Watching today's PGA championship on TV, I'm struck by the number of players carrying their umbrellas and resembling, to a certain extent human mobile mushrooms. Hah!
Quite a game, this golf! Or so many think. Aiken is a golfing community, that's for sure, with the Augusta National just down the road. Tried it once, in New Albany.
I wasn't exactly a great golfer, there, that's for sure. Pretty good at putt-putt, though. C'est ca!
And today, May 28, 2023, watching a PGA program on one of my local free channels, I am recalling one time when a friend took me to Augusta National for a just before official play began view of what was done and who was doing it. Certainly do not remember the who's, but the game hasn't changed one iota. Just like I wrote about somewhere, when I was playing in New Albany at my Uncle's farm. Some still putting their drives exactly where they needed to be. Others, like me, putting them a bit off course and having to correct for their initial mistakes, and finding that time to do? While everyone else was progressing around the course? Ah, golf! Great game, right?
And, oh yes, not my game at all, to do or to watch!
ReplyDeleteAnd, as for those human mushrooms, some (one, for sure) are advertising "PING." Why no "Pong?" (;:-)
