My Grouping Thoughts: Henley, Westwood, English Could Be THE Group To Watch

There were a few interesting groups to emerge from the 2014 US Masters draw. 
Jordan Spieth, Patrick Reed, and Rory McIlroy:  Will being paired with two rookies help or hinder McIlroy?  And how will he gel with the two super confident newcomers? Fingers crossed they all get along.
Phil Mickelson, Ernie Els, and Justin Rose:  Really the perfect draw for all here. Professional, experienced, respectful, gentlemen of the game.


Jason Day, Dustin Johnson, and Henrik Stenson:  This one is interesting to me in that these three men are “go for it” golfers.  Day’s gung-ho attitude has served him well recently at Augusta while Johnson’s wrecklessness has cost him on more than one occasion in the Majors. Throw Henrik into the mix and ratchet that intensity level into the danger zone.
 
Bubba Watson, Luke Donald, and Sergio Garcia: The driver, the ball striker and the short game expert.  This threeball certainly is a clash of styles, but will favour Sergio who isn’t likely this time around to be getting angry with his partners.  He gets on great with both Luke and Bubba.  It’s a happy pairing, and that could spur them on to good golf.
Adam Scott, Jason Dufner, and Matthew Fitzpatrick: Sure to be huge media scrutiny on Scott and young Matt Fitzpatrick.  Jason Dufner can go under the radar here.
Charl Schwartzel, Jim Furyk, and Thorbjorn Olesen:  This is a fantastic draw for Thor who played so well last year yet finds himself cut adrift at 125/1 in the betting.  Schwartzel the former champion and Furyk the course manager give the young Dane the ideal partners in the opening rounds.
Russell Henley, Harris English, and Lee Westwood:  Now I think there has been word in the ear somewhere that got home boy Harris English paired with Lee Westwood in the final group on Thursday.  Lee may not have played his best yet this season, but he is as experienced as any player in this field with three top 10’s in his last four appearances (the other was 11th!).  Both men also have similar games too as fans of the St Jude Classic will know very well. Chuck in recent winner Russell Henley and you have THE group I for one will certainly be watching.

Two Naked Pics Of Holly Sonders. The Big News To Emerge From The 2013 PGA Show

Image
The media centre at the 2013 PGA Show was buzzing yesterday.  Not because of anything that happened at the show.  God forbid! When I rocked in, several men (and one woman) were gathered around an iphone ogling and sharing  two pics of who they claimed were Holly Sonders naked. Now I have to hold my hands up and say, I had to google her to find out she’s from The Golf Channel. I don’t watch the Golf Channel because I don’t have an erectile dysfunction problem or need to rent a car from National.  I’m told adverts for both are all that’s on that channel. How they knew for certain it was her, I dont know.  Unless the cheeks of her ass were on her passport photo and they recognized them from there, but I doubt it. The First Pic The first pic is taken from behind. No pun intended.  The media guys say it was taken by her fiancee (?) and shows Holly in a white thong which has disappeared a dangerously long ways into the bummage.  I’m talking t...

Sarah Stirk Nipple Gate: Navy Top Leaves Viewers Disappointed

Image
London: Sky Sports management this morning issued a statement  apologizing to subscribers after Sarah Stirk wore a navy dress live on air.  It is believed up to 60,000 horny golfers were left limp after they tuned in to final round coverage of the Valero Texas Open in the hope of getting a glimpse of the legendary Stirk starter buttons. “I pay my subscription, I’m bloody well entitled to see Sarah’s Wimbledon strawberries” said factory worker Paul Manning 52 from Hereford. “I even missed the ten minute freeview, coz my mate Derek tweeted that Stirk was going into the shot centre for ten minutes at 11pm”. The Sky statement read: We apologize unreservedly for the navy dress Sarah wore during last nights broadcast, through which no nipples were visible. This was due to a wardrobe malfunction. However we do intend to rectify this during our US Masters coverage and assure viewers that plenty of bridge rivets will be on show, both from Sarah and special guest Colin M...
