If you thought you heard champagne bottles popping outside your window last night, it was just the PGA Tour celebrating what happened at the Honda Classic yeaterday in south Florida.
Not since the 2008 US OPEN, when Tiger beat Rocco Mediate in a 19 hole playoff, has Golf's ratings been this high, or as Tiger would say (" BACK IN THE GOOD OLD DAYS, WINK WINK!!!").
Between the new young guns, (Dustin Johnson, Ricky Fowler etc), Rory at only 22 years old, to go along with Phil Mickelson and Tiger, the glory days of monster ratings like in the early 2000's is about to go off the charts.
Lets get back to Mcilroy, Golf's new #1 player in the world, defending US OPEN champion, and dating hot women, (currently Tennis pro Caroline Wozniacki), Ahhh reminds me of my days back at SIU, (OK I WASN'T GOLF'S #1 PLAYER, LOL) this my friends is exactly what the PGA needed.
The timing of this could not of been better for the tour, with the Masters in four weeks and the other three majors coming up in June, July, and August, get ready for the Sunday drama of old with one difference, the Tiger intimidation factor to these young guns, who can hit it longer and chip it closer is long gone.................
PS. The ACC tournament starts thursday, should be a great four days. Hey KC have you lost weight your looking good!!! (inside joke).
