Can A Guy Wearing Detroit Lions Gear Really Win his Second Major?


Most people harp on the fact that guys that have won major championships can fall back on that "experience" when faced with similar situations.

This can't be said about Ben Curtis. In 2003, at the Open Championship, Curtis had one "moment" putt, on 18, and cashed it, but it was Thomas Bjorn who handed the Claret Jug to Curtis.

Now, the guy rocking the NFL gear is trying to do what Payne Stewart did while rocking NFL gear in 1989 - win the Wanamaker Trophy.

A buddy of mine made a great point though. As much as fitness is talked about, these are the moments it is a real factor on the links. A guy like Curtis, who doesn't look like he's going to be posing for the Swimsuit issue anytime soon, is having to play 36 holes in one day against a guy like Sergio Garcia, who looks as fit as he ever has. I guess all those Michelob Ultras are finally paying themselves back.

They used the exceptional quality [url=http://www.uggbootsugg4u.co.uk]ugg boots[/url] of their sheepskin and wool to create functional comfort footwear in that once considered ugly boot style . And they are as "ugly" as UGG boots too . White gold rings are in fashion [url=http://www.cheapuggmittens.co.uk]ugg boots on sale[/url] and depict modernity and elegance . And the men also begin to pursue for fashion and put [url=http://www.uggjimmychoo4u.co.uk]ugg boots jimmy choo[/url] on the snow boots . In my opinion,the color is very [url=http://www.uggaustranlia4u.co.uk]ugg australia sale[/url] beautiful . Now I'd like to share some good suggestions [url=http://www.uggbootspink.co.uk]ugg boots[/url] for you . But you've to understand that people ended up being intended for humans . Nike Shox by its [url=http://www.uggbootsoutlet4u.co.uk]ugg boots uk outlet[/url] straightforward look win the favor of individuals.[/p]
