About 10 years ago the buzz in the sports world was a young chap by the name of Tiger. I'll admit I jumped on the Tiger bandwagon and its been a fun ride! I never really watched golf because it was boring, dull and a bunch of old dudes in funny pants. Once Tiger started playing everything changed.

Needless to say, Tiger has truly dominated the sport of Golf and has made it entertaining to watch, at least when he's atop the leader board. The past 4 tournaments Tiger has played in he has won them all including two majors (British Open and the PGA Championship). Go back to his last 5 tournaments and it reads second, first, first, first, and first! Tiger is first in all of the important rankings (wins, world rank and money). His total points for the world ranking is 22.2 and Phil Mickelson is in a distant second with only 8.9 points. I'm sure this is a ranking he will be holding for a long while again!

This weekend is the Deutsche Bank Championship and Tiger is looking to extend is current winning streak to 5, the longest winning streak in PGA history is 11. Can Tiger possibly win 9 in a row? Well, through his first 8 holes of the first round he's at 3 under par and the leaders are in the club house at 4 under (at least at the time this was written). It's looking like he can wrap this tournament up today if he continues on his current pace.

Right now it seems like the sky is the limit for Tiger and I'm glad to be along for the ride!

Don't feel too bad, Shimmy, my first time I ever played 124 and I lost a dozen and a half balls in a lake with a stupid green in the middle of it. I WAS TICKED OFF!!! Those balls were $3 a pop, PING BALLS, Neon colored, they flew well, but I couldn't hit straight.

I am probably the only golfer that would say, I killed a Canadian Goose one time when I power drive my ball straight ahead on the fairway, this damn goose come flying out of nowhere and intercepted the ball. Clipped his wing and went HONKKKKKKKKKKKk all the way down!!! My friends were bawling and carrying on. I just went up to the bird and paid respect. THIS IS NO JOKE EITHER!!! Happened in 1995 in Michigan. HOW EMBRASSING!!!

Oh I would of loved to been with you that day, I would been carrying on too.

I did one time got a weird shot off, I sliced it, there was a river with a cover bridge, it hit the road bounced on top of the roof of the bridge, rolled across the plain, bounce off the pavement, bounced onto the green, within 4 inches of a Hole in One. I couldn't believe it. What a shot!!! My friends were stratching their heads on that one for awhile. LOL. This happened in Wisconsin.
