I don’t really watch a whole lot of golf. I’m not very good at it and I don’t think it’s that exciting, but occasionally I’ll get sucked in to the final round of a major. This weekend’s British Open Championship was one of those times.
It started on Thursday when 59-year-old Tom Watson posted a 5 under 65 to tie him for second place. I kind of figured he would fall off after that and fade into the back. In the second round he remained tied for the lead and I started to wonder if he could finish the way he started.
In an odd twist, Tiger Woods missed the cut in a major for only the second time as a professional so the spotlight was all on Watson.
