GPK is that was you and you were leaking oil all day with the driver and i know you can nut the 3 metal , i'm taking the driver out of your hand

btw if the tents aren't there on 18 - with his drive being so bad , on a normal day he would have been in the middled of the fairway on the east course #11 and probably made 4 or at worst 5 from there

I will never say anything about Phil choking. I have played this game at a high enough level to know how difficult it is under pressure. Phil play bravely all week...as did many others. I was happy to score on Olgivy at 18-1 after the first round.

You and I know how important the role of a caddie is. I have caddied in women's major championships, I understand the pressure involved. Jimmy letting Phil hit driver on 18 ranks right up there with Van De Veldes caddy letting him hit driver with a 3 shot lead at Carnoustie. But honestly, when push comes to shove, its is always the players final decision. If Phil isn't intelligent enough to know what to do in that situation, he doesn't deserve to win. He has played in what? 50 majors, he should know what to do.

Never heard a bad word spoken about him. Amazes me that a guy like him likes Greg Norman.

Naw Buddy, it really wasn't a choke, it was his big fat ego or the heat, I dunno. But WTF are you doing hitting driver on that hole, didn't he have enough of a scare the last hole where he had to make a difficult cut shot to make par? Geez, was it Johnny Miller that said "Ben Hogan has offically rolled over in his grave"? It was the old "Tincup Phil" always going for it. Nobody to blame but himself.

i feel so bad for him, he only made 500k.......gets to board his g-5 and go home to his smoking hot wife.

[Gander]

Smoking hot, Sheba? You havent seen her lately, she isnt near what she was before she had those kids. Either that or your taste isnt any better than your handicapping

Just kidding, your handicapping is fine. But really, shes just a dime a dozen bleach blond and she doesnt wait for him at home. Shes got her greedy fingers all over that check well before he boards that G-5.

Cant he do anything about that body? Geeesh. Gets worse at every tournament.

[alysheba4]

well i havent seen her in about 2 years so i guess you are right on both counts........ my capping has been flat out brutal.

[Gander]

So has mine buddy. I am thinking of quitting this before the Saratoga meet even starts. I touted 5 horses yesterday and not one even got 4th. Awful.

I never thought Phil's wife was all that special. Looks like some girl you'd see at a Nascar race, only she hit the jackpot with that slob. Even lets him get away with lets just say "extracurricular activities" .
