Ohio Golf Blog - Golf Course ReviewsI’ve been following ESPN’s golf coverage. I’m waiting for the story from Jason Sobel about how Woods is going to make a run from nine shots back at the Deutsche Bank Championship. Jason Sobel is probably working on the story right now. In fact, he probably already has an outline he uses for that tired story and he just changes the date, the golf course, and other details.
Hey Jason, stick a fork in Tiger cuz he’s dun!
Tiger Woods was playing the par 4 eleventh hole at the AT&T National on Saturday. Holding a two shot lead, he promptly hooked one off the tee into the rough. He then hit his second into a bunker 50 yards from the green.
The CBS announcers set the stage:
“This is where the average golfer dumps it in the next bunker in front of the green, but Tiger Woods is anything but average.”
Right on cue, Tiger catches it way fat as his hands get ahead of the club and DUMPS it in the next bunker. Brilliant!
Hey Tiger, check out Phil’s DVD. He has a whole section on 50 yard bunker shots.
Remember Tiger, the most important thing when playing out of the bunker is “to continue your hands into the finish.”
The fun doesn’t end there as he blows his next shot from the closer bunker and two putts for double. Ouch!
Ok, this has been making the rounds so I gave in. You don’t want to watch it but you can’t help but stare.
