The British Open

Can Tom Watson close it out tomorrow in the British Open? This would be one of the greatest stories in golf since Francis Ouimet beat Harry Vardon and Ted Ray to win the 1913 US Open. But with a slight twist. This time it is the season veteran who everyone said was past his prime taking on the young guns of the sport.

I have been a fan of Watson since I first began watching him play as a kid. I remember getting to see him in some events as a kid and heard stories of how good he was at Stanford from Bob Allard who played against him at Oregon State.

Good Luck Tom, I think I am safe in saying that most of the golfing world will be pulling for you on Sunday.
