“It’s a pleasure to meet you Mr. Stewart! I didn’t even recognize you without the knickers!” Ever the gentleman and joker, he said, “No problem, I get that all the time, and please, call me Payne.” As he stood up to make his way to the locker room we shook hands again and I wished him luck. He took a few steps towards the door and turned back to me, saying “It’s too bad you picked David Duval to win, ’cause I’m gonna kick his butt! “

Tiger will retire at 40. With the news that Tiger Woods has just eclipsed the one billion dollar mark in career earnings, we all know he’s not playing for the money. Hell, that kind of money is earning him enough in interest to keep some small countries going!

Who wants to see someone win the Cup without winning the last event? That would be like the Lakers winning the NBA Finals even if the Magic won the series because they won more games in the playoffs than Orlando.

If you ever have a chance to be a guest there, to me it is worth a trip accross the country to spend a few days with the folks in Tequesta to see how the other half really live.
Read MoreJupiter Hills Club – How the Top One Percent Live – Part 1
The black tees on the Hills course stretch the course to 7344 yards and it plays to a par 70. The course rating from these tees rises to 77.3 and the slope of 152 is almost at the USGA limit of 155. If the sinister appearance of the special matte black scorecard and the “dead man walking” look you’ll get from the pro shop staff aren’t enough to intimidate you, the opening 5 hole stretch most likely will.

Hopefully one day we’ll all look back on July 19, 2009 as the day we all witnessed the ghosts of Old Tom Morris and Bruce Edwards guide Tom Watson around the famed links of Turnberry’s Ailsa course to his sixth British Open Championship.

New clubs promising more distance, better accuracy and better feel seem to be released every 6 months, and the USGA is scrambling to keep a muzzle on any technology that might make the game too “easy” to play. Ironic then that for the last 100 years, despite all the improvements in golf club technology, balls that go way further, courses that are playing faster and greens that roll truer, that the average golfer still shoots around 100. As David Feherty once said: “Maybe we’re all supposed to stink at this. It’s our punishment for playing this insane game.”
