More Bits and Pieces
Photo: Eric looking at the Callaway Diablo driver that I bought up at Dicks in Bloomington a week ago. I'm happy with it and have not decided whether or not to put an extension in the shaft. It's very light - my old Snake Eye driver is heavy by comparison.
-Solheim Cup: The US ladies are up 4.5 to 3.5 after day one. Michelle Wie and Morgan Pressel went up against a couple of experienced dames from Europe (Catriona Matthew and Maria Hjorth) in the morning four-ball, got behind by two early, rallied to go up one and then stumbled on the final hole to finish with a tie and a half a point. Michelle pairs up with Christina Kim in their match this morning against Helen Alfredsson and Tania Elosegui. Christina would be a hoot to play a round with, don't you think?
-Lots of golfers out on a Friday evening which was ended with the quick movement of stormy weather into the area - lots of dark and fast moving clouds but not so much rain. Dindn't look that way though and everybody got off the couse in a hurry.
-Scramble today in about an hour. Come on out and get in on the fun.
