“How was your golf game, dear?” asked Jack’s wife Tracy.

“Well, I was hitting pretty well, but my eyesight’s gotten so bad I couldn’t see where the ball went.”

“But you’re seventy-five years old, Jack!” admonished his wife, “Why don’t you take my brother Scott along?”

“But he’s eighty-five and doesn’t even play golf anymore,” protested Jack.

“But he’s got perfect eyesight. He could watch your ball,” Tracy pointed out.

The next day Jack teed off with Scott looking on. Jack swung, and the ball disappeared down the middle of the fairway. “Do you see it?” asked Jack.

“Yup,” Scott answered.

“Well, where is it?” yelled Jack, peering off into the distance.

“I forgot.”

Tiger's Back

Tiger Woods is back. Do we care? Well, yes I do! What Tiger did in his private life (not so private really), is his business. What he did was wrong in my opinion, but should not have a bearing on whether the man should or shouldn't be playing golf. Leave all that to his wife, his kids and their lawyers.

Look at the way he plays. Look at his style and finesse. Look at his competiveness. Look at the way he brings the field up closer to his standards. Look at the way the crowds turn up to watch him play. He is a delight to watch and a definite crowd pleaser.

Tiger is in Group 31 on day 1 paired with M.Kuchar (US) and K. Choi (korea), with a hit off time of 1:42 pm (EDT).
