Damn you Tiger!!

I am sorry to report that Tiger Woods broke my heart this weekend and won another major tournament.(I'm sure you are happy he is out of his own "personal hell" K-Delish). Now, Tiger is a great player and already at 29 one of the best of all time. I just love seeing the underdog "journeyman" win tournaments, and nobody deserves a major title more than Chris DeMarco does. If Tiger doesn't get lucky and chip in on 16, DeMarco wins it all when Tiger choked it on the last two holes with bogeys.

In addition to breaking my heart, Tiger also made me wonder about some other things this afternoon. After winning the tournament, he immediately hugged his caddy. This is always OK and perfectly acceptable in golf, especially at such an emotional time. He then proceeded to hug Steve(the caddy) two or three more times. Hmmm. Then he leaves the green, walks through the crowd, and hugs his mom. And then, only AFTER hugging the sweaty caddy (repeatedly) and his mom, does he proceed to hug and kiss his beautiful Sweedish model wife. Does anyone else find this odd? The wife should be kicking his ass for that because that shit wouldn't fly at my house!!

In any case, me and my beautiful wife spent the late morning and early afternoon at the beach today. We both got a little red, but no major burns. Half of Delray Beach was closed for sand replenishment, and it was a little too crowded for our taste. Back to the grind tomorrow.....

Todd, I'm totally with you...I don't like to see one player/team dominate in anything and Tiger has already had his time.

It's great to see the underdogs have their day. Hopefully, Chris can understand he played great and come back and win the next one.

Peace
