haigha]

I thought it would be a nice to have a thread for MD, me and any other crazies that chase the little white ball around the field. This way we can have an official thread to discuss our golf games, tour events and other things golf related without needing a separate forum (which isn't justified).

Anybody else in?

What do you think MD?

Here's my first post:

This weekend I shot 77 (+6) from the blues Saturday: 37 on the front and then lost my swing on the back and shot 41. Today, I played my regular Sunday match from golds the with my buddy Don. Started out slow, losing #1 and #3 with bogey and doubled #4. Then played even par through #13 where I won the match 6 and 5. I ended up with 77 again. #15 continues to be my nemesis. My friend Steve, who was playing with us, shot 72 (+1) with a birdie on #18 after a bogey on #17.

It's strange how inconsistent someone like Tiger can be over four days. He shot poorly on Thursday, ten under on Friday and didn't light it up again until the back nine today. Saw Annika lose her ball on #18 today. She has lost her 'A' game of late. It's amazing to see someone as small as Jang hit the ball so well and dominate the field. Wie played well but didn't putt well enough to win. Roberts and Stadler didn't get anything done today and Doyle came out of nowhere from nine shots behind to win the U.S. Senior Open.

I was happy to see Zach Johnson do well. I met him at the Byron Nelson this year. Great guy with a lot of game. It's unusual that his "go to" shots are a cut with the driver and a draw with his irons.
