Okay, here is a place for the Golfers to talk about tournaments, clubs, swing help or thoughts.

Today is the Players Championship, which I think ought to be the 5th Major. Largest pot in the PGA. The daunting 17th, which seems to bring excitement every year. At least we will get to see Sergio blow up yet again.

I am ready to see some water balls!

Well, my golf season officially came to a close today.

Played yesterday afternoon with my wife and 2 friends. Started slow, but really played well on the backside, only to **** up my wrist on 18.

Was in a bunker 50 yards from the green, a couple of feet from the bunker face. Thought I had enough room to clear my follow through, and didn't.

Clubface caught on the face of the bunker, and my follow through came to a complete stop. Right wrist took the shock, thought I'd actually broke it at first.

I had such a good back nine going that I couldn't quit just a few strokes from posting a score, so I chipped on and putted out with one hand.

Anyway, saw the doc today, and while there's no break, he's worried there's damage to a tendon and/or the tendon sheath. 3 weeks in an immobilizer, if no better, then a trip to the orthopedic.

And it's a bitch to type with, too.

Ouch. Sorry to hear that man. Hope you have a speedy recovery.

Man that sucks man.

Played in a tourney last weekend, we shot 13 under. 3rd in Champ. We struggled on short approach shots. Have the Ryder Cup match against Brookfield Country Club this weekend. I need to practice this week, but looks like it is going to be hard to fit in

I'm set in that department...

No fair!!!

Well, had our Ryder Cup yesterday against Brookfield. We won. In the best ball format I finished up 4 and 3. In alternate shot we halved, and Individual I lost 2 and 1. Should have won but got the shanks on a few shots, killed me! But all in all (team wise) we handed them the most lop sided loss since it has started. Lots of fun had by all, can't wait until next year.

God, it's good to know important people...

One of our best friends' biggest client is BMW - and he just hooked me up with 2 passes for Monday's practice round and ProAm, as well as 2 passes for Moving Day. (Saturday)

Cannot.

****ing.

Wait.

**Mr. Plow** · 08-31-2008, 06:55 PM

Played today. First time in over 2 weeks. Shot a 41. 6 Pars (several missed birdies) - 1 double bogey - 2 bogey.

I'm only going to play every other week from now on
