Smith Tops US Open Leaderboard

"Today at the US Open, newcomer and amateur Richard Smith shot an outstanding 64 to claim a six shot lead after the first round of arguably the toughest of the four majors.................."

Ok, so who is this Richard Smith? Well it's me. Yes I know i am not really at the top of the leaderboard but we can all dream can't we!!!

As the first round of the US open gets underway today everbody will be wondering if the inevitable tough conditions will play into the hands of one Zach Johnson. After winning a very tough Masters by playing very steady golf is it possible that Johnson could win again.

It is certainly a possibility.

However, I am rooting for Justin Rose to produce his first major after some very solid performances this season.

Golf Balls or Easter Eggs

Hi Guys,

Hope you all had a great Easter Holiday and did not eat too many Choccie Easter Eggs or Golf Balls for that matter.

So how about that for a "CRACKING" (no pun intended) golf tournament. This Masters will live long in the memory for being a total rollercoaster ride for all involved. The players and the fans

However at the end of the day it went to the guy who drove the ball well and kept it in the fairway.

Our congratulations go to Zach Johnson who produced a fantastic final round to see off all challengers including Tiger and lift his first major title.

Lets hope other tournaments take notice of what has happened at Augusta and make the game more of athinking and pressure situation.

All the Best

Richard
