Not unlike his playing days, his go for broke attitude may cost him.

AW Common Chip...the poor
guy has to do something with all that energy he has from working out….And somthin we been meanin to ask ya ….We know the state of Wendy’s game, but how is urn ? jis sayin….STUB
It could be anywhere from mediocre to horrible. But that would only be the first three holes. To tell the truth, I don’t play much these days. I would like too, but I’ve sort of got out of the habit of it. I am however, playing next Tuesday at Laguna National with a very special person. He has to be, to get me at a golf course at 7 am on my day off. I’ll give you a clue, he’s small in stature, has a tendency to wear black and has won more than a handful of majors.

Chip...wow...I'd love to tee it up with him.
there are some in the game who have called him an over achiever..I find that an insult to him. Still love his stories. Post a pic if you can.
I am speechless
well, obviously not. Wow! I shall never address you again in such a familiar manner.
Give me leave, Ma’ am, to be your grovelling admirer.
Very Cool.
Be sure to skip the first three holes…..:) Of course we all want a full report on, not just the round, but the whole day. I hope you have a GREAT TIME! Try not to Quack in his backswing…..lol
The Saints ARE the SUPER BOWL CHAMPS....WHO DAT!
If I Ever Get Divorced or Widowed
I am done with the sport for good unless that redhead from Mad Men knocks on the door with bags in hand.
It’s not that I am against marriage or don’t like it, it’s just that I am too old to be trained again.
I don’t know about that OMP. It’s amazing what can be achieved with a rolled up newspaper and or a pat on the head.
Those training courses are indeed a waste of time
I’m done with giving them too. The man remains a law unto himself to this day.
Stand your ground Charles...
If ya wait long enough, they’ll go away….well, some will anyway…..Wendy ? She’s tougher than liver on Fridays….I think Chip is jist shown off….What she’s really gonna do is !!!!!! where was I ? lol….STUB
Here I am & here I stay
tougher than liver on a Friday – no idea what it means, but OK.
CNP is playing with the “man in black” – OMG! No way would I show up on the first tee.
“Indisposed.”
Are you stating to one and all here
you have shown up on the first tee “indisposed” ? Tough as liver on Friday is an expression of endearment here in the states….The “Black Knight”….one of the best bunker players I ever watched…Love his story from the Old Nelson at Preston Trails…he was practicing bunker shots, and one of the members was watching him….I don’t know how many he holed out, or put close enough to nudge in, but the member said "Pretty lucky son….and Player replyed…Yup, seems the more I practice, the luckier I get….ya gotta love it…And C & P If we don’t get a pic of you two, DON’T COME BACK j/k j/k
lol lol…..STUB
There are quite a few RC players who admit
to being almost “indisposed” on the 1st tee – kinda like you in your lemon pants.
Pls. Chip – tell us all about it after your round.
HOLY LEAKY BANANA BOAT FOLKS
I was practicing my putting when it hit me….WE BEEN PLAYED LIKE BAD VIOLINS BY ONE CHIP & PUTT…..I asks her how her game was, and we get the Ho Hum…fair to bad like Wendys…..than she drops the bomb on us….Well, poor pitifil me, I am forced to go to play with the Black Knight hisself….Now we all know damm well, he ain’t gonna tee it up with jist any ol skull it around duffer….No siree…She is either a big time personality, or plays one hell of a game….FESS UP C & P….Which is it ? STUB

"this ball will fit in that fairway"
OK Court...what

And Wendy Darlin...there was
no mention of RC players…you said that you would not show up on the first tee “indisposed”….And, I wasn’t indisposed on the first tee neither….It was a few holes later, and not on a tee box…So there too already….It’s your turn to serve drinks and horses doofers…..STUB
An a nother thin....take a good
look at the photo by C n’Ps posts….Never mind the kid….look close at the golf bag…If that ain’t a Pro’s bag, I’ll eat dirty sox for a week….STUB
Patience be dammed....Inquiring

Stub
I’ve no idea what he’s doing here next week. Maybe some design work somewhere in Asia? A very good friend of mine is connected to SAP and SAP is one of Mr Player’s sponsors. Breakfast, clinic, golf and then lunch at Laguna CC for a select few. I’m not at all “select”, instead , I just have rather neat friends! Court is of course, correct. The little fella was very little and cute as hell, so I couldn’t resist the pic opportunity. Feel better? Bit anticlimactic really……
Back to Greggy...
….you have to give the guy a break. He went insane and dumped his great wife for (gag) Chris Evert…..Lloyd…Mills. No telling how big her bank account grew with a pile or two of Norman cash. He finally came to his senses and kicked EverlLloydMillsNorman to the curb. Lets hope this one is a little more…human ?
"this ball will fit in that fairway"
Anyone got a pitcher a her ?
What’s Two doin…if he writes this stuff, he’s gotta finish it out…Hey Two ! you out there somewheres ? Yoo Hoo ! Two? STUB
lol – Norman left Faldo in the dust in the bank account arena, too.
"this ball will fit in that fairway"
Majors also
Faldo winning 6 made him super rich anyway. And he has built on that. Norman freely admits he was unfulfilled as a golfer. And it’s too late to get it back. A very rich man indeed, but many regrets on the course, that will haunt him for the rest of his life.
If I had my druthers, I
would take the HONEYS WITH THE MONEY…but of course, I don’t so I guess I will be like every other poor slob….Show me the money honey…..sorry bout that…..STUB
It’s a tough question to answer – Norman has worked his buns off to become as wealthy as he is….and you can’t take away Faldo’s hardware.
But Faldo’s success has led him where ? Sitting next to Kelly Tilghman two days out of every tournament he broadcasts. What is the poor guy being punished for ? :-D
"this ball will fit in that fairway"
Lol...
I hear you there..but ultimately, Faldo’s hardware has him at joint 12th in the all time major list over 150 years…Norman gets no mention with just 2. In other words, history is what the greats play for in the end.
true enough – but Norman had more fairways lined with women’s underwear than Faldo !
"this ball will fit in that fairway"
Interesting that Norman gets more mentions
with 331 wks. at no. 1 with 2 majors, whereas Nick Price with 3 majors gets less kudos possibly because of 44 wks. at no.1?
Price was never the pretty boy poster boy for professional golf. He was quiet, and had a swing nobody really wanted to emulate.
Norman was a physical specimin. Women lusted after him. Men wanted to look like him and play like him. He was a swashbuckling figure.
And yes – 331 weeks at #1 is pretty darn impressive.
"this ball will fit in that fairway"
Agreed.
Everyone knows Greg was a fantastic player. He should have won 10 majors with his talent. The best driver of a golf ball ever. In majors, however, going for broke on every shot will cost you more that it gains. Greg, like Arnold before him, found that out the hard way, but that playing style won them many fans.
I guess I prefer the quiet type then
Norman’s dead-fish eyes give me the creeps! The only time I really felt for him was during that Faldo drubbing. Oh, actually I wished him well during The Open when he & Chrissie seemed so happy.
Anyone had to feel for Greg that day in '96
It was just about the final nail in his golfing coffin. Faldo too, never got over it either. Both men will forever be tied in golfing history for it..those 4 rounds Norman played that week just about summed up his whole career..brilliant, but couldn’t hold back when he had to.
Third time lucky?
Never know the truth behind these break-ups, but in this case can’t help feeling the children of previous marriages didn’t exactly hit it off with their respective step-parents.
Wendy...I was under
the impression, and corrct me if I’m wrong, that all the children involved were of the “young adult ages” If that’s true, very little parenting needed from the new spouse….right?…STUB
You're right about the ages, STUB
but they can sure as hell make life hell especially if they blame the step-parent for the breakdown of their parents’ marriage.
I prefer to think of it this way – Norman lost his mind when he took up with Evert-Lloyd-Mills and destroyed his marriage to a great lady. Then, he slowly came back to his senses and kicked her to the curb and now he’s trying to find a good woman again. (lol)
"this ball will fit in that fairway"
A great lady ?
How would we know ? A lady to be sure, but they broke up because they were no longer in love with each other. The fact that you don’t like Evert has nowt to do with it :)
Whoa...now yur
gittin PHIL – O – SOF – A – CUL on us…none of that please….this is a sports blog…..STUB
