"And of course, there's always the chance he'll get shot."

From reader Don, who watched today's opening round of the Farmer's Insurance Open telecast on Sky Sports with John Hopkins sitting in as one of the announcers:

So he's lumbering on about why he figures Tiger won't match or better Jack's major record. Towards the end he says something to the effect:

'And of course, there's always the chance he'll get shot. Look what happened in Arizona just the other day. I've written about this before...'

That woke me out of my GC stupor. What a whacked out conflation of sport and who knows what...?

Sadly, he was correct, it's not the first time Hopkins has made the suggestion.
