Man Who Used Stick To Roll Ball Into Hole In Ground Praised For His Courage

June 19, 2008 | | Onion Sports

SAN DIEGO—A man who used several different bent sticks to hit a ball to an area comprised of very short grass surrounding a hole in the ground was praised for his courage Monday after he used a somewhat smaller stick to gently roll the ball into the aforementioned hole in fewer attempts than his competitors. "What guts, what confidence," ESPN commentator Scott Van Pelt said of the man, who was evidently unable to carry his sticks himself, employing someone else to hold the sticks and manipulate the flag sticking out of the hole in the ground while he rolled the ball into it. "You have to be so brave, so self-assured, so strong mentally to [roll a ball into a hole in the ground]. Amazing." The man in question apparently hurt his knee during this activity.

It was a pretty awesome US Open. How many more story-book endings is Tiger going to write before all is said and done?

23 is my guess. he passes Jack in three years with a US open win in 2011, then a few more, before a final surprise Masters win years after his knees have given out.

I think he'll get to somewhere around 23 as well (at least 20, but probably not more than 25). He's a fun guy to watch.
