Tied 17th, swing so much better than previous times ( comparing his video form last year with old stuff on V1 download).... just need that panamanian sun to divert a few rays onto your putter and its game over for the others!

Good luck!

Thanks for posting the links re. schedule, Yoda. It is a great move for the "Nationwide" to go "global" and have tournaments in Australia and New Zealand. If there is one thing that has set some of the European/ Rest-of-world great players apart from their competitors in US is their ability to travel and win. Seve saw it as a crusading mission ( almost class war in his case), Gary Player travelled for competition itself( but demonstrated that his country was far more that Apartheid) and Ernie took over his role. They all won majors!!!

The real U.S. greats did travel and THE OPEN owes much to Arnold Palmer and co. for their airmiles!

It will be tough for some guys with family ties but a young buck will gain enormously from an adventure "down under". Aussies are some of the toughest competitors on this planet!! ( please note that the English cricket team have been soundly thrashed by Aussies over the last 2 months - despite beating them in England only 20 months ago. An Aussie with something to prove, playing on home territory, is a beast!)
