Great Finish to British Open!

Those of you who missed watching the last nine holes of the British Open on Sunday missed a truly fantastic finish! The lead changed on almost every hole. Young Argentinean Romero didn't have a single par on the back nine -- he had 6 birdies, 2 double bogie's and a bogie for a net one under for the nine!

Congrats to Paddy Harrington on his first win at a Major, most deserving! I had to ask myself, if Tiger, Stricter, or Cink had won and then paraded around draped in "Old Glory" the way Paddy did with the Irish flag, what would the Euro tabloids be saying today?

But what the hey! It was a great tournament with no run-away winner that was suspenseful thru the four play off holes. And everybody agrees four playoff holes is better than one hole "sudden death" playoffs for Majors and certainly better than coming back the next day for 18 holes.

It's been 40+ years since I lived in Scotland, I'd forgotten that it stays daylight 'til 10 p.m. during July!
