Old Tom

Unbelievable.  Nine months ago this 59-year old guy had his hip replaced.  Now he’s leading the Open by one shot entering the final day.  He regularly drove it out near his younger partners, but often chose a layup club.  And really steady putting…wow.  I’m three years older than this guy.  Many golfers his age have left the Senior tour…too tough.  Ross Fisher would have to wait five years TO BE BORN when Watson was winning his first of five Opens.  Some final pairing…except they put Tom with Goggin…Goggin was one year old in 1975…was he watching the TV from his crib?  Good luck Mr. Watson…You da man!
