The 15th Club in the Bag
On Tuesday, players were asked what the most important thing would be to shoot well at this weeks PGA Championship. I remember Els and Clarke stating “patience,” and “6 inches between my ears.” Then there were others that stated, “if the wind blows, this may be the hardest course I have ever played.” I think we all know who said that. In other words, watch the interviews after today’s round, and I bet those with positive attitudes are the ones to watch, and those who complain about factors of the course will fade away (thus my comment early in the week regarding Clarke). I also predicted Vijay and Mickelson with their driving accuracy would finish better than Els and Tiger, despite Els and Tiger being favored by the oddsmakers. Els is making me look bad, but I’m sticking with my gut feeling. Jerry Kelly hasn’t teed off yet, but he is my darkhorse pick…he had the same attitude as Clarke, positive and complimentary of the course.
