I'll agree with a previous noter....I like Phil Mickelson to win,
although a win here for Norman would be nice!

| 2021.4 | Late picks but sincere honesty! | BRAT::LEARY | Let me go on.Like a blister in the sun | Fri Jun 16 1995 14:54 | 18 |
After one round 10 players broke par...Price in the lead by one
over Simpson with Norman and Mickelson somewhere close. I can't
wait to catch some of the Open this weekend. I'd have to say that
Pavin and Faldo were early picks of mine with Norman up there too.
Of course I want Corey over the blokes from across the river but
there is just something empathetically appealling about Norman.
Tough call this weekend for some Dead Heads out there...drive to
Vermont or stay on the Island for the tourney. No brainer for me
though...

Dead....anyday

Lee Janzen >> >> Turk Am I a prognasticator or what, don't I win something for win and place? :-) Anyway I was really rooting for Norman after the 3rd round, he played some great golf, but Sunday he got some real bad breaks and the putts just would'nt drop for him, and he hit some great looking putts that shoulda went in but did'nt. Corey, what can you say, he made the shots that a champion has to make down the stretch to win a major, just a fantastic performance. The par saver on 17, and, of course, the 4 wood approach at 18 were what really won him the tourney. I really like Pavin, cause he's about my height, and like him, I'm not too long off the tee, and I just found out, that like me he's a NY Giant fan. Congrats Corey you earned it. BTW I thought that the normally poor NBC coverage was very good, and very balanced between putting and full shots, I thought Johnny Miller was pretty choked up there right at the end, talking about Corey being the smallest, and still being able to win the Open. On the bad side I just can't take Trumpy as a golf analyst (barely as a football analyst). Dick Enberg tried a little too hard to dramatize things that did'nt need any extra milking (there was plenty of drama) but the rest of the guys did a great job, and all in all it was an enjoyable telecast.

I grew up in upstate NY, not far from Saratoga Race Track, I've gone there a fair bit, but I have never, repeat never come out ahead, so the ponies have not been good to me. Turk | |||||
