Even if Watson doesn't pull out The Open Championship, he's the pride of KANSAS CITY!

He's 59 YEARS OLD :shock: :shock: and he is leading after 3 rounds.

THE AMAZING TOM TERRIFIC!

:D:D:D
Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
And his tears fall and burn the garden green

    Tom is the reason I am still awake. I have to get up and watch his final round but dammit to hell I can't get to sleep!

    This is truly an amazing story.

    golf being such a solitary, introspective game you've got to wonder
    what is going through his mind.

    his focus is quite intense.

    let's hear it for the old guy!
    Nice shirt.

    I hope he wins. It seems like he always plays a pretty good first round (since he's been in his 50's) in the majors......but NOTHING like this. This would be one of the greatest wins in sports history.

    Personally I think he's trying to steal the "old-guy champion" thing from my boy Jamie Moyer but whatever.

    Not really since he's been leaving putts from that distance short for like 35 years now.

    There wasn't anyone that wasn't pulling for Watson. Reilly's piece at the end of the day was awesome! That was great to watch... anticlimatic, but great.

    Monday Moanin'
    Still feeling down over The Watson collapse.
    My favourite golfer for years and years and....
    You knew he would tank in the playoff,he was crushed from missing the 8 footer on 18.
    Same thing happened to Garcia two years ago.It's hard to shake off that last missed putt for the big "V".
    Never thought I would see him THIS CLOSE for #6.Oh well,great try TOM.
    After the loss I felt so emotionally drained I wanted to just lay down and sleep.
    Still love ya' Tom.
    Next year at St.Andrews maybe?The Road Hole owes him one.
