Mark Calcavecchia bogeys way to first win in 2 years
It wasn't pretty, but it's still a win. Mark Calcavecchia bogeyed two of the last 3 holes, but clung on to a one-stroke lead over Heath Slocum, who missed a 3 foot 10 inch putt on the last hole, playing with Calcavecchia. It was an excruciating loss for Slocum, who last week had to console his high school teammate Boo Weekley after missing a 3 foot 3 inch putt on the final hole of regulation to lose the tournament (after a playoff). I wonder what the two will talk about this week?
Mark won the PODS Championship. I never heard of PODS before, or this tourney. But I do know it's not sponsored by Apple.

It is amazing to me how many golfers cannot close the "deal" for a win these days. The pro golfers of eras past were seemingly better at playing to win versus playing not to lose.

Fair enough, Booh Weekly then Heath Slocum....buddies, believe it or not had a short putt to win or tie in back-to-back weeks, and missed. Slocums putt was a good putt though, weekly's was not.
Buy hey, guys have been doing this ever since golf was invented! Scott Hoch at the Masters, Doug Sanders at the British, it's being happening all along, were just spoiled by this guy who doesn't.
Does Calc's fat 'ol belly add to his allure with his female fan base? I for one say yes.
