Around the greater world of golf: Hunter Haas won the Nationwide's Price Cutter Charity Championship; Ji-Hee Lee won the NEC Karuizawa 72 on the JLPGA; and Lee-Anne Pace won the LET's S4C Wales Ladies Championship of Europe. You can read about the ladies JLPGA event over at Mostly Harmless, although the Constructivist didn't have anything up on the LET finish yet; you can read about that here. And yes, it was a slow week in golf... except for the PGA Championship.
You know, when the day started I thought I might be writing about "Rory's Best Shot." (Kinda catchy, don't you think?) And Rory didn't play badly; in the end, he just burned the hole with too many putts and missed the playoff by one shot.
Then it was going to be "Redneck Rampage." Nothing against Bubba, it's just that's what you think of when you hear the name "Bubba." I would have been ok with his win too, even though I didn't pick him; in case you guys hadn't heard, Bubba is now living in Lexington NC, about 40 minutes or so south of me. This would count as a hometown win to me! (Plus I had this really cool limerick all ready to use; I'll have to save it for another day now.)
Then there was the "Open Revenge" story, where Dustin Johnson rebounds from his U.S. Open loss and takes the PGA. As we all know, it didn't happen. (Note to readers: NEVER, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, GROUND YOUR CLUB ON SANDY GROUND!) But both Dustin and Bubba gain some solace by making the Ryder Cup team.
- Tiger Woods, 9.57
- Phil Mickelson, 9.08
- Lee Westwood, 8.87
- Steve Stricker, 7.37
- Martin Kaymer, 6.70
Just a side note: Germany now has two major winners, Bernhard Langer and Martin Kaymer. Pretty heady company, if you ask me!
I didn't use the "Eye of the Kaymer" motif, but as usual I did give the 25-year-old his very own Limerick Summary:
Remember the name Martin Kaymer:UPDATE: I can't believe I actually forgot to include Danielle Kang's 2&1 victory over Jessica Korda at the 2010 U.S. Women's Open... and it was held right here in my backyard almost, in Charlotte NC. Please forgive me, ladies!
