    Teenyuck have you been following the unbelievable golf stories of late? Have you read about Hillary Lunke? http://www.lpga.com/entertainment/index.cfm?cont_id=192199

    How about the latest one, Ben Curtis?

    Hi Guest!

    I cannot believe Ben Curtis Won!!

    The area he grew up is just north of Columbus, where I am. The local news people were at his parents golf club yesterday to film, just in case, he did well. Local boy roars out of obscurity. After playing the Hooters Tour last year, I don't think anyone knew he existed.

    Unbelievable! My husband actually got teary eyed watching the local kid do so well.

    The front page of the Columbus Dispatch is running that story. They are calling him "Big Ben" because he went and did a sight seeing tour on Monday, before golfing! He liked Big Ben the best! What a great story.

    We have been golfing about once per week. My husband is golfing 3 times....he walks the course once or twice a week and on Saturday or Sunday, he and I go out and walk it. What a work out!

    I use one of those little carts to *drag* my clubs. He is actually carrying his. Whew!!

    My game has gotten a lot better. No lessons yet. I am finally getting better with my irons and realizing I am really bad with the woods. I need to practice, practice with those.

    The course finally dried out from all the raid and is so beautiful. Going out and walking and listening to the birds sing and the leaves rustle is so relaxing.

    It is so great to read about women like Hilary and Michele Wie. They are starting young and getting more and more opportunities. It is even funnier that Hilary said she and her husband don't golf. What a great way to make a living, though!

    How are you doing? Still golfing?

    What a great story, great stuff!! If you can, email me the newspaper so I can read the local response. Golf is such a great game and the scenery on some of these courses, unbelievable.

    I thought I would change the subject matter on the forum and touch on a subject that has positive notes.

    I'm into competition, it keeps the blood flowing. Later.

    Here is the link to the Columbus Dispatch.

    http://www.dispatch.com/

    They may make you register (free) to see the sports section, however, the front page is free. The sports section has lots more info on Ben and his family.

    Since he is *from here*, everyone is pretty excited.

    It is great when an underdog wins. And on such a hard course! And links style! I hope he keeps on winning and shows the critics that he was not a one hit wonder.
