All the rain finally caught up with the course. LTG and I played our Old Pal match on Sunday with the course as wet as it has been all Spring (yes technically it is still Spring). I guess we should have expected it after some of the storms that have come through lately. But I digress. We won't talk about the results. Suffice it to say we always catch our opponents on their best day. It was close for quite a while, but we couldn't overcome the strokes bunched together on the backside. Plus my putter took lessons from Phil's on our last hole to extend the match.
Speaking of Phil, wasn't the US Open great theater!? For all his heroic play Phil just couldn't pull it off in the end. I don't know anyone who wasn't rooting for him. You just had to love Merion. For a course that was supposed to be a pushover no one broke par. Made some of the best pros in the world look pretty bad. I know they sure screwed up my pool picks and took me out after two rounds.
Looks like some good weather this week. Hope to see you at the training table.
