-Down in sunny Arizona, Tiger is gone after one round of 19 holes. Jeesh. Also gone: Jim Furyk, Ian Poulter, Retief Goosen, Dustin Johnson and Steve Stricker. The brackets.
-And over in Singapore, Michelle Wie goes +1 on each of her last two holes to go +1 for her first 18 holes. Sits five back of the leader Chie Arinura.
-Some of the story of Dave Duerson, former Notre Dame and Chicago Bear football star who took his own life last week at age 50. Wants his brain donated for research.
-The details on the Lion win at Jasper from Lagote74:
-Looking for all that rain to miss us today. Don't know if it will happen but what the heck. Going to the course to walk - did get over there late yesterday afternoon for exercise and to play several holes. Tracy Rayhill and Tony Trambaugh also took advantage of the slightly warmer and dry conditions.

-The details on the Lion win at Jasper from Lagote74:
Now back to the game! Lions got down 7-0, closed it to 16-13 after 1. Fell behing 21-13, then mounted a drive to lead at half 32-27, blew it out to 42-31, before Wildcats rally to within 48-45, heading into 4th quarter. Jasper regained the lead with about 6 minutes left. It was 60-56, with about 50 sec. left, Conner Wittmer is fouled, he drains both free throws. Jasper in bounds leading 60-58, foul Wildcat player, adam sanders, he knocks down two, Jasper now leads 62-58. We quickly bring the ball up, Bryant hits first trey 62-61, Mike calls immediate time out. Down to about 15 sec. left. We foul a guy who hadn't been to line best I remember, he misses first hits second. 63-61. We come down court work the ball around Ackerman open top of the key, drains the trey with 4.4 sec. left after Jasper time out, we deploy a press and they never get a decent shot off buzzer sounds.What a sweet last minute of the ball game for Bryant Ackerman and the Lions!
Lions win! First victory by Loogootee at Jasper since 1972, 64-62. Before that it was 1966, championship game of Holiday tourney, Lions win 71-54, i think. Before that someone said 1920's.
Great way to prepare for sectional action. Close games on the road against a quality opponent.
