The shot I dread most on the golf course is ... that stupid little 90-yard par-3 that is completely surrounded by water.
My strangest moment on the golf course was ... I'll never tell.
The strangest thing that I have seen on a Golfest trip was ... Waking up in my hotel room in Auburn Hills and seeing four piles of puke ... perfectly laid out in a circle, as if someone was laying on the their side puking and bicylce kicking around in a circle. That probably caused one hell of a rug burn on someone's nose (Name not mentioned, to protect the guilty.)
My (best) shining moment on the golf course was when ... I rolled up to a tournament "putt-off" in my finest sandals (and socks I might add.) While the peanut gallery was heckling me about it., one of the fine gentlemen on the other team FIVE-PUTTED and I walked out with a crisp $50 bill in my pocket. I was jumping around like a crazy German tourist cause I had just hit the jackpot.
If I could add or change anything about a round of golf, ... I still say FREE beer!
My fantasy foursome would include ... Anthony Kim, Natalie Gulbis, Michelle Wie and me.
