Iron Will and Tadd

Wow! What nice surprise to what I anticipated as a relatively boring weekend of golf on TV. First was the fact that Iron Will Mackenzie was still in the hunt and that last weekends performance was not a fluke. Golf needs fresh faces and attitudes like Will Mackenzie. Given that Tiger was not in Hawaii, and who can blame him as everybody needs a break from work, the tournament was actually quite fun to watch. Add to that the performance of the young 16 year old Tadd Fujikawa and it was one of the more entertaining golf events. Personally, I think the folks at The Golf Channel did an outstanding job of hosting the Hawaii events. It will keep the major TV networks honest.

Ever wonder about where the official rules of golf come from? Check this Rules of Golf link out!
The game of golf is loaded with tradition. Do you ever wonder about a rule or why it came to be? The USGA in conjunction with the R & A in Scotland writes, interprets and maintains the Rules of Golf to guard the tradition and integrity o the game.
