I wish I could find the video of it, but during today’s broadcast of the Farmers Insurance Open, Frank Nobilo compared the look of Harry Higgs to the former Canadian great George Knudson.
Here is a picture of Knudson And here is one of Higgs (not from today but very similar outfit)
How about @frank_nobilo
name checking Canadian great George Knudson at #FarmersInsuranceOpen telecast, I think referencing the shades look of @harryhiggs1991— J Dalby (@rj_dalby) January 26, 2020
Every new golfer starts off struggling with the language of the game of golf. Golf has a number of terms that are far from obvious as to their meaning. Mark, from GolfDiary.com, sent me an e-mail suggesting that it might be useful if I had a link to an article on golf terms from his site. It checked it out and it seemed reasonable.
The article contains 5 chapters and a summary. The chapters are:
I even learned a couple myself.
There is one term we used growing up in Tillsonburg that is probably only known to the locals. It’s a “Mary Overland”. Mary was an avid golfer who wrote a weekly byline in the Tillsonburg News recapping the Tillsonburg Golf and Country Club‘s Ladies’ Day events. The title of her byline was “Bunker to Bunker”, hence when a golfer hits from one sand trap and ends up in a second sand trap it is known to a select few as a “Mary Overland”.
I have made my typical comparison of the President Cup teams using the site’s Power Rankings.
As can be seen in the rankings below, the U.S. team many more currently high ranked players with six players having a higher power index than the International’s second ranked player.
I would expect the U.S. Team to win handily, as they always seem to do.
