For any golfers or golf fans ...
I respect Nick Faldo for his strength of mind under pressure. But I find he is very harsh in his public judgments of other golfers.
Nevertheless, he is interesting ...
I admire Tom Watson. I really like Freddie Couples, for his natural play and easy going attitude.
In the first two rounds those three will be together. Cool ...

Here is what Nick says:
Faldo is paired in the first two rounds with Fred Couples and five-time Open champion Tom Watson.
"I'm delighted with my draw," Faldo said. "If I'm feeling intense, I'll go and talk to Tom. If I want to feel relaxed, I'll talk to Freddie. That's a great threesome."

Agree with all those statements BUT.... he was one of the 'Its too tough' whiners early in the week too. What I will give him credit for is he admits its been a challenging LOVE/HATE thing all week even between shots. Really glad Phil won and saw a family GROUP hug while they waited for the final group to finish and the engraver to finish working on the claret jug.......WestCoastJoe wrote:Awesome.
