…had a six footer on the 72nd hole to win. He stood over the ball with his new belly putter and struck the ball solidly, seemingly on the correct line but it never fully turned as he putted it through the break and it lipped out. Garcia was devastated. He had missed his best chance to win the most important major to the Europeans players. He was going to a playoff and you just knew he had no chance in the playoff. Harrington birdied the first hole…

…p the fourth supplement I was very upset because that meant I had to get a new one; since there was no more room and they couldn’t possibly get another supplement in there.

…you a chance to recharge and rediscover yourself. It can open your eyes to new and wonderful things and give you a lifetime of great memories. The worst part about a great trip is the build up and waiting before you go. I always get itchy trigger fingers and get really ancy to go.

…and of course that little place called Ayia Napa. Ayia Napa has become the new Ibiza of Mediterranean. I had heard for years of its craziness and we weren’t disappointed when we arrived. I have to admit, it’s not really my taste as I really don’t like clubs and techno music in the least but you can’t help but be around it because it is on constantly-everywhere, even in the hotels.
