Well, it is that time of year again, when amateur golfers sit in front of their TV sets and pray that some of the biggest stars will dunk a ball in the water when they reach the 17th at Pete Dye’s notorious Sawgrass.
I’m sure all of us who have played it have tales to tell — I dunked two in the water — and I’d love to hear them. Feel free to comment and give me your story about encountering golf’s most discussed hole.
In the meantime, I’m packing up Jen and Syd and heading to my parent’s for the weekend — so no blogging for a couple of days.Keep yourself occupied.
Check out Live at the 17th.
