I’ve been watching the final round of the Target World Challenge since it came on the air at 3pm. If I look out the window I see 10 inches of fresh snow from last night and this morning. I think I know where I’d rather be…on the golf course.

While Tiger Woods isn’t exactly running away with the tournament today, but there really hasn’t been a question who is going to win. After not playing any competitive golf since September 30th and not even picking up a golf club until early December, many people wondered what Tiger’s game would look like. He answered those questions by setting the course record on Friday and following it up with the 2nd best score posted on Saturday to take a 6 stroke lead into today’s final round. Jim Furyk closed the gap in the middle of the round, but Woods is back in control.

It’s funny to listen to some of the commentary during the professional tournaments. For the pros it’s a bad break when they hit the pin and if they hit the wrong level of a green they missed their mark. Any time I can hit the flag stick I’ll take it. Most of the time when I hit a green anywhere, I have a better chance of getting in the hole with 2 more shots instead of having to chip before I take out the putter.

It’ll be the end of March or early April before the sticks get any use on a Michigan golf course, but I’m already getting the itch to play after watching some golf on TV.
