I'll Miss Him

Ollie is past his prime, but he is a wonderful person by all accounts and a ferocious competitor. I truly enjoy watching him go about his business in a tournament.

You and me both. I hope he can come back and play next year. Would love to see him make a decent run leading into his Ryder Cup captaincy.

He won the last (and only) time I was there in ‘99 (for Wednesday practice round), sorry he won’t be there this year when I make my much anticipated return… LOL Great swing, Ollie still has the same simple move that one won him two green jackets.
