Furky wins PGA Tour POY
Congratulations to Jim Furyk, winner of the PGA Tour player of the year. Well done. Bravo! Bravo! I predicted Jim would be the man a while back. Isn’t it great that you can make predictions, but only brag when they’re right?
Kuchar wins Vardon and Palmer awards
My friends at Bridgestone Golf must be very excited. Their man Matt Kuchar won the Vardon Trophy (for lowest scoring average on the PGA Tour) and also the Arnold Palmer Trophy (winning the most money at $4.1 million, on the PGA Tour).
Matt Kuchar must be feeling the mojo of having me stand three feet behind him at the Tuesday Masters practice round on #15. That’s why he played so well from that point on. He had HOG mojo. I’ll take the credit.
Speaking of awards, give the Byron Nelson to Freddie Couples
Speaking of awards, another notch in Bridgestone’s cap is credited for Fred Couples, who won the Byron Nelson award. That award is for the lowest scoring average on the Champions Tour. Freddie shattered the old scoring record of 68.58 by averaging an amazing 67.97. It must have been the shoes.
Whenever there are emails floating around about Tiger Woods home they’re often tied to real estate entities of some sort. I got an email from a guy named Jeff Lichtenstein which had this attachment of Tiger Woods house, with the new golf layout etc. Needless to say, this pad doesn’t suck.

If you are considering playing this course, you might want to wait 2-3 weeks. It looks like the greens have just been punched and sanded…

Jeff is with Christies / Great Estates and Illustrated properties and/or jeffrealty.com. At the risk of posting a copyrighted photo without permission I’m mentioning his name, and here’s a link to an analysis of the property and the practice facility by Cary Lichtenstein. I don’t know the relation but I’m sure there is one.

My pal Jay Flemma has a fun post pointing out the fact that much of Facebook is worthless drivel. Personally I don’t want to know that a girl i dated 25 years ago thinks her two year old son’s farts smell like roast beef.
To that end Jay has a top 10 list of entertaining Facebook updates and guess who owns the #1 spot? Yours truly. You’ll have to check it out to see what boneheaded thing I did to warrant the top spot on the list.
Local crooks, one who is a well known local golfer, busted after bragging about their crime on facebook
There’s another post Jay may not aware of which is dumb and sad. A guy I’ve played golf with here, who is the top rated amateur golfer in the state, apparently bragged on his facebook page about ripping off a yogurt shop. Sadly he and his two accomplices are in jail. I’m very bummed to hear this news about someone I know, as well as someone who has so much potential.
Im in South Bend getting ready for my Utes to play Notre Dame tomorrow. Had a blast last night at the local establishments.
Here’s a shot of Notre Dame stadium at about midnight last night.
