My "Can you break 100?" Entry
/According to NBC's Dan Hicks, Golf Digest has received over 4000 entries now for the pre-U.S. Open reality show.
Well, I've decided to enter and need your help. Here's the challenge:
Can you break 100? Tell us what you think you would shoot, and why you should be the Golf Digest reader in the foursome with three celebrities. Max 100 words.So here's what I wrote:
Yes, I can break 100. I feel a 99 is definitely possible, particularly if I'm inspired by playing with one of my heroes, such as Donald Trump or Danny Gans. I should be the Golf Digest reader playing because (A) I love famous people and what little they stand for, (B) I can explain to viewers how Torrey Pines is one of the great missed opportunities in golf course design history, pointing out the remarkable sameness of the bunkering, the horribly insufficient use of the clifftop edges, and the almost completely lack of risk-reward opportunities, and finally, (C) I can tell viewers about all of the great things the USGA should be doing but is afraid to try.
What do you think? How would you touch it up before I hit the send button?
