THAT'S GOOD ...I can be confused with Tiger Woods on the golf course when ... when I hit the fairway.
The shot I dread most on the golf course is ... the fried egg sand shot.
My strangest moment on the golf course was ... participating in a "anything goes" golf event at the Saratoga Country Club. It was a test of ones concentration levels during a round of golf. There are some pretty strange things said, thrown, hurled, belched, passed and sprayed on you during your swing.
The strangest thing that has happened to me, or I have seen on a Golfest trip was ... witnessing a hole-in one at the Kiawah Island Ocean Course. (Rickey actually photographed the swing by Mark Suzda that went into the hole).
My (best) shining moment on the golf course was ... a phenomenal up and down from the left side, green side hill, coming out of the rough on #18 at the Rivera Country Club during the Pro-Am Nissan Open in 2002. It was fun to tip the hat at the gallery for their ovation.
If I could add or change anything about a round of golf, I would ... have had my foot healed for the 2002 Nissan Open Pro-Am.
My fantasy foursome would include ... Christy Kerr, Michelle Wie and Tiger Woods. Nah, replace Tiger with Leanne Rymes.
