Final Thoughts on the PGA Championship

On the 10th hole, Sergio got trashed by the announcers for hitting a wayward tee shot. When Mike Weir got there and missed his tee shot, the announcers said that no one has had a good tee shot from there. They make excuses for Mike Weir.

It seems like Tiger's driver is a lot like Sergio's putting. But no one dares to criticize Tiger's driving. He brings in advertising dollars. So what if a few people get hit.

They threw up a statistic graphic today that said that Tiger wins most of his tournaments on par 72 courses. So, instead of making the courses longer to Tiger proof them - they should just reduce all of the courses to par 70. And reduce the width of the fairways and grow longer, tougher rough.

Finally, at the British Open, the announcers made a point to say that Sergio's final round stats show that he's usually 2 over par in final rounds. Well, today he was 2 UNDER par. So, for everyone who says he's let another one get away or that he hasn't improved or isn't working on his game, I say HAH!

Hi-

I just came across your blog, and I wanted to compliment you on it. I have been searching for a pro-Sergio site for some time, and finally found it. Have fun at the tournament.
