Smoother than a pint of John Smith’s, Rory is the most fluent swinger of the golf club since Seve won again in Hong Kong. His swing is full of grace, effortless power, great balance and he can down a pint of Guinness in one without blinking; he was mentored by Open Champion Darren Clarke, so no great surprise there then!
Lee Westwood played, by his own admission, his best ever round of golf shooting a ridiculous 62 at Sun City in the third round and blowing the rest of the world class field away.
His caddy said it was the best driving exhibition he had ever seen, just imagine how many majors Lee could win if he had Luke Donald’s short game?
The great Tiger Woods won again after a two-year drought. Love or hate Woods, he is good for the game of golf, even better when he is winning. Birdieing the last two holes to clinch victory shows he has still got the will and the mental strength to win. The pressure on any win is huge, but after two years in the doldrums the mental strength and belief required is enormous.
Asked how he felt after his win he replied “awesome” and that’s the word most of us would have used to describe his golf in the past, and with any luck, will use it regularly in the years to come.
Anyway back to my lovely dream Rory, Lee, Tiger may I join you?
