Golfer Gives Title Away

[enisthemenace]

40 yards off line? Not even Phil's disasterous tee shot on 18 at the 2006 US Open was that bad.

I watched Steve Stricker yank two tee shots into the water, probably 30 yards left, on one hole, only to push his third drive OB to the right...another 30 yards the other direction. That's 60 total yards off target by a professional (pretty sure he's in the top 10). This kid's a soph playing NAIA golf, so don't tell me it isn't possible for this kid to shank one on the 1st playoff hole to win a tournament like this.

I said it earlier, if he REALLY wanted to 'give' away a spot to this guy, why the **** did he say anything about it???

He was trying to save face, while tarnishing his friend's. BS move...to talk about it, that is.

I never said it wasn't possible. Just unlikely.

He should at least have thrown the driver in disgust like Tiger to make it look more believable.

Hell, I'd be thrilled if my shots were only 40 yards off target.
