Henrik Stenson Gives New Meaning to a Skins Game

You need some balls to pull this off
You need some balls to pull this off

Yesterday, Henrik Stenson gave new meaning to the phrase ‘skins game’. On the third hole at the WGC-CA Championship, Stenson stripped down to just his underwear and golf glove to play a shot from a watery lie after his wayward drive.

I would definitely recommend to Henrik’s personal trainer that a more cardio-intensive workout is required.  Full credit for having the balls guts to pull this off, though.  Who knows?  It may start a new craze of strip golf, in which losing a hole means losing an item of clothing.  Perhaps not. 

I can only hope see Stenson’s ludicrous actions catching on in the women’s game. Here’s to praying that Natalie Gulbis pulls her next tee shot into a wet lie with some sexy lingerie on!

Let's hope Laura Davies would see sense and take a drop.

great line from Faldo...

…second round, they showed Stenson setting up for an approach shot…next to the water, of course – and Faldo says, “oh ! I didn’t recognize him with his clothes on !” :-) (ok – a little obvious – but still funny)

faldo

Faldo a great pundit? Please he’s an ovestuffed wind bag. Every course he played gets an oratory of his great shots there-Gee Nick how many years ago was that? And how is it pertinent now? They should pay Arnie 10X what they pay Nick.
