Tom Watson

Brad and I spent a good deal of the past weekend watching the British Open. I have a new respect and admiration for Tom Watson ... first of all, how cute is he!?!


And to hear him talk - often with tears welling in his eyes - about the "spirituality" of the course, how his old friend and caddie was looking down on him and, even despite a heartbreaking loss, congratulating the winner and fessing up to his mistakes ... very cool.

It's always good to see old-school athletes that truly love and respect the game that they play. It would have been an amazing story had Tom Watson won the Open, but I think it's pretty inspirational anyway.
