Masters Week 2007

[2MinsToPost]

My 2 cents

This weekend, many players went out and played Augusta. The player versus the course. Today, Zach beat the course better then any other player over the course of 4 days and has earned his green jacket. He did not beat Tiger Woods, or any other golfer but rather put up a better number.

Golf, in my eyes, is not about who you are playing against in tourney situations like this (of course other tourneys have different scoring scenarios, see The Ryder Cup, etc). It is about the man versus the course.

Those players that let others scores affect their play will not be successful in my opinion.

Once again, props Zach. You are not a fluke in this mans eyes. Top 40 in the money since you turned pro, 1 tour win already previous this Major, and many more victories quite possibly in the horizon. Lets hope that you and yours enjoy the moment and not get caught up in the "hype" that people will throw your way trying to play the "one and done" game.

My cousin won a major, then came back and has scored some nice checks after his win. He surely is not a "one and done" and for those that think that way I challenge their opinion. Zach surely has earned his place as a Major champion and is due all the credit in the world today.

After all, YOU withstood the pressure and made the shots that counted on Sunday at Augusta.
