sorry i missed this OP

Well, Retief is looking good again this year - for his opening round anyway. Tiger shot even which appears to be very good on this course. Luke Donald also shot even... I think we will see many more good things out of young Mr. Donald in the coming years.

I wish I could watch this coverage right now. Anyhoo here's the leaderboard:

Hmm. Adam Scott making a little move early today, as is Funky Fred... I hope Weir can shoot decent today and at least make the cut. Looks like the cut line will be at about +3 or +4. Well, too early to tell I guess.

In other golf news, I won closest to the pin last night. wooooooooo :beer:

A hearty congrats to Patt. It was a 3 way tie but he picked #2 and #3 so he wins.
