One of my finest drives hit a cow paddy. Lake Tahoe course and the cows got
through the fence during the night. I hit a ball in to a bad lie, and
absolutely hit out the ball perfectly. Is out about 200 years, on a slight
uphill rise, following the hill up. About 6" above the ground most of the
way. Hits an 8" high cow flop near the top of the hill. Ball does a 90
degree straight up. Up about 50'. Damn, would have been a 300 yard drive.
In the correct direction.

Did you see Mickleson today? He had a 10' putt and right as he was
hitting it a leaf landed right in the path of the ball.
Classic "rub of the green".

That putt looked great too. That scene will probably be shown several times at
every Masters in the future.

Since they were a hundred yards from the nearest tree someone
commented that a fan may have thrown the leaf. The commentator said
that would have been the best shot all day.
It was strange. I watched him line up the put then when they pulled
back and I saw the ball hop I asked myself WTF? It wasn't until the
replay that they actually saw the leaf and they had a good shot of it
flying in on another camera angle. It makes you wonder how many
cameras do they bring to a match like this. They seem to have several
on every hole,
This was strange for me. I don't think I have ever watched a whole
golf match on TV before and stranger was it was my wife who wanted to
watch it. I guess it was because she runs a country club and this was
the only thing they were talking about for a month. I bet she was
hanging around the club house today swapping observations with the pro
and the other folks who hang out there. ;-)

My observation.
What do Amy Mickleson and Elin Woods have in common
1. they are both beautiful
2. they are both blonde
3. they both wanted Tiger to get his ass handed to him by Phil

LOL! Funny, my wife wanted to watch the whole thing also. I had to waste an hour
driving down to Quantico, and she watched even while I was gone.

Who am I to complain?
