"I counted about 300 folks on the 18th hole Sunday at the senior event, from the blimp shot. Egads."

I just caught up on my weekend golf viewing (and you thought I didn't DVR the Legends of Golf!) and noticed all of the fans dressed as grassy mounds. Then I read Steve Elling in this week's Pond Scrum and it dawned on me why no one was there...

Elling: You mean the Champions Tour, where Scott Hoch and Kenny Perry -- guys with homemade swings -- were in a playoff Sunday? By the way, what brain surgeon in Ponte Vedra Beach is responsible for staging a Champions event 25 miles from a PGA Tour stop in the same week? I counted about 300 folks on the 18th hole Sunday at the senior event, from the blimp shot. Egads.
